I've had worn watches from age 17 till 47, most of my watches were different and also made to wear on the underside of wrist, the Omega had a slight off set for 12, it was placed where the 2 usually is, if you try to look at the bottom of your left wrist and think of reading a watch you'll see why the 12 was at 2 o'clock...... But in the late 80's I got so I had to use my FedEx del-time-recorder for those last min. on time del'vrys, I just gave up on wearing watches, and when I retired, time became an evil reminder of the years watching sec's go by. I'm getting more involved now, I don't even try to keep up with the days.
Someone ask me what time it is, and I say sorry, I'm retired(while showing them my empty wrist........ :D

those oakley watches are expensive as ****, i like the that i 'liked'. bad fishy how much was that ?

The one I pictured is the Titanium Gearbox with a carbon fiber face. The Oakley watches are all Swiss made, so I'm sure that factors into the price. It retails for $895, but I picked it up on eBay for $450 in perfect condition.

Here's another one of my favorites, an Oakley Holeshot.

I have an old Bulova watch i picked up at JC Penny in 2001 for about $120, aside from a new battery every so often its served me well, i wear it less though cause i spend a lot of time on computers and dont like wearing a watch or anything on my wrists while i type

Yeah, the Oakley watches are pricey. I do love mine though because the styles are like no other. The Citizen you referenced is very nice too. They make a mighty fine watch.

At the airport this Japanese lady came through and I saw the watch on the X-ray monitor, pure black(usually means $$$$)

It was in a wooden box and packaged very well, I went up to her to ask about it and eventually I asked how much a watch that nice is...

"$200,000"

My mouth dropped........
