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'm surprised Chris has friends, if he wears those!

 

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:

That looks like an accident waiting to happen...

 

Misses got me the bezel bracelet in Amsterdam, wear it every now and then.

That's different but in a cool way I like it.

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

 

@Nobel Prize is your man when it comes to this stuff he has some cool stuff he wears with watches,

 

Lol. It's true sometimes I get more pm's about my bracelets than my watches

 

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

 

Don't you have one with a few monkey,s on it. Always thought that one was pretty cool..

 

Probably, would have to look around. I have a lot of being around. Child of the seventies.

 

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.

 

OK. You win.
