I would recommend, highly, the Oakley "TimeMachine" watch series for casualwear, outdoor, and streetwear.

A very rugged design, titanium, and with options for bands and colors. Their popularity is catching on quick. ($995. - $2,000. - the "bling, bling" edition.

You've got to be kidding me. That watch looks HORRENDOUS in my opinion, not to mention the ridiculous price tag.

Jesus if you're going to be a shill at least put a referral link in your post. Might as well get paid for it, you know?

Why wouldn't he own them?
RFX is a cool guy but if you're measuring coolness by watches owned, I think you want to reconsider that assessment.

And yes, I do own the J12 and I got the J12 probably 2 years ago.
If I wanted to impress anyone, I think I would pick a much more impressive watch than the J12.

What's funny is I fall into that age range, always wear a nice watch, and check my phone for the time half the time, lol.

If you have the wrist to wear it (I think it wears bigger than the BP, JMHO), go for it, it's an awesome watch! Also love the Ingenieur Vintage.

I'd like to know if you'll still like it 6 months from now.

The Big Inge looks overwhelmingly bigger than the BP.
Not my pic by the way.
