Obligatory Wristwatch Thread

[BobLoblaw]

If you're buying a Glock because you like the way they look, you probably would be interested in that. Or you could buy a Timex Ironman along with a case of ammo for the same price and still sport a consumable timepiece that no one gives a fuck about.

Almost certainly, it's a $400 Chinese made quartz watch. The Swiss and Germans are proud to place their mark on watches. Even in those cases, much of the time there is some Chinese components be it parts or labor.

I saw this on Glock's webpage. Kind of neat collectable for Glock fanboys. I'd probably buy something else if I wanted watch though.

4:30 dates on chronos are a disease.

I know that’s probably the most practical place for them on watches with 3 subdials but they still drive me nuts.

So wonderful. I want a Reverso badly, particularly a dual face. But I've never owned a rectangular watch and I have some mental block on that that I need to get over.

It’s the “perfect ratio” of rectangle. It doesn’t feel overly blocky like a Heuer Monaco

I have a duo as well. Different vibe - got this tribute mono face as it’s the 90th anniversary of the reverso this year and I wanted to let one of my sons choose the engraving as he has labeled it “his”

He loves he can see his missing teeth in right now

I’m a big fan of rectangular watches for dress, but I have to be happy with my small herd of classic 1990s Citizen Stilettos. A Reverso is a wet dream…

Yeah, but does it take Glock mags?
