Which watch does Santa wear?

I think Santa wears an IWC Portugieser Chronograph in team colours. I could see a chronograph being useful and Santa gives me IWC vibes.

Image

I think Mrs. Claus wears a Cartier Santos that Mr. Claus bought her a few Christmas' back. He basically wanted an excuse to buy one for himself, so it was the old "Look! I bought us a matching set!" trope.

Image

I challenge anyone to give a better suggestion.

Santa has pockets. Santa is old. Therefore:

Santa wears a pocket watch.

Santa is also an aviator on a tight schedule. 

History has taught us pocket watches were rubbish in flight.

I don't deny he would own a pocket watch... hell, maybe he even dabbles in pocket watch repairs and servicing during the off season... but for 'on the job'?

IWC.

In the early 19th century Abraham-Louis Breguet installed a dashboard clock on Santa's sleigh.

Pocket watch.

Research has shown that Santa has only 300 microseconds per house. 

Not enough time to be fiddling about with a pocket watch.

IWC.

Smart man.

After 1974 Genta was permanently on the "Naughty List" and Santa put the Polerouter back in its box.

Santa told me he thinks IWC is overrated.

Yeah, he SAYS that to fit in... but he's a fan boy really.

Because he wears red and he is magic. It goes with his flight suit.

So you think Santa’s lying?  All I can say is enjoy that stocking full of coal.

Absolutely.  Santa is a man of refinement and taste, this is exactly what he would wear.

G-Shock.

All the time zones, auto light, and chimney proof.

But that’s just his on the job watch. 

·

Santa is flying a sled across various time zones. Santa needs a GMT and so I'm sure that he wears a Glycine Airman.

·

Definitely a Rolex, a white one #wcwhitechristmas

Santa wears a G Shock. Nothing else will stand up to millions of trips around the world and up and down chimneys.

You guys are going about this all wrong. Reindeer are messy animals, plus flying through the air in an open sleigh at the near light speed Santa would need to travel puts a lot of stress and shock on fine jewelry. The Fat Man is 100% a G-shock fanboy

Hate to say it, but he's going to be wearing a Garmin Fenix 7x in carbon and titanium. Just for Christmas day though, and because he needs the functionality and stats of a dedicated GPS watch. 

Image

But the rest of the year he's wearing a Patek Grand Complications Tourbillon Minute Repeater Perpetual Calendar, because he needs to know what day of the year it is at all times and he deserves a million dollar watch. 

Image

Hard part is picking a time zone at the North Pole. 

·

You're all wrong. Santa wears a Breitling Unitime

Image

Mrs Claus bought him this vintage example for Christmas '76

·

He is not wearing a watch yet. He is waiting for 'the call'.

Dear @Eris_Goddess_of_Discord 

Santa doesn't have time to be winding and setting watches. He needs something tough to handle and deal with the reindeer and Elf's. Not to mention he needs to check multiple time zones. And Ever since his head elf dropped his Patek Philippe in the workshop. When he's making his way around the world. he wears his trusty Elf proof G!

Image

When he's chillin fireside reflecting the year gone by. Santas a player, He clearly rocks the Custom John Mayer bedazzled G-Shock Mrs. Claus got him

Excellent choices my friend. 👏

He would wear that bedazzled G-Shock with pride at the Christmas part!

·

Uhh, the choice is obvious, isn't it? He wears a Konstantin Chaykin.

Pretty sure Krampes has this same watch...That's what I heard anyway!

I think that my poll has laid this to issue to rest.

Santa wears a Snowflake. Santa. Snow. Please. And Spring Drive makes for the best robust, all around, every day watch.

He would definitely have one in his collection for sure!

Santa is either wearing a pilots chonograph (because he is some kind of a pilot) or a 34mm vintage watch with an alarm function.
