What Watch Do You Wear On Board

Post by Midnightsun »

I am a little nuts when it comes to watches, love them.

Would like to see what you wear on the boat no matter if it is a Timex or a Rolex. i have a rather vast Timex collection also. :captain2:

One of my favorites is my Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Titanium. First introduced in 1954 as a divers watch and still available today in a different edition.

My second often worn boat watch is a Breitling SuperOcean 44 Special Black Steel.

Nice, have a few Citizen Eco drives and always wanted one like you have. Never did get around to getting one though.

I also don't wear a watch but I keep one in a folder on the dash for keeping log book information. It's a TIMEX and yes - it can take a licking. :down:

Let's see
Clock on the chart plotter
Time on the radar
Time on the radio
Time on two radios
Time on my phone
Time on my wife's phone.
I don't want to know what time it is!
Thanks

Nice watches, I think there would have to be a night school course for me to learn how to read them.... :beergood:
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

I bought it in March of 2007 just after I retired from Ford. Still going strong 11+ years later. I love Citizen watches. This one is my 2nd.
