Watches: mens mechanical facination

by elderelite in

lots of guys have a mechanical facination, be it cars or building things or one of a hundred other ways.

one area in particular is watches.

i have a few that i love.. a personal fav is my tissot sea star 1000. cant post a pic atm but its an awesome watch.... .

EE, watches are all very complicated... but:

For worship, I choose Patek Phillippe. For every other occasion, I chose the divinely inspired clock app on my phone.

Cheers!

i have decided to reserve today as the day i shall revere the watchmaker.. may the watchmaker (blessed by he who makes things tick) watch over you and increase the complications in your life.. cheers.

Caedes: My work here is complete! Thanks to the three poster rule... The Watchmaker (blessed be he who makes things tick) will surely prolong my life by granting me a few more seconds of time.

Chariklo: I forgot that these threads are timeless, my original post was on Wednesday. Hammers are used in watch repair from time to time, so I know that they are a powerful tool for "getting things done"...

Glenster: Badfinger appears to be obsessed with money and not time. Unless, you feel that "time is money"...

Busy busy.... tick tock.

When 'this' means 'that', 'you' means 'someone else' and 'shortly' means 'so far in the future you will be long buried and forgotten'

Aussie Oz, Great advice! I find that once I get my attitude in check, I make better personal AND financial decisions.

No I am but a lowly IT professional, the sacred role of watch repairer is reserved for the devoutly spiritual priests...

Thanks for asking.

Just remember there are only a few timezones left to pay homage to the Watchmaker (blessed be he who makes things tick).

Make your life complicated while you still can....

One way or another, I'm going to beat this thread into success. (success for me is three posters other than myself)...

Dear FA,

A coffee pot is not nearly as complicated as a watch, therefore my god is more powerful than yours...

Although I hear that Juan Valdez creates these magic beans that bring a nation to it's feet every morning. I have to say that's some power there!
