A good number of my watches are ones I can't wear to "work."

I could get my throat cut at some of the places I've worked if I were to wear some of my watches there...

At first, no (why own two nice watches), then yes (I want a collection), then I'm leaning back to no (why spend $$$ if you can't really enjoy when you go to work- I spend a lot of time work & status symbols are frowned upon).

I'm a bit torn between a gold DD or a PP 5712. And for whatever reason, now the Grand Seiko spring drive sbga001 "snowflake" is popping into my head...

I have a weekendish watch- my TT sunburst- initially it was on my wrist as soon as I got home... but now I'll go to work with it.

About 1/2 my collection are vintage dress watches, so not really appropriate when working (police officer). Wish I wore a suit and tie everyday, would be able to get more use out of my collection. Now that we're in long sleeves, I can wear my Airking more and my vintage Seiko diver less at work.
