Superhero Series: Spider-Man

The first one seemed to be a hit so as long as you all keep interest, I'll keep this going!

First DC's Dark Knight, now let's head to Marvel's Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!
I'll be honest, I'm not much of a comic-book reader nowadays so most of this is from childhood/teen memory and movies nowadays. 

I digress; Peter Parker is consistently portrayed as a nerd that loves his Aunt and Uncle. Thinking about what watch Peter would wear, I started to think cheap and nerdy, something a high school kid or college student could responsibly afford and use. However, thinking on how much an influence Uncle Ben was, I thought about what he would wear when he "made it" and got a watch that he would pass down to his kids - and ultimately to Peter. So head canon: Uncle Ben is in his 30s when the first moon landing occurs, he gets THE moon watch and decades later that same nerdy side of Uncle Ben gets picked up by Peter, along with the watch. Now Peter wears his Uncle's (and possibly his dad's) vintage 321 Speedy.

But I'm curious, what do you guys think Peter Parker would wear?

I see him as more of a Casio Databank guy.

I agree that the Casio CA53W Databank is a good choice for Peter Parker, but I think he might save up for a slightly more expensive Casio, the Casio MTP4500D-1AV, because of the slide rule bezel. You know, science and all.

Peter Parker is not very well off, so he would definitely be a Casio guy.

Haha could definitely see Peter go the more complex, tinkery route with that.

He'd wear the Jacob & Co. Astronomia Tourbillon Spider edition, of course. 

JK! 🤣

He would wear a Seamaster and take all his drinks shaken, not stirred...  

Why not? - Omega Seamaster 300M James Bond Edition - Trends and style -  WorldTempus

Oh, wait...  wrong multi-millionaire Hollywood actor...

Maybe this?

Because in the comics, he also drives this:

I appreciate it, I'll have to think about how to spread it out between universes but I'm glad to have such a positive response from everyone. Look forward to seeing your responses!

That watch is one of those memories that my brain wipes to keep me sane. 
So thank you for bringing it back to the front of the line 😂

I 100% believe that Peter Parker would be a Bond fan and snag that watch when he gets taken by the symbiote!

A seiko alpinist ‘ginza edition’

I get the impression he doesn't have much money, so..... Timex weekender - cheap, set and forget.

I think he’d own the Timex Ironman as I suspect he’d have to be ready to go and need something relatively light but could also take a beating. I also see him as an avid user of the stopwatch.

My Spider-Man is from the animated series tho - so perhaps each of the movie spidermen would rock something different.

He is a simple guy, so no doubth for me this one:

Darn you. Not too big (like many other Casio slide rules) and it was an impulse one click buy off of Amazon for a Duro price. Peter Parker incoming
