None of the poll names fit. Maybe Darth Vader. Maybe the “Kiwi” (The all blacks—get it?). Panda is so descriptive.

Where the rest of my "I'm no fun, I hate nicknames" crew at?

So relieved to see this represents 70% of us... The only two watches, IMO, that should have nicknames are the Hulk and the Batman. The End. Hate these new-age watch trends.

I know i know, there's a group who hates nicknames. You don't have to participate.



Option 1: the Black Panther. or the Wakanda?


Option 2: the Black Widow


Option 3: the John Wick


Option 4: the Winter Soldier
Fear of missing out on a watch nickname? Wow, life must be good for you if that's the extent of your worries. Or maybe not. A watch nick name for material thing should not be keeping you up at night. Nor should it occupy real estate in your mind.

What's wrong with a Rolex Daytona Black dial 116500 who needs silly nicknames for any watch.

Mechanical watches are unnecessary and should not occupy any of your mind real estate.
