Ultimate Tool Watch …

Hello dear friends !
WristScan starts on Friday and our theme is “Ultimate Tool Watch”.
Traditionally the "Tool Watch" was a watch made with a certain purpose in mind. Examples included aviation watches, dive watches, and chronographs. They hail from an era when these were the only ways to make calculations important for certain tasks. For example, the bezel on a dive watch was how divers know when to begin to surface. Many of these functions have now been replaced by modern electronics, such as a dive computer. Tool watches are distinguished from of types of watches that were simply to tell time, such as a dress watch.
My personal definition of the “Tool Watch” was a watch that I could dive with during the day, game of beach volleyball late afternoon, shower and then arrive for a cocktail with Ursula Andress and then dinner all with the same watch on my wrist … Still looking appropriate !
Join in, have some fun and show us your personal definition of “Tool Watches” this weekend and let’s redefine this classic watch category for 2022 !
