This watch is only worn a few times a year.

    think their a slight difference with some watches thou mean take the forum watch knew I would hardly wear it as it would not last long to me as very hands on kinda guy , but I was going to have it and it's there if I ever wear fancy duds , so got a few that just can't see going , but saying that maybe down the line once all the others are gone I might do but just can't see it at the minute.

    Back to your original post, most of my watches I wear because I want to wear them. The only watch I really worry about is the Mickey Mouse because it would be difficult to replace. I'm a bit protective of it so it only gets worn a few times a year. In that respect, I'm more of its caretaker.

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.
