    Hi all

    I know not much about the most user here except what they wear for a watch today or what they have for an avatar.

    Me takes wonder:
    How old are you?
    Which continent are you from?
    Which sector are you working?
    Which clock would describe you?
    What's your favorite watch?

    (not too much private because you know the internet never forgets and is evil)

    I'm 27 from Europe and working in the financial sector.

    If I were a watch I would be a Zenith rainbow

    Sportive, work fast but exactly, not the biggest and I'm close to the nature in my spare time (colorful).

    My favorite watch is the Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Ref. 345.08.09. because this watch has all what i would need.

    Thx

    Adri

    Europe, more specifically Wales, but I live in Kuwait

    Maybe something unremarkable but soilid all the same, a Seiko perhaps.
    My favourite watch is the Omega Seamaster Bullhead, followed by a 176.005 or perhaps a 70s Dynamic, and I love those Broad Arrows and I would love a Memoatic,oh, or a Seamaster Cosmic, and those FHz Cone 300s are beautiful I am extremely happy to own a Seamaster banana and I love the megaquartz and my chronostop driver.....too many watches not enough cash. :(

    @cicindela Thanks, I saw the thread:)

    But I'm more interested at the age of the users.

    I have a feeling that few young people are interested in watches.

    49. My body feels like 59, yet I still act like an adolescent sometimes. :p

    North America, USA - in New Jersey, the state that's the butt of many jokes.

    Retail. I'm a product trainer / merchandise coordinator for a 12 store chain.

    No idea. Never even thought of it. I guess something that can take a beating yet still be decent looking, and flies under the radar. Certainly old school.

    That changes daily. Sometimes hourly. ::screwloose:: :rolleyes:

    We have several, including one of our mods (@kyle L) who started posting on watch forums when he was about 13.

    What's your favorite watch? I know this may be a boring answer, but its a classic hesalite Speedmaster. I'm not gonna bother to include a picture because you know what it looks like.

    Clock, I would be a Smiths wall clock

    Favourite watch, sm300 from any era

    If I were a watch I would be one of these, a true underdog often overlooked and not well liked but dependable and better than the sum of its parts
