Omega is Boss, too bad I cant afford one. My best is a Movado. But I do like my affliction watch, has a huge black skull case that opens to a fat face.

I wear the Fossil Victory Red Camaro watch (#37 out of 50).
A classic quality black or brown leather band that matches your belt and has as nice a shine as your dress shoes says attention to detail as well. Now if you are talking about a brushed leather like you find on many camp or outdoorsman watches then I would agree.

I currently own a Longines Flagship, Boliva Chronograph, Hamilton Dodson and a Citizen Ecodrive

It didn't cost as much as a Tag or a Rolex, but it's still a nice watch.

A t-touch is an amazing if you want something practical ... very helpful when out camping wth the compass n all.. and looks smart too

Seriously though, I wasn't aware the Camaro required a specific type of watch to be legitimate...... No offense intended but I don't quite get the correlation between watches and cars.
LOL ROFL, some of us are old school.

Nice I have the same watch! I'm actually kind of a watch whore. I have a ton. I really like Diesel watchs. This will be my next one I think it's really different. Might be a little crazy for some so they make it in monotone as well.

It's not about being old school. It's like comparing a car with taking the train, or an electric car with a V8. Not everything in life has to be practical. We don't live in a friggin 3rd world country - we can afford to enjoy the finer things in life. A cell-phone is an appliance - there's nothing "nice" about it.

Might as well tell your fiance that a toaster is more practical than getting a diamond ring to seal an engagement. The toaster is more practical than a ring. It's not "old school" it's dumb logic.

I have two watches that I wear.

A Citizen Eco-Drive Skyhawk: Blue Angels Edition and a Breitling Chronograph.

The watch doesn't make the driver though, it is definitely the car, oh yeah!

Back in Black

Last leg of My MBA at the U. I'm in the process of buying a watch. I've been very very partial to diver's watches. I'm getting a Rolex Anniversary Sub with my Graduation ring. But, I have to say, if I were to match up a watch with the Camaro like a wine to a meal, I have to say I'd pick a Chronograph for the Camaro. There are a few.

Tops is a Stainless Daytona with a white dial,

2nd is a Oakley Time tank. Why? It just looks bad ass like the Camaro. And after I shell out 5 gerrr for a Submariner, that what I'm gonna get. Check out the Oakley Minute Machine or Time tank. It's a funky watch but looks great.

Still holding out for a Z/28.
