Only about $650,000.00

Dayuum, I like that tag.

My current timekeeper.




Very easy to read at night when on the bike, and the Ti is light as a feather.

Here's mine:





Can't see the hands hardly at all.
Heavy as a sledge hammer

I've been using my pocket watches lately anyways.

We just came off a cruise over Easter weekend. I was eyeballing one of these (Tissot 2007 limited edition NASCAR watch) in the duty free shop. Don't know enough about watches to know whether the $1100 they wanted for it was a good price or not, so I passed.

I think I better get to of the Ulsse Nardin ones. Although I do like the binary watches.

I've got to head out of town on business the week after Badness. Last year, I was at a track day. It never seems to work out for me.

The binary watch seems to be simple enough. 8,4,2,1 for the hour and 32,16,8,4,2,1 for the minutes. Simple to read when you stare at subnet masks all day like I do. LOL!

I haven't worn a watch since the advent of cell phones.

Here is my current "watch".

Find me a person under 25 that wears a watch these days. I do, even with a cell phone, but I am way over 25. I have a feeling the watch business is in for a bad time.

I'm in the same boat. I don't wear a watch. I never have my cell phone far from me, and it has a clock that is adjusted by the cellular network so I never have to adjust it. : )

But I still like the binary watch! LOL!

I loved my Tag chronograph but it left me when a rent a car it was in was stolen.

Now I have a luminox similar to tread's but not titanium.

Can't beat the tritium (or some kind of gas)filled arms and markers for night viewing.
Never needs to see light to glow. 10yr warr on the tritium.

And this is similar to the tag I had.
Pretty sure mine had a red hand for the chrono, circa 1992.
