Looks really nice, looks a bit like a Stowa Navy. I like the looks of the Stowa Navy but I don't know why because it is not my usual style and I wouldn't wear one.
What watch do you wear?

Yes, it does. And it looks even more like Laco Navy (no seconds sub-dial). Naval deck watches were news to me. Thanks!
The difference is, those German watches are tool watches with luminous dials. Mine is a dress watch with no lume at all, and I still think it copies an IWC dress watch. But it's the size of a naval deck watch and it has a screw-down crown. Go figure.
PS I took another look and it definitely copies Laco Valencia, Laco's naval deck watch. Pagani Design forgot to lume the dial but hey, that's a detail!

Well I have 7: Sadly only 2 work
Casio G-Shock: Have a aftermarket adapter (which I've had to fix the pins twice) for my NATO strap. The bands from G-Shock are bad to put it nicely. 1 of 2 that works. Sadly to calendar only is programed from 2000 to 2039.
Citizen Skyhawk Blue Angels (2nd gen)
Caravelle by Bulova
Rolex Datejust: 2 of 2 that works. Got this as a gift which is a story I don't want to get into.
Swatch (Don't know the model)
Swatch Sistem 51 (Blue/Black)
Swatch Sistem 51 (Irony edition)
The swatch that I don't know the model is Black (mostly)/Red/White. Just needs a new band & battery.
Short answer: I wear the G-Shock daily & my Rolex on rare occasions.

A '70s retro reissue that didn't stick around long. I like faceted crystals but they are scratch magnets. So I like this watch but I don't wear it very often.

I like this watch. Very clean dial.

A yellow gold Rolex DateJust is a stereotypical rich guy's watch.
Just need something that keeps accurate time, is lightweight, and that Baton Rouge muggers don't want. Lol
If you're not wearing one of these, your watch won't register with hoodlums or with anyone who isn't a watch collector. If you carry an iPhone or any big expensive smartphone, keep it in your pocket when you're out in public,
Old American folk song:
For seven long years I've been in prison
For seven years more I'll have to stay
Just for knocking a man down in an alley
And taking his gold watch away

3:00 PM Saturday in Chicago is 03:00 Sunday in Vietnam until DST ends November 7. A GMT diver watch could be useful for scuba tourism, but not in the Russian Federation: the north is still too cold to be fun and the Black Sea is a war zone.
