I bet you rock these with a Men's Wearhouse suit whenever you go to black-tie events, don't you?
I don't do black tie, hoss. ****, I don't even do events. I do what I want to do, and nothing in that scope of activities includes a prereq for a monkey suit. But, hey, knock yourself out if you're into letting your wife pull your strings for you. I bet she really digs your watch and wishes your cock was as big... or useful.I bet you rock these with a Men's Wearhouse suit whenever you go to black-tie events, don't you?
Wew lad, slow your role projecting your insecurities onto me. I broke my cardinal rule of conversing with the cutoff t-shirt crowd, I'll have to remember to not make that mistake again.
I like wearing nice clothes from time to time. But hey... If you're a "lawn tech" or construction laborer and never do anything more important than spreading fertilizer, I'm sure you're going to poo poo the idea of nice things.
Right. B/c being a minimalist and not wanting to look like a NJ jabroni mook makes me the weirdo with the labor job.
I like nice things. Just, like most real men, not overpriced jewelry used to impress other men... and I generally find I don't like the macaroni Tonys that go for that sort of thing. Not that there's anything wrong with that, they just all seem to have that certain quality about them... like they're trying too hard. Then again, maybe they just have to.
what are your thoughts on $50,000 pick up trucks? real men right? surely real men out there with pick ups dont get them to try to impress other guys.
I like how you waltz into a thread and unprovoked start criticizing other guys... Then want to comment on what makes a real man.
Rich.
Ok. So you don't know **** about watches. A Rolex, while flashy, is still a pretty awesome. Nobody in here is posting blinged out watches. The title of the thread requests stuff under $200 for Christ's sake. The whole conversation, by definition, is pretty damn humble. You're weird.
Maybe being a real man involves making decisions according to his own tastes, regardless of the impression it makes on others, as long as doing so does not hurt others and at least on occasion puts the needs of others before his wants.
While you're busy projecting, we're trying to talk about affordable watches. Thanks for the input though.
A waste of money that falls into the same category as the pricey watch (granted, I'm talking about guys with huge, shiny expensive trucks that own them for the off chance they might buy a patio swing someday and dodn't want to fork over the delivery costs... not the guy with the F250 that does work... He has no choice but to fork over heavy cash for a quality tool) . My little truck will be 12-y/o this fall. It cost me $28k in Nov 2004. I'll never buy another new one as they are now way too overpriced. I'd rather retire earlier and drive a used truck. Apply same mentality to man jewelry, expensive clothing, 5-bedroom house for 2 kids... that kinda stupid ****. I prefer my money in the bank as opposed to on my wrist or in my driveway. And I'm a fiscal conservative... go ******* figure, right?
But, again, some of you guys NEED that kinda ****. I get it. Fill those holes left by daddy and I wish that watch and shiny truck could hug and kiss you every night to make you feel the love you never got, I really do... but, trying to make your friends envious of clothing/jewelry/cars/house is a loser's game. I'm just trying to point out the light at the end of the tunnel.

You are correct. I have better **** to do and better ways to spend my money. Sorry about your effeminate addiction.
I just remembered, Crazy, I have a Seiko Blue SS watch, new in-box, that my MIL gave to me as a X-mas gift a couple years back. Never worn. SHe couldn't have paid more than $100 for it, so it's right up your alley. I can dig it out and sell it to you for a steal if you want it. It's just wasting away in a box somewhere, wishing it had a perfumed wrist to adorn. Just let me know.
Spoken like a real man's man.
Since when did liking well-made, affordable watches become an "effeminate addiction?" God, you're projecting so hard here.
Skagen, ftw. Have three of them, great, lightweight watches.
