I am not a jewelery guy. I wear my wedding ring, Trion:Z bracelet and a watch. Over the years I have become a huge watch fan. I like big watches since I have large hands and long arms (I am 6'8"). One that I love but have not been able to justify buying is the Oakley Minute Machine. I love the size and style but the $1200 price tag for something I can't wear every day is pretty steep. I run a gym so I am always banging my watch into machines and weights. Right now I wear a big Fossil with a face that is 1 3/4" across.

Any other watch fans out there? What do you guys like?

I just buy $10 watches, I had a yellow and gray nike one, which broke, then I had some cheap 10 dollar ones that also broke, Now i have no watch. Whenever i try to get through the day and I look at the time, it goes soo slow, So i prefer not to wear one.

This golf watch by suunto is very cool. It is way too big for me, but definitely sounds functional if you are an avid golfer. It does everything!

I also wear a Seiko kenetic. I've had it 8 years and it is getting a little small for me now, need to add a link. I think it is shrinking! Or.... my wrist is bigger now

Nice watch though, never needs batteries, I even swim with it on.

I don't wear one, because I'm only 15 and that isn't the teenage style. I just use my phone for the time.

Hmm.. Maybe its different here, but Adding a nice watch to the wrist looks amazingly stylish and adds a little nice touch.

Haha, where do I begin? I think it's something like "Hello, my name is Paul, and I have a watch problem.."

In somewhat regular rotation, I've got:

Omega Speedmaster Professional (Moon watch)
Breitling SuperOcean
Zenith Elite HW
Universal Geneve HW
Omega Seamaster
Zenith/Movado Museum HW
Longines Executive
Rado Diver Auto
Tag Heuer 2000
Swatch Body and Soul irony automatic
...oh and about a dozen others (lots of Swatches and Skagens).

Yes, I am nuts.

I have a Sinn 856 and a DOXA Military Sharkhunter 750T. I had a bunch of other watches that I've since sold since those two were my nicest and got the most wrist time.

Aerospace and Diving watches are some of my favorites, so it's no surprise I love your Doxa and your Sinn. Very sweet!

I don't remember the last time I wore a watch. Hmm.

Thanks ettsn!

I have been wanting to add a chronograph to the stable for some time now but I've held out due to other interests, the economy, etc. I've been eyeing the Sinn 103 since I can't afford a Breitling. Looks like you have a great collection!!

I've always wanted a Doxa Sub-300T with Orange dial........
I've spent most of my life golfing - the rest I've just wasted.

I am a Oakley guy through and through, have bought at least one new pair of sunglasses every year for the last 10 years, but I have never got into their watches. The last time I was in getting my prescription changed, the guy had this watch on and it is giant. I liked it, but its too big. For myself in the watch category, Im TAG heuer, have the Aquaracer Chrono

and just ordered the golf watch in white (plan to change the band to black after labor day and see if I like it) One day hope to have a collection like the fella a couple posts above. Would love to have a good Brietling, Rolex, and Omega.

That's a nice Aquaracer. I've got an older TAG Heuer 2000 Automatic (which was renamed the Aquaracer a few years back), but mines not a chrono.
