Well, not every person has a cell phone stuck to their ....

I happen to work offshore on an oil rig and we are 1.) not allowed to have them with us on the rig, for safety reasons, 2.) would only tear them up if we did have them with us as we actually physically work for a living... and 3.) we respect our employers enough that we would not carry them at work if that was an option as we are being paid to work, and therfore we do....
nothing for show about it.... I need to know the time and so I wear a watch...

I'm different. I prefer my Kenneth Cole with Carbon Fiber face...it goes with my carbon fiber obsession! And has chrono for lap times.

I own the Rolex Submariner and its a very nice watch. I only wear it for special events and when it counts to make a good impression on someone e.i a business meeting. But I think that its going to go great with my camaro ( and prom ) so thats what i would recommend for you.

some of you folks are incredible. Saying that wearing a nice watch "is for show". Yep - that's what most people say about you and your Camaro - it's just to show off and to compensate for something lacking down there.

Get it? A Camaro is about enjoying the finer things in life - the aesthetics of the drive. It's exactly the same principle with a nice watch. A nice watch is about enjoying the passing of time. You have to tell the time, why not observe it with something that exquisitely hand made and beautiful? Not everything in life has to be boring-yawn-practical - like a nice watch, or a Camaro.

Camaro owners of ALL people should understand that.

I for one will never strap a POS plastic watch on my wrist. Just like you wouldn't drive a Lada.

I teach for a living. All cell phones are banned from classrooms and labs during class time. Most of my students wear watches now.

I teach Business classes at a community college which includes how to interview.

A metal band watch says that you pay attention to detail. A real plus in an interview.

A leather band says you're laid back.

During an interveiw, a glove box is where the cell is located.

I teach my students always, "Play to win."

I wear the Fossil Victory Red Camaro watch (#37 out of 50).

I wear a Casio pro-trek when I'm in the field. Serves me very well. solar powered, has a compass, reads temp, and barometric pressure, all very useful where I go.

On shore, I rock my casio for most things I do. If I dress up, I throw on my Lucien Rochat automatic, or my Citizen Black Eagle.

I have to admit, I do have a certain attachment to watches, but I don't think I would ever pay more than $500.00 for a watch.
