What Watches Do INGO Members Wear? "What's on your forearm"?

[nakinate]

Haha, watches are my newest hobby. The core of my collection consists of a Seiko Alpinist, Zodiac Super Sea Wolf, and a Dan Henry 1939.

I’m currently saving up for this beauty from Grand Seiko, I have a problem:

Found a good deal on this Seiko Orange Samurai...

...Zodiac Super Sea Wolf...

Dammit you guys. Just when I thought I had enough orange watches.

I was curious about the Luminox automatics so I picked up a 6502 "Modern Mariner" recently.

Initial impressions are very positive. I really like the giant 45mm case, but I have a big wrist. Watch is a pretty heavy though, almost as bad as some of my radio Citizen Eco-Drives.

Really have this one on my want list

Put one on in person. Stock pics don't really do it justice. What are you're guys thoughts on TAG? I know they are kind of controversial among watch guys.

Well, I've been wearing the same Tag Aquaracer automatic for 13 years now, if that tells you anything.

I own a few TAGs, think they're a great watch for the money. Others I. The more expensive watch crowb look down on them as quasi fashion watches. That particular model may make me end my watch burying hiatus thoough

Haha, it's pretty sharp. Some of the TAG stuff is a little too "busy" looking for me, but they have a ton of cool stuff (and actions). I like how subtle that one looks. Debating between it or a Resco......

Okay, don't judge me!! Here are a few of mine.





I mainly wear either a Citizen Eco-Drive, or one of my Seikos. I like the Eco-Drive and the self-winding because I don't like to replace all of the batteries.

Ah Jesus. You’ve stumbled into my other “collection” area. My daily edc watch is a mechanical Orient Mako divers watch. Solid stainless steel billet band. But I’ve got so many others....

I like Tag. On some models in the past they used substandard materials but i think theyve mended their mistakes. Its a good brand. Im proud to own a few now

I am wearing a Gen 4 Apple Watch. Honestly do not know what the hype is. But my wife insisted I have a watch to monitor my pulse because my heart rate and blood pressure crash right before I have a type of seizure. I didn’t like the FitBit or wearing a digital watch. Figured if I had to be burdened with a piece of electronics it might as well do something useful.

I have a Galaxy Watch. I am pretty fond of it. I wanted one of those Garmin watches that you can load maps onto for when I go hiking, but I wasn't wanting to spend over 300 on a watch so I'll just use my Garmin Foretrex for those days.

Had a couple wengers that didnt hold up- doing a victorinox now that I like, all basic date and time analogue guys- also a big timex expedition fan, but I think theyve fallen off a bit

 

[Jaygentry]

Samsung gear s2. Been real happy with it.

 

[Abominator]

The last watch I bought was. G-shock, not expensive, pehaps in the $160 range. That was about 8 years ago, havent worn it in about 4 years. I just use my phone now. Somewhat interested in a smart watch but worried I just wont like wearing it after all these years of naked wrists.

I wear an Apple Watch 3 42mm Cellular for work and my Casio Pathfinder when off. Sometimes if I need something more dressy, I have a Seiko that fits the bill

Ive worn the same Suunto for about 6 years. Wear it to work everyday, and i work at the BP oil refinery, (as a contractor so i actually work :-p). It still holds a charge great, and their customer service is phenomenal. My original rubber band came off about 2 years ago. The parts kit to replace it online was close to $60. I sent an email, and they sent me an entire replacement band for free. No issues now that i put a dab of blue loctite on the screws.

I've gotten back into watches this year and have fixed a couple old ones. These are in the current rotation. The one on the far left was bought by me in 1984 at the Travis AFB Bx and was on my wrist when my 30 year old son was born.
