I am a bit of a watch tart and I have one of these

www.tokyoflash.com is a brilliant place for fun stuff and http://www.wristdreams.com/ is munny munny munny

Day to day I wear a Tissot. I only wanted one because they used to give one for the Man of the Match at rugby league matches, and I quite liked the look of it. Titanium too, so it looks chunky but weighs little. (Unlike me )

Yep...my brother has this one

My latest watch, bought two weeks ago is one of these Swiss station clock watches.

If I find myself at 100m, or even 30m, under water, I feel the least of my problems would be water in my watch!

Want one! Want one!
Nice one Rob - see them advertised in the Grdauina...want one! want one!

Does the second hand stop at 12 momentarily before moving again, like on the big clocks in the stations?

I can't afford a new bike due to watch addiction, currently have 32, a manageable size as at one time I had over 200. The collection does not include "beaters" G-Shocks and the like, which I use for manual work.

I always wear at least a 100m rated watch while cycling, but don't trust that for swimming, then I want 200m and over.

The fashion is for now 40mm+ watches with at least a 20/22mm lug width, at that size most are going to have a bezel whether you want one or not.

It's an expensive hobby, it just doesn't seem like real money when I spend, I don't know why. I keep meaning to have just three watches, a "tool" watch, a dress watch and a beater and leave it at that, but I'm dreaming.

If anybody wants a link to a very friendly watch forum then pm me.

10/10 Mark - you're the man!
It is a similar thing as the n+1 theory for bikes...
I don't have expensive tastes but my thoughts lie in the clouds

I own an old G Shock DW-6900

The newer ones are a bit fugly but the classic g shock watches do the business for less than £100, sod the expensive divers watches
