Pocketwatches... What do you think??
 
I didn't see this anywhere so, pocketwatches....
What do you think about them? I like them. Are they only a guy thing or can girls have/use them too? I think both can have them. Which is better, covered or open? I like both. Also do you have one? I do, as a matter of fact, I'm working on a collection of them.

I love pocketwatches but sadly have none. It seems everytime I have enough money for one, they're either gone or the price was raised.

Try going to yardsales. I got my favorite pocket watch for five dollars at a yardsale in Manhattan, NY.

I would like to get one. :]

What do you mean an item? As in an item on Menesha?

(Randomest topic ever :XD ) I never really felt the need for a pocket watch, but i think their really cool. Whenever i think "pocketwatch" my mind pops up the picture of the rabbit in Alice in Wonderland with his cute golden watch...good times...

Akasha 08-04-2009 12:09 AM

XD Never mind.
I was being stupid.

@ Little Miss: Well I was sitting on the couch looking through the forums and listening to my pocket watch and decided to make this thread. I love my new one becouse it looks like the one the White Rabbit had.

i adore pocketwatches.

two guys in my english class last year received them as gifts in our gift exchange and i was jealous because all i got was a regular clock :C

Hughesmunculus 08-04-2009 12:11 AM

I haven't found a pocketwatch at a yard sell yet.

I LOVE POCKET WATCHES! I gave a silver one to my gf as an anniversery type of gift.. well she's an ex now, but we had awsome pocket watches and they're the most awsomeest accesory other that top hats!

I HAVE one. :3 I got it for a penny on ebay. Like, five dollar shipping though, but it's still amazing!
I'll get the link for you guys.

I LOVE pocket watches, and I'm considering collecting them. (Originally I got it for my boyfriend, but he dumped me. Oh well. <3)

Pocket watches :3

.:TheRebornAngel:. 08-04-2009 12:15 AM

@ SKITTI3S: That's sad.... I would have sold the clock unless it was really cool and bought myself a pocketwatch.

@ Hughesmunculus: Keep looking!! You'll find one!! eventually.

Jitter! Well, um... I think you know this, but I believe girls have a right to have pocket watches! And I like them no matter what they look like as long as they tick. ^.^

.:TheRebornAngel:. 08-04-2009 12:21 AM

@ Hal: YAY!!! Yes I know. Considering you have one too.

i don't like watches lol i have a cellphone
who needs a watch and a cellphone?
but to answer the question pocket watches are pretty nifty cause some are pretty detailed and what not.

FFF- I'd would love to have one!
Throw it in my pocket and leave the chain out, that'd be hot. 8D

I love pocket watches. I think they are very dashing. They remind me of the victorian era, in which is my favorite time period. My boyfriend used to collect them (until he realized that college was drawing closer and he was in dire need of a license and car...) and I think that's what got me so attracted to them.
As for me, I prefer how the closed watches look. Something about a man casually pulling a watch from his breast pocket and flipping it open to check the time is attractive.

I would love a pocket watch. Though, whenever I think of them, I think of Doctor Who. I'm so weird.

I haven't seen anyone (man or woman) wear a pocketwatch but I think they are cool just the same. I don't see anything wrong with a woman wearing one (I would personally anyway).

Oscar the Wild 08-04-2009 02:57 AM

I love pocketwatches. They're just so pretty and old-timey.
