I get by without wearing a watch or a ring. I do not have an i-phone or Samsung Galaxy.

BTW my Toyota Corolla 1995 car odometer reading at this moment is just 50 miles short of 240,000. It still runs great. Unless it dies, this will be the only car I possess during my lifetime.

Could be a limited edition - which bring exclusivity and bragging rights. The difference between men and boys is in the price of the toys they buy.

Yay, we do have something in common! I have never worn a ring, and I stopped wearing a watch several years ago.

car safety standards have greatly improved since the mid 90s. i know your car runs great, but wouldn't you want to consider a newer car for this reason alone?

Count me in with the no-ringers (!)..wear the "special" ring only on rare occasions. The main reason being(professional)..had to it off all the time..and it was perpetual handwashing. I like a nice watch -never more than $50-100..love to give watches as gifts! As a multitasker - juggling a lot and a stickler for punctuality and meeting deadlines, need that.

No iphone or Samsung Galaxy. Get enough e-mails and texts (too much these days) through my blackberry to keep up and check other pressing stuff:) Got an ipad. I like cars- cool American cars (the big 3)..but, do have one with 200k + for sentimental reasons.

>>>>I am sure I have a couple of watches lying around, including a somewhat high-end one from my employer a couple of years ago, but haven't worn one in years. The last one I wore was a Casio. I do wear a band on my ring finger. I have worn a neck chain for years and have taken a lot of ribbing over it - disco look yada yada yada, but would feel naked without it.

I guess this $690,000 watch makes Nadal happy (and he can afford it):

Only a million $ watch will even be the least bit impressive at this point!

GN everyone!
