    I`m watching "What`s My Car Worth" and I really get disturbed by how they wear watches and lean over the car and then he moves his watch hand and I don`t know how it`s not hitting the paint...it drives me crazy seeing video`s online etc as well when people have watches on and are detailing vehicles

    Formerly the "Best Detailer", now just Super Wax Waster Man. Not necessarily tactful, but normally right. It`s good to be da King !!!

    The younger guy annoys me, and I can`t stand to see them lean on cars like they own it. I see them pop the hood and lean on the fender all the time.

    Oh man me too! They don`t need to lean on anyone`s car. It really annoys me. I like the show, but keep your mitts off the paint!

    heck I don`t even own a watch. Being a lefty I don`t like a watch on my left wrist and can`t bring myself to wear a watch on my right hand.

    I like my watches, but I don`t rmuch like wearing one. Since I`ve retired, I go watchless often enough that it runs down pretty often. But it doesn`t bother me as much as wearing a ring does, I hardly *ever* have my wedding band on.

    Yeah the wedding band stays off. I saw too many films about guys maintaining military vehicles getting their finger getting ripped off or the ring getting crushed on their finger. Still gives me chills. I only wear mine when I go out to dinner with my wife.

    Good memory! Sigh...I do still like those, but no, I decided to, uhm..quit accumulating...stuff like that. Basically just woke up with a different perspective one day, and it`s stuck.

    Eh, I haven`t even wound the Tudor since forever (and no, I don`t use a winder), just like the Sub too much to wear anything else.

    I`d probably only wear the Reverso with formal wear anyhow as the Sub is simply MY WATCH in every possible respect. Even my shirtmaker has quit bugging me about wearing it with his stuff, almost sounds like he appreciates it when the subject comes up, though I suspect that at heart he still thinks it`s inappropriate.

    Hey, that`s similar to my situation with it...it initially bugged me during, uhm..Tacticool Activities. Actually impacted my performance at a few tasks even though others don`t seem to have that problem. [Shoot], I can`t even drive my best with it on.

    Guys who employ Fighting Rings must have MUCH better-padded fingers than I do, but then I guess most people do.

    ..I only wear mine when I go out to dinner with my wife
    Same here, and also to funerals and meetings. Part of "dressing up".

    A Sub these days goes with anything, formal wear included.

    That`s what I say, and after saying it for so long I believe it myself

    But eh, "these days" some [individuals] think that most anything goes with [most anything]...One mustn`t let oneself go, slippery slope there IMO. Heh heh, a gal pal I`ve known since forever just saw me in jeans for the first time (quick run to UPS right before dogschool) and she commented on it in amazement.
