How do you enjoy your watches?

I love making sure I include my watches in my adventures and times when I know I will make memories. How do you enjoy yours? Is it from photographing? Is it technical admiration? Under a loupe? Having something to talk about with friends? Or beating them up like I do ๐Ÿ˜‰

id love to hear how you interact and enjoy your timepieces! Comment below

I just like wearing them, taking photos and swapping straps. Nothing too freaky. ๐Ÿคฃ I enjoyed your IG page btw. Excellent collection!

ยท

Glad you enjoy it, my friend!!! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป And it doesnโ€™t need to be freaky! I just like hearing what about watches makes other people happy!

I tend to look at mine like theyโ€™re highly technical pieces of art that you can wear on your wrist, and I often find myself gazing down throughout the day to admire whichever one Iโ€™m wearing that day.

Also, what type of tent do you have back there? I canโ€™t quite make it out, but that shape looks familiar and itโ€™s killing me. (Iโ€™m also a gear head when it comes to hiking and camping.)ย

Ah, a Nemo! Nice! I need a new 3-season tent, and Iโ€˜ve been thinking about going for an Arete or a Marmot Crane Creek. But anyway . . . watches! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I love that you use your explorer for its original intended purpose! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

I wear a watch daily but seldom get around to wearing them in the great outdoors. That changes this year. I take the odd amateur photograph here and there and post on IG

ยท

Beautiful shots! Thanks for sharingย 

ยท

pretty much same idea as you, linking them to life experiences

ยท

All of those you mentioned, besides beating them out ๐Ÿคฃ

Awesome photos! Especially love the one where youโ€˜re wearing the Explorer by the river.

I should really start wearing my watches more in the nature and take some wrist shots ๐Ÿคฉ

Love seeing your watches out and about and being used as god and watchmakers intended. No safe queens here!

Youโ€™re dang right!!! but I understand that itโ€™s not for all ;)

To me, they're attractive and functional accessories to what I'm wearing.

I like picking out the perfect watch (swapping the bezels and straps as necessary) for the activity and outfit. ย Whether I'm hiking in the Rockies, snorkeling in the Caribbean, going to the office, or burning up the dance floor in my nicest kilt, I have a watch that is right for the circumstances, and will look damn good at the same time.
