I have always been a big watch guy. I have a couple of watches that have a theme for time itself! I have two Xeric watches, one that illustrates planets (minute/hour hands) rotating around the center. Very cool.

I also have a “faster than light watch.” That one is probably my favorite watch in my collection.

1.) Faster than Light watch



2.) a planet orbital watch



What do you think of them? Any of you collect watches? My most valuable one is my dad’s Rolex submariner. He died and left it in his will for me.

I don't really collect time pieces and clocks. I just don't throw them out after they stop working.
I have about 8 clocks of no value, 1 stop watch, 1 pocket watch, and 20 or so wrist watches of dubious quality. A few were gifts so that makes sense - but really.
I have not worn a watch for some decades.
