How do I like my Invicta? Its fine for the $99 I paid for it. If I ever get in trouble, its heavy enough to make a fine weapon. :biggrin:
Ahhhh
Refreshing.
Watches aren't for me but seriously, if they're your thing I can at least see spending a reasonable amount like $100 on one.
I don't care how rich I ever was, you would never see me drop $500+ on a watch every 12 months just because I couldn't take care of them. Buying 10 of them to match everything you wear at one time for $5k would be fine, but not one every year just because you're a clutz.
Congrats on the new watch; it's pretty nice. It's not really my style though -- too busy.Son, most of my watches have had sapphire crystals. They still need replacement in 12 months.
I can get a Sapphire crystal for this watch if needed. It's usually the bezels and not the face taking the brunt of the damage.
.... Yet, the highly educated Alkemyst didn't think of doing this?? You mentioned that in the business world, it's a status thing - if I saw a scratched up watch, I'd be thinking "the status of that guy is that he's not bright enough to take his watch off while working with equipment."

Ahahahaha!You wouldn't be thinking "alpha male for the mother fucking win"?

I made a thread when I bought my Invicta back in May. I didn't get this much attention over it, not sure if I should feel bad or good about that.

Here's an idea: before you stick your hands in the racks, and scratch your watch to hell, take 5 seconds to take the watch off & put it in your pocket. When you're done, put it back on.
I would almost think that doing something like that was common sense. There's a huge number of professions where people do that. Hell, they do it with $20 Timex watches - dishwashers - take their watch off. Car mechanics - take their watch off. Carpenters and machinists often remove anything like watches or rings.

Hmmm... so I it's worth a $50 gamble?
Also...alkemyst is a flaming douche nozzle
You should feel proud, it means the members of this forum still have some respect for you, unlike some people.
Cool. I may be interested, have anything higher res so I can see some detail?
never said that, but i will continue to feed.
alpha males aren't insecure though, and you are extremely insecure. alpha males are secure, leaders, and dominant.
you are none of the above therefore you are no alpha male.
thanks for playing!
I have known a number of military pilots who wore Citizen Skyhawks, but personally I like mechanical watches and would have no use for a slide-rule bezel or any of the other features on that watch. To each his own - enjoy!
I myself am wearing one of these:
If you're sticking your hands in racks for day to day work operations, there is not a chance in hell that you pull in the $$ that you brag about.
Not to mention that one of the first things you ever learn about working in data centers / electronics labs etc is that you remove big metal objects from your person....
But it's Alky. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Actually the only 'M3' watch I'd consider is the LumTec M3.
There have been a few on CL, but the sellers never reply.

Is that watch for the partially sighted?
It's a nice watch in real life. There are tons of reviews on it. Google: Lumtec M3
Now that's a nice, classy, stylish watch. +1 for not having to overcompensate. Hell, you can barely even read the time on that monstorous piece of crap alky posted. I sure hope he didn't pay anything even close to that Amazon price (though I'm sure he'll say he didn't, he's got connections, personal jewler, dildo up his ass, blah blah....)
You don't know? IRL Alky is a trucker and posts all of from a smart phone while driving.
To go with that, I'm pretty sure that alpha males don't need to constantly tell everyone that they're alpha males (for the mother fucking win). :awe:

Man, you almost made me spray coffee out of my nose, not cool.
