Nicknames for our watches...

Hi guys,

Ever thought about giving your watch a nickname? Here are a few tips...

Omega = Ommie
YM = Yammie
Explorer = Expy
Sub = Subby
GMT = Gimmity (Ed must be furious at this one)
Daytona = Dayto
Panerai = Pansy (LOL at Daren, Bruce and Shane)
TAG = Taggy
SD = SeaDeep

...and so on....sorry, it's 7.30 in the evening and I'm literally the ONLY person on this forum.

JJ, you have too much time on your hands.


To some of us, a watch is just a watch. Why would I want to give my watch a nickname. I don't give my car a nickname, or my computer, or even my kids. Get back on those meds, pal.

LOL! Sorry, guys, I know that post was a bummer and a borer. But I was well and truly fed up all alone and so thoroughly bored that even my senses were dulled and my brain had come to stand still.

Oh, oh.....have I just let myself in for some more flaming from Adrian and Ed?

I'll pass on this one, JJ. You made it much too easy, like shooting fish in a barrel. That's no fun.
