Any of you guys have a fetish for watches, since i was a kid ive had a fetish for dive watches, over the years ive bought and even lost a few.

My fav all time dive watch is a citizen JP2000 with the depth gauge, an all time classic citizen and a legend of the dive world, just got a new one to replace my old one, wish i could link a picture up, but im computer illiterate.

I suppose in the new world of mobile phones, many people arnt wearing watches any more.

Any other watch collectors or appreciators here?

I love Watches!!
Other than a wedding ring I don't wear jewelry so I like a nice watch.
I don't have any of the top brands anymore (had to sell them to raise funds, used to have a Breitling that I picked 2nd hand) but I have been saving up for my 40th and its a good excuse for me to buy a Omega Seamaster, I got a Tag Heuer for my 30th
My everyday watch is a Casio Ediface Wave ceptor


And when I'm running my Scout troop I use a Casio G-Shock
This watch is huge and as I have found out with all my other G-Shocks unbreakable



I also have a watches from the like of Tissot (it's my dress watch), and one of the first Animal Watches.

I got a Roolex in Malaysia   


lasted 10 years.

Omega seamaster, nice watch, only thing im not keen on is the flimsy looking crown on the 3 oclock position, its a nice dress watch, but spearfishing id rip that crown off accidently, ive done it to 3 good quality dive watches.
I like a crown on the 4 or 2 oclock position, surrounded by guards on the case of the watch.
Not only for protection of the crown, but if the crowns at the 3 oclock position it tends to dig into your hand and can be very uncomfortable, but as a dress divers the omega is a nice watch, im pretty sure it was used by james bond in most early bond movies.

I have a seiko 'tuna can' divers, the same watch bond used in an early movie.

If you like G-Shocks, check out the new 'Rangeman' killer watch, it comes in green and black, apparently the best most advanced G-Shock ever made and has been a big seller within the armed forces, its similar to a mudman, has a barometric pressure gauge, digital compass, temp, etc etc, selling for $300 at the cheapest, which is very cheap for a decent watch imo,  im no fan of digital watches, but i might get the green model, the Barometric gauge and temp witch can be used underwater has me sold for fishing, i think this will be my first digital watch in 25 years...check it out.

Im with you, i love watches, if your going to have something on your wrist you look at many times a day, it might as well be something you love.
