I'm more into finding stuff that not everyone wants or already posseses. Have a CYMA 24hr wristwatch. Issued to a Nazi Luftwaffe pilot. Back of the case is Nazi marked. Keeps exellent time. Left the cable for my camera at work.

The $40 Viper watch I bought off Ebay (come to think of it, it was probably my first ever Ebay purchase):



A watch that I bought during a game of the Calgary Vipers:



And a watch sold by one of our F-16 (nicknamed "Viper") squadrons, this one being 323 with the hunting god Diana as their insignia:

Here is one of the most expensive and time-consuming watches on this board. In 1993 I got sick of getting a ring for another 300 game, so I decided on a watch. It still works to this day. If your not sure why I think it might be one of the most expensive or time-consuming, take a guess...

Well, you must have spent everything on the watch because your camera and/or photography skills are...

Dave, your too much... Yea, I have an older (like Gen 1 in Viper talk) Nikon Coolpix that does not focus well up close, but it does take great pictures after about 3 feet or so. Also, I did not want to spend too much time on the picture since that would have only added time to the cost of the watch... When I saw that a person can kind of read it, I thought, crap... close enough!

I guess I could have taken a picture from further away and blown it up and then cropped it. Maybe I will try that sometime, but now the f...ng battery is dead!

by far the best watch on here. i just wouldnt know if i would encase it in glass and put a laser security system around it or wear it on my wrist and never take it off. i suppose you can keep getting it fixed, so wear that puppy! (just may want to buy a few dozen more and keep them for parts).
