Hey Stormin, wasn't it "Pave Low leads the way"?

I'm an old Pave guy #129 of 453 and in the 20th SOS it was "Pave Low Leads".  Thanks for bringing back the memories!  hand6.gifhand6.gif  While in the 20th SOS I was issued a Casio G-Shock and I still have it!  That watch can handle anything, I once accidentally ran over it with my truck and it still worked.  mistake.gif 

Hey Apeogre, I suspected you might be a military guy by your use of the expression "tango uniform" and the fact you issued a G-Shock!  ThumbsUp02.gif  Take care and have a great day, cheers. woohoo.gif

Currently wearing my Marathon no-date Navigator. It spent the last 2 weeks in the field with me and held up Great. I even made a couple of the squad leaders jealous :D.

As a Maytag repairman (yes we actually do work) working on commercial washers and dryers I beat the daylights out of my G-Shock

I rotate which watch I wear to work but can't wear one while I work. I work as an Auto Technician and wearing a watch would be the end of it. Don't wear any jewelery either for safety while I work.

As design engineer for AT&T and a card carrying, certified "Desk Diver" subtlelaugh.gif I can wear what ever I want. So, just like Pax, whatever you see in the Daily Wrist Check is what I am wearing for the day.

BTW- apeogre -I wore a G-shock for years while I was in the military, then in my last few years in the military I switched to a Tag 1500.

I use what I post in the daily thread and IMHO you should use your watch even if it cost some thousand bucksgoofy
I tend to use a Seiko diver og G-Shock when the going gets real tufftoon1.gif

I too wear what I post daily. This way I am sure to rotate and wear all my watches.

I'm in the restaurants business and meet lots of different kinds of people every single day. Generally when I think I will spend time inside kitchens, I wear my Seikos. In the office, I wear the more expensive brands. I thus match my watch to the expected situation for the day.

Like many of you, I wear what I post.

I like the Doxa Aquaman for work. Mix in my Casio Protrek and Tag Aquaracer (older version with optional swirls and scratches) and thats all I can risk at work.

I'm working on the oil&gas plants, mostly onshore but I never wear a watch at work: Any mechanic watch I used in the past stoped after 3 months and the wrist can get caught with them also. Specialy since I bolt huge ASME flanges... So I wear my watches at home after my missions only:?

I try to rotate, but the Halios Holotype has seen a LOT of wrist time lately.
