Scan Day, This Friday: Old Reliable


our "Think Different" scan day attracted some interesting messages and photos, so let's have another "themed" scan day, this coming Friday (and weekend). And let's go to the opposite end of the spectrum, and look at the "Old Reliables". We have done similar themes in the past, but I am suspecting that some of us may have changed our "old reliable".


  • Last week we saw some watches that will definitely attract attention; this week let's see the ones that you might wear when you just don't want to be bothered or noticed.

  • Which one do you wear around the house, to work on the car, or to work in the yard?

  • Which one would you wear, when it might get a knock or a brush against the (metal) door post?

  • Which one goes on your wrist in the morning, when you're in a rush and don't even want to think about it?

  • Which do you think of as you "go to" watch, when you just want a good, reliable, no-nonsense watch?


All of us must have one of these "old reliables", so let's have a look. Of course, you are always free to go "off-theme" or to announce your own theme.
