Way too busy for me. That’s not even considering the price

When I lived in Saudi Arabia, you could get all kinds of electronics not available in the States. I had a Casio that did all kinds of shit and I could play a game on it.

It alerts me of texts and phone calls and meeting reminders, which is convenient when I need my phone on silent, and I can even respond or answer calls.

It has an altimeter and barometer that I sometimes like looking at.

It also displays the time, which I've probably referenced a handful of times. I used to pretend look at my wrist to make a point about being late, but now it's probably only like half as funny since there's an actual watch there.

Everyone should have a watch that tells them how high they are.

He gave his groomsmen Rolex Subs. Not to sure about giving out watches that cost 450k. Thinking he is smarter than that...............

I'm a big pocket watch admirer ever since my grandfather gave me one when I was a boy. I have several vintage Waltham pocket watches and a Howard with a 14K white gold case. My preferred wristwatch is a Croton chronograph, the poor mans Rolex. I've always been intrigued with watches.

I thought Tudor was a poor mans Rolex.

I guess you learned something new today, you're welcome.:D

I love that Croton Aviator Sea Diver Chronograph from the 70's. Funkiest dial made. It reminded me of a vintage Rolex Daytona with the spread out sub dials. And the date function was flat out odd. Empty sub dial circle with an oddly placed date window.

I used to think that but most of luxury watches maintain their value and even appreciate. So it's probably much less egregious than buying an expensive luxury vehicle.

Very pleased with this watch that I designed for the squadron, made by RSC in Switzerland.
