What Would You Get?

Suspend reality for just a moment and humor me, please.

Let's assume you - for whatever reason - wanted to get a watch tattoo on your wrist, full color or not. What watch would you choose? Big decision here!

  • Bonus points for what time the watch would indicate.

  • Additional points for strap description.

  • Branded or sterile?

  • Explain yourself or not.

Something fancy? Something ordinary? Your grail? Your own design?

Cheers! 🍻

An omega de ville, at 11:34 AM

The watch i was wearing intentionally when my son was born and the time refers to when he was born. Unfortunately the watch is dead now, i want to restore it but am too lazy 😅

Bvlgari Serpenti would look cool with the wrap around design

Taylor, that would be amazing!

Kaysia @DeeperBlue, would this be your choice?

Lol I’ve lived half my life without any tattoos and fully intend to finish out the second half the same way 😂

Maybe not an exact watch that exists, definitely sterile/unbranded.

Nice big indices, military time on dial too. Sword hands, time set to 13:13.

Destro crown, countdown bezel, with zero hour at 1313.

4:30 date set to Roman numerals V or 5.

Depending on artists capabilities, might see if they can do Mem. Mem. Somewhere in the dial. (Latin slang for remember remember).

Strap would be ZuluAlpha Felix Fund grayscale for a natural nylon type look. Worn backwards with the Felix Fund symbol thumb side.

Date is my wedding date an roughly when we got started 😂. I say roughly cause we thought it would be kinda an inside joke to start at 1313. In reality, I was in place at 13:13, but there was a small delay in getting the mic's to work so it was prolly 1315.

Most of this design would be grayscale photo realistic, and all the rest of my ink is North American Traditional/Neo-traditional I'd be ok with it.

I would get an Apple watch tattooed with a QR code in the dial. Once scanned, it would lead the viewer to a page that reads: "PLEASE HELP. PALLET_FORK MADE ME DO THIS"

Ya, that’s right…

·

I just had the fleeting thought: “what if I woke up to find a round date window tattooed on my wrist 🫣”

·

I would get the Spaghetti Scameti, plus this:

Spaghetti Scameti.

Edit: @casiodean beat me by 9 minutes. Lol.

Nice cat tattoo.

Seiko G757 5020 Sports 100

Wouldn't be a Rolex. Would take forever to get if ever.

Absolute winner 🥇. I read the question and thought there is no way to make this look good at all but then you easily proved me wrong. That would be awesome.

LOL!! If one were to get a watch tattooed on their wrist, then make sure the time reads 5:00 pm!

Y'know, it's 5 o'clock somewhere! 🍻

This is crazier than ...

So, other than being attached to your wrist, what is it?

Like this?

With the grim reaper and scythe holding it 🙂

I would likely get a significant military watch (A11 or GG-W-113). Partly because of the historical significance and partly because I don’t want a brand name tattooed on me!

·

6 minutes, 6 seconds pass 6. The grandfather clock from series 4 of Stranger things. 😂

·

I know someone who has a watch tattoo with his date and time of birth.

·

I worked as a tattooist for 9 years , stopped because of a bike accident, and can honestly say that's one of the worst tattoo ideas I've come across. ..😂

However, I will be getting an Omega Hippocampus tattoo as soon as my tattooist can fit me in. 😁

·

I was watching a video with Ed Sheeran and John Mayer and they were teasing each other about a watch tat..Even they said they were not that crazy..LOL

·

I would get this, only because it wouldn’t look too much like a watch
