First time i see a Garmin as a watch.

Definitely buying one.

Normally use a automatic, Submariner or Breitling but this looks perfect .

You never know what you find in these forums

Why not the 50mm 1.2?

No, Speedmaster Moonphase in Blue.

Dark Side of The Moon is nice but not a Moonphase, and the face of it is a slice of a MOON ROCK! Amazing! It's much more expensive too.

This one is just right.

There are many smart watches. Tag has one! It's about 1800 bucks. Works with IOS and Android but does NOT HAVE PULSE SENSOR, WTF?

Amazing Technology everywhere.

The GPS navigation made me fall for it.

It also can track where i parked my car and direct me to it, it seems

What else can i want from a smart-watch?

Also can check my heartbeat when i am driving to understand how much joy i get

Or the BMW Connected app, which is available for IOS and Android.

I actually used it to find my car on Friday. I hadn't realized the arena where we were had 2 identical parking garages. I'd always thought there was just the one. The app told me the car was in the other one. Pretty cool.

My $ is that the on\off is the state of the alarm. That's a cool watch for sure.

That's a vintage BMW watch from 2003. Purchased from dealer. It has engine data on the E46 M3 S54 motor on the rear.

The on/off is for the alarm.

This is VERY interesting. I have used the BMW app with my car and it tracks your cars location. No big deal.....but I was renting a car last week, Dodge Charger, and I synced my phone with that. The iPhone tracked that cars position to? Not sure if it was the BMW app or something native in the iPhone. Interesting.

On vacation this week, took cameras with me, I walked outside to take some photos at the beach and I was hit with the Fogging.(I expected some).....waited half an hour to let it warm up but no dice, gave up. I'll probably leave it in the car over night to let warm up to ambient temps, and take it out for a shoot tomorrow if it stops raining! A/C works great in the house but the change in temp causes fogging. LOL.....My go pro and my iPhone will have to do.

No pics and no Rolex, sorry for the former, not at all sorry for the latter.

My usual rotation includes a Jaeger LeCoultre Master Moon from the early 00s with black dial (the old 39 mm case), a JLC Reserve de Marche in rose gold (also the old 39 mm case), a LeCoultre 'Futurematic' with black dial circa 1953, a Chronoswiss Orea manual wind and an early production Nomos Tangente.

No pie pans and no bling.

First off, nice collection. But taking shots at others choices in timepieces is less than appealing...to each their own I guess

If that was 'taking shots,' it was a pretty oblique shot. But I'll make no bones about it: I'm not on board with the BIG WATCH thing - it harkens back to the days when a wristwach was essentially a big pocket watch on a strap. And personally I do not aspire to a Rolex on my wrist. I fully understand others favor them, and that's fine. No offense to them meant.

That's not only aesthetic preference - I've got very small wrists and have a heckuva time finding straps to fit unless I order custom from Camille Fournet, ABP or the like, so I start with a readily admitted prejudice and physionomy that sometimes limits my choice of wrist candy. When I see a press item for a new watch that appeals, the first thing I typically look for is the 'case diameter' spec. Over 40 mm won't fly. And as you know, in the heyday of mechanical wristwatches, a 35-36 mm case was typical for 'fine men's watches.'

Either everyone got bigger, or we're looking at a big watch fad. Kinda like the big SUV thing.

I'll cop to it. SUVs and 48 mm watches aren't my thing. That's why I'm driving an M2 with a 6 MT and wearing a Futurematic. Throwback stuff.
