    How much did you spend on your current watch and what kind of watch do you own?

    My current watch is a Citizen that I got a few years back when Service Merchandise was closing its doors. I think I paid somewhere in the neighborhood of $150.00 for it.

    Do these count as watches? I have an old fossil watch somewhere, but I haven't worn it regularly since I started carrying a phone.

    i have two watches:

    a baume & mercier brown alligator strap watch i got for christmas a few years ago - about $1200

    and a krieger lunar chronograph that my dad handed down to me last year... not really sure how much it was since thet seem to be a small(er) watchmaker and i have seen very few (if any) places that sell them. closest estimate i could gather would be anywhere from $1000-$2500.

    i wear the krieger daily; haven't worn the baume & mercier in awhile.

    $19.95 timex that I got at Academy. Watches and sunglasses are the 2 things I refuse to spend money on. The more they cost, the faster I will break or lose them.

    Watches are one thing that I will gladly waste money on even though it's irrational for me to do so, however I've determined from now on that I'll pretty much never wear anything other than a steel Omega Seamaster. Classic design, goes with everything, always relatively affordable (around 1g) relative to other luxury watches, and reliable. It's basically the perfect watch for my needs. When I was younger I dreamed of getting a Patek Phillipe and I used to wear a semi-obnoxious Breitling, but from now on it's the Omega Seamaster or nothing for me.

    So true. I would never spend more than $20 for a watch and $10 for sunglasses.

    Gas station sunglasses are the only way to go. I think I have a Fossil watch somewhere but I don't know where it is. It's more fun to ask other people what time it is.
