Be easy man. Some folks don't treat these tools like ornamental jewelry. I have no problem with someone working hard with a nice luxury watch on. Who cares? I'd pick up dog shit in a Patek in a heartbeat.

Right tool for the job, the watch isn't the right tool and likely neither is the person with such decision making. It easily comes off. You swing sledge hammers and spray paint next to an f40 also?

I thought the pic looked wonderfully staged, with the M control arm in the pic. Was just doubting he was really working on the car with the watch on.

Agreed, guess I don't see the point of staging something in that manner.

Seiko PADI Diver

New to the collection as well. Not an expensive watch, but a great timepiece for the value, and a cool history to boot.

This is the Seiko SRPA21 PADI Limited Edition Diver on a vintage suede strap. I'm pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable a sub $1000 watch can be.

Vintage today. My grandfather's 1938 IWC registered in the sale logs at the IWC factory in Schaffhausen. Manual wind, anti magnetic, when that was a big thing!

Not a picture of me or my dainty wrist but here is the one I wear: http://seikousa.com/images/watches/d...rge/SSC017.jpg

I'm not a baller and while I could afford a much more expensive watch, I could not actually make the purchase since I am an incredible tight wad.

With that being said, I love this watch! It has good heft, shows nicely on my wrist. It's scratched up pretty good on the stainless, but the crystal is unmarked.

Now here is the funny part: I have been asked if it were a "Rolex" numerous times in the 5 years that I have owned it. Always by TAG owners. They are surprised when I tell them it's a sub $200 Seiko.

I just picked this one up. I wanted something really really simple with no flash at all, but the little "pop" of blue was the clincher.

Is that a comfortable bracelet? I think it's one of the nicest bracelets, I imagine it very comfortable and doesn't pull on your arm at all ?
