his shoes.....so what do you have?


Everyday watch


Special watch


The 'I'm going to a sketchy part of town/drunken night out' watch



Shoes. I am a shame to humanity, no Reebok Classics or snickers though (well except for when playing sport!). Always a loafers and dress shoes man.

The one in the middle is my everyday and drunk watch. I have a dress watch, but there are no pictures on the internet of it.

A nice set of Addias and Nike sneakers for the everyday outings, three nice dress shoes for dressy nights out.

Edit: Forgot the shoes Big grin

My watch looks similar to this one. Titanium but with a gray face and Day view as well:



A silver looking Rado watch that I share with my dad.

Smart enough not to believe the crap advertising?

I haven't got a watch at the moment. If I do buy one it's usually something cheap as I can lose/bash them for fun.

I have got a Casio MP3 playing watch but don't use it as it's too bulky!

Footwear is currently two pairs of Puma trainers, one Reebok pair, New Blance knackered ones for slobbing about in and some Paul Smith shoes for court and funerals...

I am beginning to think that fbgdavidson is a dandy! But that's okay, as I am one too, and appreciate the finer things in life (like travel on BA in First or Club).

I wear a Patek Philippe, inherited from my late father. On special occasions, I wear a vest and pocket watch, the latter being a vintage Hamilton, given to my late great uncle upon his 20th anniversary as a member of the New York Fire Department (1913-1933).

My everyday shoes are either Mephisto or Ecco. I also have a pair of Piloti driving shoes when I head to the track in my BMW.

As for shoes, I usually tool around in a pair Black Hi-top Converse All-stars. Gotta pick up a pair of hiking boots today.

LMAO!  Smile

Anyhow: 20+ year old soviet 'Poljet' ( sorry, can't type cyrillic ) mechanical watch scrounged on E-bay. I like big clunky mechanical watches from somewhere other than the far east or Switzerland. Eclectic.

Pull-on Frye "engineer" boots. Look similar to WW2 Luftwaffe pilot boots. Also Timberland or Doc Marten's for work and leisure. I like wearing big heavy clomp-clomp boots year-round.

Ryanb--

You seem to have a pretty good collection. Ever thought of a Panerai? I love those watches, and when I get enough money, I will eventually buy one of my own. They are rare, and so simple, and elegant.... gotta love em.
