What kind of watch did you wear to school?

[HenryLouis]

I am planning to get a watch soon, but my parents/friends do not think it is a good idea to wear any expensive watch at school. I was thinking of getting a cheap g-shock or something and saving up for something amazing.


What watch did you wear when you were at school?

[Bleh]

High school? College?

In high school, I wore a freestyle quartz for a while, then a '70s Benrus Automatic. I did briefly wear a Bulova Accutron hummer, but it got stolen when I took it off during a test.

Citizen and Seiko quartz.

A fake Tag... how old are you? I dont see a problem with wearing a nice watch in school. I couldn't afford it but would have liked to. You may wish you had saved your money later however. You don't want a car thats worth as much as your watch. Good luck with whatever you decide on.

I remember I had a transformer watch back in like 1983. It turned into a robot (teacher took it away).

I was also thinking about the good ole' calculator watches. Man, I remeber when those 1st came out I thought all my math troubles were solved, lol.

But other than that I wore a cheap digital.

Depends on what age of schooling you're referring to. High school I wore a Fossil quartz chrono, sport watch. College I wore the Fossil briefly, then a Skagen dress quartz, and finally the Bulova Marine Star.

Kinda varies. Tag one day, vintage hamilton the other, fossil, and lately Omega.

I'm currently in the 9th grade, but don't want anything expensive stolen

I had a Pierre Cardin (it was the 80s!), then for most of the 90s I had an Omega Constellation. When I was in primary school one of my friends, whose parents were in IT and regularly travelled to Asia, rocked up one day wearing a calculator watch. It was the first time any of us had seen one and we were all SOOOO jealous.

You can't go wrong with a G I reckon. Or get one of the remote control watches like mine, and program to operate the TVs and DVD palyers at your school. That could be fun...

I thought there was no crime in Canada?

In grade school I wore a couple of Disney pieces, in high school I had a Gucci, some Timex's and of course the calculator piece, never flunked a math quiz
