lanikai Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 The other day whilst commiserating with Ubi.. I found another thing we have in common.. I do believe there are more out there.. given the nature of our hobby.. or obsession is the correct euphemism the other day while walking into the bank I realized I left on both watches on each wrist.. (like I think this is common behaviour) ... .. so I quickly turned around in the entrance and slipped the watch on my right wrist into my pocket.. the thought did occur to me that security was sending up a red flag with this sudden movement... this is not the first time I "forget" that I had both wrists covered... I do this mainly to keep certain movements functioning 24 hours a day.. It get's worse (or better) while at home in front of the computer or watching a dvd.. I have 4 going .. and slowly turning my wrists (I do have watch winders btw, but not enough of them).. While driving I have 2 on my wrist.. and usually one in my left hand.. so when I come to a stop light I swirl the left hand to keep in moving.. but I decided this looks strange to the car next to me so I lower my hand.. .. this looks even more bizzare.. if ya get ma drift.. Some soccer Mom.. may call 911 cause there's a perve on the road... so you can come outta the closet with your tale of double dipping.... .. or quadrupple or more... and yup.. I have set combo's throughout the day, From when I get up to when I go to the gym.. market.. coffee. shop.. they all take turns..it helps to have a travel case in the car.. Lani's watch winders.. I kinda like the hand wind watches.. go figure.... sand yeahhhhh.. I got the permanent mark on my wrist from the crown rubbing against it..and now a callous on my knuckles from the watches I hold in my hands whilst rotating them ... what's your story.. or a double wrist shot ??? AC Lani
Utheman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I'm guilty of two at once. Sometimes I use my Dyna-bees to help keep em wound
Ronin Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Wow. First, just noticed, did Lani go "Mac" looks like an iMac and Keyboard. As for double dipping, for me, it feels strange to have something on my right wrist. Might have to give it another go. Hmmm going quad looks like it would be tough to....
OmegaPOFL Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 lol that's funny i have though about it...but have never actually done it. damn man, i didn't know you were tatted up like that!!!
lanikai Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Posted October 23, 2009 Only Warren ??? common guy's your amongst friends.. we won't tell...
Toadtorrent Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 It get's worse (or better) while at home in front of the computer or watching a dvd.. I have 4 going .. and slowly turning my wrists (I do have watch winders btw, but not enough of them).. ...and what kind of movies did Gioarmani send you?? Just kidding. You are living my son's dream. Everyday he tries to get me to put lots on each wrist. I RARELY accomodate him outside of the house. This is his reference (Bananas Gorilla):
lanikai Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Posted October 23, 2009 Humor the kid .. befor eyou give him a complex and he ends up with more than one watch when he grows up... another future member of RWG... !!!! AC L
Toadtorrent Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Who in their right mind would have more than 1 watch in the house? I mean really...
dbutlerman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 It was written "One shall only be alloted enough watches as he haveth spaces in thine watch winder," I think thats in the Constitution, May Flower Compact, or maybe the Magna Carta..But the Bill of Rights gives us an exception for their Manual Winding Brethren....
dbutlerman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Do you ever switch up the twins UBI? Black on Left, White on Right?
ubiquitous Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Hmmmm... Not anymore... Since the black dial has been re-homed, I don't have the chance to anymore. But I do sport Omegas on each wrist, or IWCs... Those work as well
dbutlerman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 You sold the black one? Wow...lucky new owner
Nanuq Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I understand Ken can keep five watches winding at the same time, though I can't imagine how he does it. You guys are loony! My watches demand my undivided attention so I dare not attend to more than one at a time. Sorry ma brotha, looks like you're the king of double or quad dipping!

I think Ken resembles the movement of a hula hoop when winding his.. Nah.. no one else want's to admit it...

Sorry ma brotha, looks like you're the king of double or quad dipping! I'm with nanuq the watch cook. No mechanical Menage a trios for me. I'm officially certified chrono monogamous, ma brotha. I do wear my watch on my right hand, always have. Toad, your son is going to be one lucky heir to the watch throne.

I am a free spirit... if I were married or attached.. this would not be an issue...
ChipSlap Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 You're in good company, Lani. BTW, that Doxa on your left wrist is supabadass like Bruce Lee.
TeeJay Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I've never been one to wear two at a time, but it sure is awesome to see the right hand ink
maxman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I have never really considerd wearing two watches at once. I normally take a three mile walk In the morning. I grab a watch and take It for a spin. I dont set the time unless Im going to be wearing the watch outside the house. I like your two wristed routine Lanikai, I think I just might give It It a go. Mike
trailboss Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 OT but I think it's time for an inter fora tat contest! Col.

jjenk Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Maradona 2 daytonas: I think the Italians took those from him to pay some of his back taxes when he entered the country recently. That'll teach him to wear 2 watches.
