Only leather straps, though, can't be arsed with metal ones.What?? Metal strips all the way Chris.Too heavy, clonk when you rest your wrist on any hard surface, too cold when you first put them on, too easy to catch your skin in whatever needlessly complicated catch they decide to use.No, leather with a simple buckle all the way. If it doesn't quite fit you can just cut a hole precisely where you need it rather than taking links out and wishing you could take out half a link.

I understand Jack1704. It's a Brit thing.
That is truth, but the wristwatch or pocketwatch as a superfluous, single-function device that is now outclassed by children's toys does possess a sense of poetic irony in today's information society.
Besides, perhaps FET is a conspiracy too.
It is just the way it is, you understanding it doesn't concern me.
If Gayer doesn't remember you, you might as well do yourself a favor and become an hero.
there is a difference between touching a muff and putting your hand into it isn't there?

I used to use the stopwatch feature to time my runs before I got a wrist GPS. I also used to have one of these bad boys (in black) 20 odd years ago.http://selectric.org/compt/cfx200.jpg
Basically the point of a watch is to make it do as many useless yet awesome things as possible.I soo want a watch with the moon phase on it.
If you need to take out half a link on a metal strap, you've either got ridiculously large links or a very pedantic disposition.
Also, Chris is hot.
Chris i took your advice and am wearing one of my leather watches. Feels unusual.
I thought I made it pretty clear I was talking about watches whose only function was telling time.

Vongeo is a wanker, he wears a wanker hat; he always smells like urine and he thinks the Earth is flat.

I'd just like to point out once again that I am of the opinion that censoring rules that do not permit you to post motherfucking fine art are retarded.
I wouldn't consider that painting "fine art".
