Remember the 80s and wearing multiple watches on the same hand? I just may do it when I roll through Dubai in a couple of weeks! For shock purposes only of course! Would YOU do it??

No, no chance.

Now triples are different.

I wore two watches, one on each wrist, when I was deployed in 2003-04. One was an automatic GMT and the other was a Casio with dual time function to keep track of the local time and three other time zones. I knew when it was a good time to call my kids in the US. Back then it was normal for leaders to have two watches on, not to make a fashion statement but because it was practical. My2c.

marcinthemiddle · 5 January 2011, 01:40 AM

Well...not if both of them are going to be on NATO's to begin with...

Actually, no.

Stormin' Norman did in the first Gulf War. Wasn't one of them a Rolex?

It could've been a Rolex although I thought it was a 90s Seiko divers with the red and blue bezel. I could be wrong...

Thomas · 5 January 2011, 02:45 AM

No

DueceJohnson · 5 January 2011, 03:44 AM

No I wouldn't

looks cool! haha

PeiMei · 25 January 2011, 03:28 AM

haaa, the castro shots are hilarious

witch watch · 25 January 2011, 04:23 AM

If you really must ,wear one on one wrist and one on the other.

dddrees · 25 January 2011, 05:18 AM

I rthink they have to be the same kind if done on the same wrist. Chronographs with Chronographs, or all divers. If worn on seperate wrist then they can be different. Divers on one wrist and GMTs on the other.

Almost looks a bit tacky like mismatching sock colors if you don't coordinate them somehow.

Sorry Eddie, nothing personal. Great Collection by the way. LOL

blackmsport · 25 January 2011, 06:50 AM

Fidel needed to tell Russian and Cuba time in order to coordinate an attack in 1963

marie · 25 January 2011, 07:11 AM

I only wear two when traveling to a GTG.

There is NO way my watches are going through security any other way.

Rags · 25 January 2011, 07:50 AM

Definitely not for me..

cedargrove · 26 January 2011, 02:01 AM

One of the receptionists at the RSC was wearing two watches.

KirkWilfred · 26 January 2011, 02:52 AM

Yes!

Jan Davis · 26 January 2011, 03:02 AM

.

Poohsan · 26 January 2011, 04:33 PM

Well if they are both on NATO straps why no put both heads on one strap?

But personally I would not wear 2 watches. (MY 2 Cents)

figbo · 26 January 2011, 11:09 PM

Totally missed the 80's!
