About

I love watches. I love the way they look, the way they work, the stories behind them. I've had people call me a watch-a-holic. I'm constantly looking for "new" vintage watches to buy and thought I would use these pages to show the best finds of the day. But, you better act fast before I buy it out from under you!

Looking for something specific?

 

What about Rick Perry’s watch? I’m disappointed in Rick. When Rick Perry is in full monkey suit mode (suit & tie) he wimps out and doesn’t wear a watch.  As can be seen in that last photo, he still wears that big ass Texas A&M ring though. I guess when he dresses down or is going all sporty, it looks like he wears a plastic Timex Ironman.  Hard to say exactly which model, one that has a black case, black strap, and large silver button near the bottom, but Timex makes so many variations of the Ironman, it will be hard to pintpoint. Kind of fits his image I guess, as a down home regular guy. But the combination of no watch and then plastic crap watch, is sure to lose him the fickle watch-nerd constituency.
