Starting to feel ashamed here.  Don’t think I’ve worn a watch at all in the 21st century.

I'm with you...but goe a bit further back than that. Seriously, I don't think I've worn a watch since the Mid-to late 1970s. Always hated the feel of it on my skin. Just a pecularity of mine.

Same can be said for rings. I like them, just can't wear them. Wife took  my wedding ring and had it fitted for her. Says if I can't wear it...someday I might just regret it. Still waiting.

I got a new Timex for Christmas.   I wanted something with more contrast between the face and hands so it would be easier for my old eyes to read. This fit the bill.

My God! I'd need a seeing-eye dog that could read the data and bark out the time to me.😀

 

It's hard to beat a Timex. I have three and one is on my wrist everyday. Keep time better than my Rolex.

Anyone have a recommendation for a place that can clean my old Seiko Sports 100?  It's been in my desk drawer for years and today I put new batteries in it. It seems to run fine, but the buttons are bit sticky. I'm near Crossville, so would prefer a place near here.

Get some jewelry cleaner and a toothbrush. Scrub it down with that and it will likely accomplish everything you’re after.

Picked up a new leather strap for the Speedy. Wasn’t expecting much at $20 but it surprised me.

I wear a cheap Timex Ironman at work. I have a couple nice Casios,a Bulova Marine Master and a Swiss Army watch but I never wear them.

I quit wearing watches a couple of decades ago.  About three years ago, I started having an hankering for one again.  We do a lot of antique and thrift store shopping for my wife's craft business. We happened to be in Bargain Hunters over on Chapman Hwy, not long after and I spotted an Armitron Sport watch that was gray and orange (Great UT colors) for $10.  I bought it and have been wearing ever since. No clue how old it is, but after three years, I still haven't replaced the battery!!! I consider it to be a fantastic buy!!!

I bought the Swiss Army watch at a pawn shop in Nashville on Nolensville Pike for $5.It runs like a “Swiss watch”😂
