Nice. You have almost made me buy a couple more watches. So far, I have been able to convince myself that I have too many already. What is it with us gun guys and watches?
What about knives?
We've got a thread for that, too!

A lot of us are "knife guys," too! This photo isn't from today, but it was handy to start the thread off. My new MicroTech Troodon (OTF auto knife).

This was my first "real" watch. A first anniversary gift from my wife (a long time ago!). It's a long discontinued model. Breitling Colt Ocean Automatic (their cheapest model).
Same thing with knives. My latest aqusition.....What about knives?

This one just wants to jump onto my wrist. Love. It! It's a beast with "presence!"
It's insanely accurate (especially for the price). It's +/- 0 seconds since July 12th.
Smooth sweep second hand.

I like seeing all the timepieces. I'm just too set in my ways. I EDC the exact same things year after year, including the old Sea Dweller that after daily wear for 37 years has a permanent place on my wrist.
Well... a Sea Dweller is nothing to sneeze at! Nice watch! Let's see it!
Perhaps the "sexiest" of the G-Shock "squares" (IMHO). GW-S5600-1JF.
47 grams of carbon fiber and titanium goodness!

I'll add in here, if you don't mind -
I'm a simple SEIKO guy

And my most favored/ daily wear watch -
SEIKO SNJ031 "Arnie" Tuna re-issue/ H581 Solar powered movement
Swapped the green shroud for black, and the green silicone band for a more traditional SEIKO Diver's band. This will be getting a black stainless bracelet soon.
These two watches will likely serve me for the rest of my life, but I would like to add one more at some point - a brushed stainless version of this "Arnie", with brushed shroud and brushed bracelet.

Don't get too happy - other than a couple other old pieces that I don't wear, these two watches are all I have. Maybe I'll dig a couple of them out in the next day or so, not that they're worth much for photos (likely even less for wearing).

Haha... any watch will do! The majority of mine are Casios.
Here's my one Seiko.
There's a story behind it:
