Ther worst watch you own you will actually wear out of the house?
Whats the worst watch in your collection you will leave the house in? Dirty, scratched, cheap junker? The silliest clunk you won't pull your sleeve over and hide?
In my case my 70s LUCH! Whats yours?

I love watches, I am also staggeringly poor. So I usually have to go for oddity or utility over horological mastery. Very little in my collection could qualify as a "flex" I tend to wibble on about my...

Worst watch that I own that I actually wear? A knock off moon swatch. Ordered from a shady website and got the charge reversed when I realized it wasn’t authentic. They never asked me to send it back so I wear it as a reminder to be careful with grey market dealers.
The logical problem, is the fact that I always act logical and I have many truly delicious watches for every possible occation, so I never have to select a not really fine watch...
But I wear this scratchy one, when I work with my boat and that may damage the watch...
And one of these half crazy BUT extremely delicious Chines skeleton, on some special events...
This addiesdive Luminox homagge
Can't even be on the rain with it on my hands 🤣
Scratched case and crystal, bent crown (+ it's a Daniel Wellington 😅)
An old(er) Casio Telememo; is a rarely worn, true Beater watch
It’s not a bad watch…but is in fact charming and fun to listen to my Radio Shack watch announce the time throughout the day.
My self esteem has a watch brand?

Thats weird, I have two steeldive, both are very waterproof.

Ok, I'd say that wins it.

Yeah i know but this model is a bust.
Like 5 ATM waterresistant
You can't wash your hands with it, already had water in the movement just from washing my hands.
Also, it says its all stainless steel.
But you can see the corosion on the Case just after one year of rearly wearing the watch.
It was cheap tho' around 40$
Mmmm, might be this one..
$12 NaviForce…I love this cheapy!
I worry about overwearing my really good stuff because I don't want it beaten up.

I've never seen a fake Steeldive before. The real ones are stainless steel. What in it? Do you have a shot with the back off? Mine are both very real stainless. A real one starts at $100 or so. Seriously the crown isn't even stainless, is it at least screw down?

These are the fronts. No way that's a real watch. Note the sapphire crystals. You sir, have a fake homage. I'm impressed.

Don't think its a fake...just a cheap and a bad model.
Here is a link to one review:

Just mine isn't PVD coated, and there are a few different versions regarding the logo and the name addiesdive and just addies 🙄
And no...not a screw down crown.
The irony is that somewhere it's called a deepsee hunter...with a 50atm waterresist 😂

Don't know what to tell you.
Inside it's a cheap miyota Quartz movement.
As expected of a 30$ watch.
Addies my-050 is the reference, google it and see for yourself...

I have one like that, except it speaks Russian. Suffice to say I'm not wearing it these days.
This is my "light tank" which appears to be a Casio AQ230 but I suspect it is a fake. That alone does not overly concern me, its most damning sin is to not keep time like a real Casio would. I have since put it on a burgundy croc strap which is the least favourite strap in my collection.
$12 NaviForce…I love this cheapy!
Here's mine...
Keeps good time..... fairly stylish..... pretty well made.... cheap as dirt.
I think I paid $7.99 for this watch. Naviforce's slogan should be "A wristwatch for the price of a strap."

Oh wow! That's a good looking NaviForce! Crazy how cheap they are, right?! And you would think that the movement would be crap, but it isn't.
