Reply With QuoteI decide on the day.
I will only venture to the pub and back so no point wearing anything too flash.
Something for timing the Turkey might be an idea!
Edit it’s going to be my Omega 165.024 on grey nato.
Who knows now what time piece will be on their wrist on the 25th?
Who leaves it to the morning of 25th & picks the watch depending on how they feel that morning?
Who is still trying to whittle it down from a possible list?
Who has a watch they always fall back on come special occasions / Christmas?
I've been thinking about what watch I'll probably wear & I think it will be this:
A long standing part of my humble collection & a favorite to be honest (obviously that is, very likely, subject to change).
Whatever you decide to wear, Happy Christmas & a Healthy & Prosperous New Year!

Learningtofly - It appears we joined Timefactors at near enough the same time, yet you have managed to post over 36,000 times more than me (just an observation) lovely watch by the way.
It’ll be this one….

As has become tradition, one that only I notice, I will be wearing my grandad's watch.
He was a lovely man, respected by everyone and made a big effort to make sure everyone had a good time at Christmas.
Omega Seamaster – 1965 – Grandad’s Watch
Never heard of it, looked it up and it looks nice.Originally Posted by Passenger
No idea what I`ll wear for Christmas Day, as each year passes my enthusiasm for Christmas continues to diminish.......bah humbug!
Thinking about it, this could be a good choice
1967 Constellation, bought in 2014 as a fixer upper from an auction, finally got around to fixing it in December 2017 when I decided to sort it out as a Christmas present to myself. Watch was finished and complete a few days before Christmas, wore it Christmas Eve and the setting lever spring broke, which pissed me off greatly. After an evening's 'socialising' I decided to fix the watch before going to bed, dial side had to be stripped down, setting lever spring replaced, dial and hands refitted. Approx 1 hrs work, job got finished after midnight, watch was good to go for Christmas Day which pleased me greatly.
Haven't given it any thought, yet. Probably one of my two IWCs. I do make an effort for Dec 25th.

I only heard about, saw the watch because of posters here. Long live TZ. Just feels a little too special to me to wear as a daily, also has a fair amount of real estate, surface area, non sapphire crystal so too risky for me for the parental/ daily rough and tumble, amphibious stuff...really lovely thing though and for economy money.Never heard of it, looked it up and it looks nice.

Nice looking watch and back story you have there.
SPB251J1! Very nice present.

Christmas and Bday watch.
This no doubt, unless my IWC returns from service before then, which I highly doubt...
I’m planning to wear this for Christmas dinner, but on a grey strap to match the dial.
During the morning for slouching around though, it’ll probably be my Longines Heritage 1967 diver… as the red bezel gives off a Christmassy vibe.
I'll be wearing this one, so I can time the turkey to a 10th of a second.
Probably need an outdoor hobby...how about motorbike riding and photography...yadda yadda wink wink.LOL. And thanks
Have a good Christmas Tony - lovely choice for the day!
You are not my son are you - cos he had this on his list (ain’t getting it). A fine looking watch.
I’ll be wearing my Milgauss through to the new year.

Thank you, this was such a good price (less than half) in a sale earlier in the year I grabbed it and its been hidden away since.

For me it will be the fun and festive gold 'Blingmaster'. It always puts a smile on my face.

More than likely this, my late father in law's - he passed away 8yrs ago on the 27th Dec.
It’s a new watch day for me having taken receipt of this 76100.. I think this will remain on the wrist over the Christmas period.. I have a BB54 but the 76100 may well displace that watch and result in it being moved on..
I want to remain a one watch man if poss!
This where Alcohol is going to be consumed!.

Love it. Sent me to look at old photos of the one I used to own, only to find this is the one I used to own. Hope it’s treating you well.I'll be wearing this one, so I can time the turkey to a 10th of a second.
Took it out last night. It's not the one that I wear the most, and it's not the most expensive. However, it quite possibly is my favourite.

I usually change my watch every day, but I shall be wearing this from this evening until boxing day:

I've owned two of these, sold them both, and every time I see a picture like yours I think why? WHY?Took it out last night. It's not the one that I wear the most, and it's not the most expensive. However, it quite possibly is my favourite.

Oh wow! I bought it from Watchfinder in March 2020 and absolutely love it :)
Yes, I traded it to them. It then sat with them for what seemed like forever, I kept looking at it thinking I’d made a mistake and then it disappeared. It originally came from ashford.com for an unbelievable Black Friday price so at least I made a profit when it went to Watchfinder.
Not so sure, haven't planned that far ahead!
Maybe my GMT Master would go well with the Christmas jumper!
In other Christmas news my friend was gifted this!

As I’m in charge of cooking this year - timing is all important, so probably will be wearing this to prepare dinner
“ Ford... you're turning into a penguin. Stop it.” HHGTTG
Probably this, in that exact setup. All day long :)
This one for me, as the green is very festive (to my eye, at least!).
Yes I was looking at it for ages and made a tentative enquiry mid March 2020. As lockdown was on the horizon, I was made an offer I couldn't refuse. It is nice to know where it came from originally :)
I’m not sure there’s a good chance it’ll be my PAM321 as it rarely leaves my wrist lately. However I may go with something else. Maybe.

This one, always this one. Somewhat of a tradition…
Just back from a long overdue service.
Christmas watch in position 👍
Probably the custard.

merry Christmas.
I'll be wearing my 14K gold 1959 Hamilton "Bradford B"...
Maybe something with a date.
Or with a bezel.
Or neither.
I may be too lazy to change....

It will be this one for me.
