I thought you might appreciate this link, Jeff, although I have to admit I only read part of the article myself :

Great article. It's amazing how well traditional watches have fared in the face of digital cheap watches. But they are a visible personal style cue that makes a huge statement. I have very strong tastes for very particular types of watches. Luckily, the ones I like are $250-400, not $10,000 range.

I wear a black plastic Casio that make the statement, "State Employee."

A man with no pretensions.
To counter the Cowardly Lion inside me, I have created a Delta Force persona over the years, which includes military style watches and radios. Freud and his ilk would have a field day with me.
