>>A fine watch is the sign of a real man.

>I have a fine watch, my Dad's Jaeger-le-Coultre, but I never use it, nor I use my other cheapest watch, I wonder what does this reveal about me. Three or four years ago I went to Argentina with my family on vacation, and when we came back I had 1000 dollars that we did not spend, so I thought I would by a watch that I am keeping my eyes since forever, the
Blue Angels, and I went to the store, I had the cash in my pocket, the watch in my hands and was about to pay when I realized that I do not have a plane and more importantly I have always my cellphone or I am close to a computer to check the time, so I saved the money (saved being an euphemism for "I do not remember how the heck did I spent it") I still love that watch though.
What it says about you? Is that you stopped looking at women (just kidding) and only at your wife <g>. I think a watch these days is not to show the time but rather a piece of jewelry. And if wearing a nice piece of jewelry does not make you comfortable or you don't care about it, then you can spend the money on something else. E.g. iPad <g>.
