My New Watch
 
Normally I'm a super frugal guy. Today, however, I trashed over 500 on this amongst other things:

Do you really own that? Someone sent me an ad for it awhile back and I thought it was a joke.

no offense to anyone, but both the watches in this thread look awful.

also, i really hate the leather strap style of watch/wristband. really pisses me off.

Maybe you can find a suit made of wood and some shoes made of wood to go with it. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I don't typically wear a watch, but I own 2 Tissots along with a few others.

edit: here is one of the the watches I own, can't seem to find the other Tissot, but I have owned that one for about 8 years.

Re: My New Watch
 
i personally don't think the stuff you wear makes you look good, you should make the stuff you wear look good.

considering i don't have that kind of confidence/charisma, i think this watch is really nice. should go well with a brown belt and scuffed up brown leather shoes (not boots, not dress shoes). assuming you are wearing a two button suit

Looks feminine.

Re: My New Watch
 
I want to get my boyfriend a watch for his birthday. I really like vintage. Are these too feminine (1940's-1960s)? I want to get him something similiar, not specifically these cause they're expensive.


I'm liking the shapes a lot.

you never replied after defending how much you like popped up collars voltron.

you kept claiming that it only worked on certain chirts, but never pointed out which shirts these may be.

i know ridiculously off topic, but i didn't want to start a whole new thread or bump that one.
