Wolf's Den

[Wolf]

I have owned the Apple watch for a couple of years now and I'm finally getting around completing some of my achievements. I already have the Perfect Move and Perfect Stand achievements. I just need the Perfect Exercise to complete the Perfect Week for all activity. Like the achievements below.

Today is day 5 and I pushed myself do to a couple of miles of walking. What was weird, I did 30 minutes of walking and I only received 15 minutes. So I pushed myself to the next level of jogging/running and what is completely sad. I'm in my late 30's and about a couple of minutes of running. I was completely out of breath. Back in the late 90's. I use to run pretty well until my side started to hurt me. I believe it was my kidney or something, it felt like it was ready to burst.

But anyway, I weighed myself a few days ago and I was like 194. I keep forgetting to weigh myself, but I'll try to remember in the morning. I guess when the fantasy fatball comes around next year, hopefully, I won't have much weight to lose.

WTF???? It's a watch. You use it to tell time. It may do other stuff but it shouldn't be rewarding you (training you) by giving you badges.

Badges?

 

[Wolf]

Yea the watch has many features it basically a mini iPhone on the wrist. It also a fitness watch, like a Fitbit.

I’m trying to get back into shape, so I’m using the health features to earn badges. But it makes feels good by reaching to my achievement.

When Sunday comes, I will finally achieve my goal and have all of these badges.

Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges.

I prefer badgers.

We ain't got no badgers...

From badges to badgers.

I finally accomplish all of my exercise achievements this week to earn of the final badges.

I just received an email, that my Apple watch is ready to be shipped. Now I'm waiting for the carrier to pick it up and ship it to me. I suppose to receive it the 2nd week of October, maybe I could receive it sooner? Again here the series 3 model, what it suppose to look like.

I tried to find that cool pic of your watch box/case but I can't remember where you posted it.

So I haven't worn a watch in years. The last watch I had was the nicest one I ever had and it was a mid range Citizen. I'm not into super expensive watches even when I want something nice. Recently I have been wasting a lot of time both at home and work browsing Amazon, looking at watches. I've now been looking at watches that have thermometers, barometers and compasses on them. I sit at home and play video games and sometimes go to the movies so I have no need for these features at all but I just think they are cool. I've also looked at the Bond watches but they are all WAY too expensive. Casio makes a very cheap one that is called the "Casio Royale" cause it kinda looks like the one from Octopussy but that's dumb. I think I want one that is both analog and digital because they look neat. I'm not even sure if I will ever buy one but I sure have wasted at least a few hours thinking about it.

These are cool and at a good price:





If I bought it I'd replace the band with some kind of cloth one.

If you're going to get a real watch, get a real watch, not one from a 1970's calculator company. For less than $200, you can get a Seiko automatic mechanical watch. They're built like tanks, they're manly, and they'll run forever.

This one is nice and about as cheap as you're going to get with Seiko. I like the nylon bands.

This link has my watch box.

Pardon me, but do you have the time?

I don't see your images, you posted. I believe Amazon links don't work in the media icon. You keep using, just be easier to post the link.

But I just searched "Casio Royale" it looks alright, something from the 70's like scotch described. If you are looking for a thermometers, barometers, and compasses watch. I believe Android watches have something similar and they are a lot cheaper than the Apple watch.

My research tells me that a 40 mm case should the the biggest to consider for a nice man's watch. Not sure why but at least a few sites I've checked seem to agree. The casio ones I look at are all a few mm's bigger than that.

Could be your ad blocker. I turned mine off for DRC and now I can see the Amazon links.

I'm not really in the market for a smart watch but I have been looking at some of those too.

Probably, but I just hit reply and copied the words between Amazon and google them and see the watches now.

They do look great, not my type of style. But the twin sensor analog watch looks pretty nice. But the other watch has tons of better reviews.

I'm not a fan of nylon watches when I received my apple watch 3. It came with a velcro strap and that bothered my wrist. I just stuck with metal and plastic rubber bands. One day, I will buy a black leather strap.
