Bracelets, Bangles, and other things to sit on your wrist next to a watch

Now, not being a follower of fashion in any way, shape, or form, I might have missed the memo, but when did companion bangles/bracelets for watch owners become a thing?

I post quite a lot of watch pictures on Instagram, and seem to get a lot of likes, comments, and follow requests from producers of said man bangles.

Some of them are quite cool: http://friendsofchris.tictail.com/

Others, not so much.

Does anyone here wear such things?

Nope, but like you, I'm not a follower of fashion in any way, shape, or form. I'll admit it, I'm a late middle aged guy and no longer a member of the terminally hip.

I do partake in leather bands & wood beads,tigers eye from time to time.Not to toot my own horn but myself & Jeep99dad started this fad w/ purchases from Gunner @ watchesandbracelets.net & they have took off since, everyone is making some type of bracelet & wearing them now.

I admit I had never heard of the "Rolex anchor" until I saw one that accompanied a watch, like this:

If a guy was to drop anchor in the wrong place, it could play havoc and not in a good kind of way

Sometimes I wear a bit of something as long as it's soft so as not to scuff up ole speedy.

No dammit, the PMs are about your nasty, hairy wrists upsetting me in juxtapostition with the pretty girl in your avatar.

You have no consideration.

People like you are the reason the avatar is there...when it stops annoying you, or rather having expectations based on my avatar then I'll change it to a hairy monkey. 😎😗🍿
