Would be a cold day in hell my wife settled for a Timex while I rocked a Tudor. The mere suggestion would have the Timex sailing into my forehead and the Tudor confiscated off my crumpled body.

Couple of Khakis. Fit what we needed. Hers great in the classroom at 38mm, mine, 42mm, bought in a prior career as a criminal prosecutor. Appreciate easy to read dials more and more each passing year. 😀

I had to decide between that and chasing cute little watch savants in the Philippines. 😜 ::stirthepot::

I have offered her more expensive watches, but she sees them as more fashion pieces. She prefers hand bags, rings, necklaces, and ear rings.

A small planet ocean with diamond indices caught her eye in a catalog recently though.

Very true. We both fared pretty well down there.

Ok, not quite a pair, but....


Ok relax and just move slowly. Carefully remove that piece of metal from the gal's wrist before it causes any further damage to time pieces.

Nope, wife's is not a daily wear. I should check though... the 2 year service warranty is up in less than a year.

Do they run the same?

Bc she doesn't wear everyday, she/i have to wind and set time almost every time she picks it up.
Did you seriously hack those watches?!?! Now that is commitment!

Hamilton actively marketed “his and hers” watches during the 1950’s.

Thanks, fascinating - there's an interesting feminist thesis to be written right there, I think.
Fine pieces, but what did grind my gears though was that pairing, Thor and... Juno?? So, did they hook up at the gods convention that time Jupiter couldn't make it? 😒

Apparently you can get matching "his & her" Casio G-Shock & Baby-G watches too.

A whole PhD in gender studies could be based on the examination of how gendered watches were presented in Hamilton catalogs from 1920-1970. It's a bit mesmerizing to flip through them all at once
