I figured I'd ask the watch gurus of AT... I kinda dig it :eek:

as the weather warms up and I start breaking out the short sleeved shirts (moreso than ever now that I won't be working in a temperature controlled data center come this spring/summer) my wrist keeps looking bare. I've been on the fence about watch vs bracelet and this seemed to fit the bill for a casual watch just to wear to the office while wearing jeans and a t-shirt, but I'm sure AT's going to tell me it sucks and give me better suggestions :p

Is this a parody or joke thread I'm not getting? That is the fugliest thing I've ever seen. Any person who puts that on their wrist should be removed from the genepool forcefully and painfully.

Sure, if you don't mind being this guy:

"I love the watch, is different. I can rock it like a watch or like a regular bracelet. The design on it is hot. It bling bling. Now I can wear two watches and nobody won't even notice. LOL. A+" "

do you really like that? i can't imagine that you don't have tattoos and a couple of piercings if you are going to wear a watch designed like that.

atot has officially dissuaded me from thinking about that watch!

for what it's worth, I'm planning on getting my first tattoo at some point in the next 2-3 months, on my forearm.

Make it special, don't just buy some crap off the wall. If you can't think of anything special, maybe a tattoo isn't the best idea ;^)

Know how I know you're gay? The OP. "Now that it's warming up and I'll be sporting the short-sleeved shirt...I need a casual watch vs. the jeans and t-shirt look..."

Queer Eye For The Straight Guy called; they want you on the team.

ps
The watch is a POS...how the hell do you TELL THE TIME on that POS?

I know it's like super nerdy, but I want this on my forearm.

I wear a cheap ass Timex Ironman. Girls might actually think you are athletic.

The knotted snakes? That's pretty cool looking. Just make sure you think you'll want it 20 years from now :^)

my runner up was a plain ouroboros but that one picture always creeped me out and NES was totally my favorite book growing up.
