No watch...

Last week my watch battery died so I put it into my bag so I'd have it with me so I could pick up a new battery. Apparently it was a bad place to put it because it ended up breaking where the band is attached to the watch part. So that means I need to grab a new watch.

The problem is, do I wait for post christmas sales to get one? That probably would be the smart move. The problem is that 1) I don't know what time it is and 2) I feel naked, but not in the good way. I've worn a watch almost constantly as far back as I can remember. I think that I actually even have my original "trainer" watch too, but I don't think that I could wear that to work.

Now should I get something that looks pretty fancy like the Rosendahl Watch II or should I just look at something like a 50$ digital watch? Fancy GPS watch? Smart looking analog watch? So many choices, so little money...

I haven't worn a watch since I ditched my land-line and got a cell phone 10 years ago. Now I have a land-line AND a cell phone BUT still no watch. :)

hahaha... I end up going places without cell phones and where a cell phone wouldn't make sense. It's good to have a watch when snorkeling so you know when the boat is going to leave without you. :-P

I was looking at a really nice Kenneth Cole watch that sort of looks like this:

But I ended up getting a Casio FE10. Pretty basic digital watch, but it's sooo light. 29g.

If it's so light, will you still feel "naked"? :)

Ya, but now it's in the good way. :-P
