I've got 2 cheap ass watches for times like today.
Daylight savings time.
I can figure out how to change it in a couple of days but, next time it rolls around I have already forgotten so I just have 2 cheap ass watches, set one hour apart.
It's got to be alzheimers :)
Could just be plain laziness. :lol:

In the spirt of eveything going on right now how about a radioactive watch.....


No need for a lightsource to charge up the lume on these badboys, they used hydrogen 3 filled tritum micro gas tubes that glow all by themselves for 20+ years....

i have a bunch of cheap watches and they never last more than a year.. but i wear my submariner all the time, I ride with it on without fail.....i even work on my stuff with it on...its 6 years old and with the exception of a couple dings and scratches on the case it has no problems.

I will send it in for the recommended 7 year tune up though.

Rolex AD wont touch it due to the age and discontinued parts.

The guy who has it is an ex rolex service center worker who now specialises in vintage rolex restoration. He comes with a shitload of reccomendations from the guys on the rolex forums.

The watch is toast really, the main axle is broke and it wont run for more than 3 seconds.

Its gonna be back to being perfect tho :cool:

There are 2 rolex stores at my work. I stop in and check them out every once in a while but really could never see spending that much on a watch that I will break doing something stupid.
