53 Serious Pieces of Arm Candy That Tell Time

— September 23, 2008 — Fashion
In some circles, watches, not phones are used to keep track of time. Watches also keep track of the sun, the moon, the day, the date, your blood pressure, barometric pressure, Dow Jones Industrial Average, Sarah Palin's travel schedule, (I jest.) Some of the watches are futuristic and others are totally retro. But all are serious arm candy.
