That’s nice. It’s a classic watch, but like... remixed, with your personal style. I like it.

Thanks homie, I like to call it 'modern timeless'

Style, man. Style.Rolex's are nice, but you have to keep them up, cleaning is no cheap. My new to me I-phone 5S tells me what time it is. My car has a clock, what else is nessessary?
I honeslty dress the same way I did as in High School, jeans, start shirt or t-shirt, tennis shoes. I have dressing up, my definition of dressing up is a shirt with collar.
I have always wanted a Rolex Submariner, on our honeymoon I purchased a Seiko digital, one of the first, I still have it, though it doesn't work. (40 years ago). My son gifted me a Tag Haeur for Christmas many years ago, and I wore it for a year and it is in my dresser. Since carrying a cellphone, I stopped wearing a watch, the phone is more accurate, and the watch is heavy. Many times an accurate watch is important when navigating, but with electronics being so prolific, a watch became unnecessary. The only jewelery I wear is a wedding band, and when on the boat I removed it, my wife wasn't happy to discover that fact, but I still have my finger. A trip down to the engine room and rings don't fare well there, very large moving things that have no feelings.
Baller... @memphsdad of course you rock an Omega.

What style are you leaning toward? I have several but, the Omega Speedmaster is my favorite. I have 4 or 5 of those. Gave one to my brother on the anniversary of the moon landing...he loves it.
I’m not sure I would goto the moon without a GMT.
The service cost of the Omegas always turned me off.
I wear the sub to the office a good bit, but anymore this has been my goto
It’s an overpriced timed, but I get a lot of compliments on it from all of the other “desk divers” I know.
I really want my next to be a two tone date just with the jubilee band. Trying to channel my inner 1980s business person.

But you own a Rolex? lmfao - everybody in the watch world knows that Rollies are the most finicky little bitches when it comes to needing service and acting right. That being said, I will own one eventually just because.
As far as every day use goes, I prefer my Luminox for the simple fact that I can get it serviced wayyyy more places and I don't mind if I beat it up a bit. Oh, and it's not an automatic so it doesn't need a winder. https://luminox-usa.com/products/f-22-raptor-9241-m
And lastly, I still wear good old G-Shocks for everything that might include hard work - daily to work, sidejobs, the gym, etc etc.
Been thinking about picking up an Oris or a Tissot a lot lately, I like what they bring to the table for a (mostly) more affordable price range.
