So… watches?

I'm addicted to watches & high end basses - at least I was - got many of my dreams & stopped

Probably 10 good watches - I don't buy fancy jewelry types but sturdy fine movement types - been wearing a Glycine Combat or Airman Double 24 GMT lately

My limit is about $3k
 
I just saw a single-arm watch that I'm quite interested in. I have a "titanium quartz" that I have to wear around certain family members around the holidays, most of the time I only wear a Samsung Galaxy in my pocket. My first chronometer was a mean early 2k's Nokia fixed-antenna half-brick.
 
I haven't worn a watch while playing since high school. I wear a watch to work. It's the very first thing I shed when I walk through the door. I've become accustomed to wearing two 'rubber' bands around my right wrist. They read : "Love Conquers Hate" with an 'Equal' sign on them. One to wear, one to give the anyone (friend or potential friend) who notices, and wants to start the conversation...'cuz 'merica, that's why!

I wear a few watches and regularly wear a Tag Heuer Formula 1 and a Bulova. My very special watch that I wear occasionally is a 1969 Omega Speed Master 'Moon Watch' that was handed down to me. I have to be careful with it, because it has apparently been worn on the moon but is not waterproof.
