Ok I have dilemma for you.

Like most of you, I have a wristwatch that I love (birthday present from my girlfriend), but I fully expect Apple will eventually come out with an iPhone nano that is the same size as the current 6th gen iPod nanos (usable because of nuance voice control integration, Siri AI, and iCloud connectivity). Some of those "made for ipod" watchbands which are currently available are pretty upmarket and stylish - and it would mean one less object to carry in my pocket. My questions for you are:

1) Would you buy/wear one of these as a watch when it appears?
2) How do you explain it to your non-techy other half who gave you the present in the first place?

I'll probably end up wearing my gift watch as a dress watch occasionally.

I just went through the whole thread and I must say that there are some nice time pieces. I'm still looking for the right Pam for me. Until then...

Rolex platinum yacht-master...

My wife's Rolex datejust with black mother of pearl dial and arabic numbers. You won't see this combination often especially since it has been discontinued.

I love the Yacht-Master. Definitely one of my favorite Rolex watches. Its quite unique too!

It is unique and very discreet since it doesn't stand out like the SS sub or the TT blue dial sub which are quite common. I believe it's also the only Rolex model that has a platinum dial. A close up...
