Here is mine. http://www.watchshop.com/mens-citizen-eco-drive-watch-bm8240-11a-p99952857.html
I'd like an automatic, so a seiko 5 is on the cards.

There is nothing fundamentally wrong with buying in movements or pieces from the likes of JLC as Patek Philippe did for many years.
Unfortunately, the majority of watch brands I loved, have been snapped up by large multinationals that focus on building their marketing teams over everything else.
@nomad I totally agree about the engineering challenge
I love watches too but only have one. A G-shock GW-056e. It's perfect for me: solar charging, uses the radio signal thingy for perfect time and virtually indestructible. Considering it's a g-shock it's a normal size too & not an inch thick.
knowing this, my parents bought me for my 21st? ... a watch. still in it's case in a sock drawer. and i've inherited a couple as well. same sock drawer.
and the current trend of wearing behemoths on the wrist (not a brand name btw) leaves me baffled. some of the things i see people wearing would surely jeopardise the wearer's chances of getting out alive if they ever fell into a canal?.
The Geneves were the basic models of the Omega line but still shared the excellent in-house movements of the more expensive models.
These are mine. ....
On the Rolex thing, I absolutely appreciate the engineering in one, and that's a big part of why they still have some appeal, it's genuinely that since moving into a corporate job I've worked with so many people wearing them they have significantly less appeal as a status symbol and a "rare object". Something like a Omega Speedmaster or Seamaster 300 becomes much more attractive because you see them less often.
Please be aware that it thinks January is the 12th month, also that the moonphase is actually just the sun - it's always in the opposite position from the pointer on the same dial - it tells you whether you're in the middle of the night or not; also the date goes up to 39 and includes 00; also that teeny weeny silver hand under the month is glued on. Also the additional information around the day is meaningless. And some of their watches say 'stainless steet' on the back, though for some reason this one doesn't.

Everyday watch
Edit: notice the many coloured straps in the background... I own 9 in total.

Unfortunately, wood and cardboard aren't made out of brass, which is a major part of it (brass is lovely metal to machine). And I already have most of the machines and tools other than the clock-specific cutters.

Nobody loves me but my mother... and she could be jivin' too...
Particularly the Hand Date, which I plan on buying one day...
But I really like the Panomatic Lunar...
However, it's a bit pricey for me.
The workmanship is fantastic. I'd spend all day looking through the crystal back at this...
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
