What time do you wear?

Tireguy, I wear an Ikepod (gift from wife on son's birth) when I'm not wearing a cheap swatch. I love my Hemipode tho there's lots of sentimentality in that. If you find one used, a key to checking out how much it has been used/worn is sniff the wristband (I kid you not - they smell like vanilla extract (on purpose, I'm told)). Note, the brushed 'eggshell' scratches easily...

It's funny you ask as I equate my desire for the best quality audio gear with all of the finer things in life.I appreciate the beauty and simplicity of a hand crafted precision turntable or a WBT binding post.I'm no rich guy by any means,I probably own three pairs of jeans,five T shirts a couple pairs of socks,but on the wrist of the arm covered in the flannel shirt you will find a simple but elegant all stainless Rolex Oyster Perpetual with Jubile bracelet and fluted bezel.

the watch i enjoy wearing most is a large, clunky, sinn divers model. i can read the dial w/out glasses. very pratical - no WAF just like my stereo system - its sort of large and clunky too, but great sounds.

I currently have two watches. A 1978 vintge Rolex Sea Dweller and a Raymond Weil dress watch that I bought 10 years ago while the Rolex was being overhauled. I am currently lusting after a Patek Philippe Annual Calendar in rose gold. I received the Sea Dweller as a graduation gift from high school and have worn it for 21 years.

I haven't worn a watch or used an alarm clock for over 20 years. I threw my last watch (a seiko) in the Atlantic Ocean off the Outer Banks of NC. I refuse to get caught by the demands of others. Of course this means I'm self employeed (in the software industry). I just arrive early, finish before deadlines and supply solutions that just plain don't break. I advise anyone with half a change to give life without clocks a chance.
