Some of you may be thinking that this is just a silly question, that God, being omniscient and omnipotent, not only knows the time if He were asked, but is in fact, outside of time. The only way that He could be omniscient is indeed if He were outside of this petty human concept that we identify as time and which we break down into three distinct shapes that accord to our own perspective: past, present and future.
But enough of this metaphysical discourse. If God wore a watch, I think he would have to wear something to complement his long flowing robes. And his hair. It would also have to be of the best materials, so sorry silver, but you’re out. God would only wear platinum or gold, and God with a gold watch would look a little cheesy, doncha think?
Okay, would it be water resistant? Of course! It’s God’s watch! You think it’s going to break if He wants to go for a swim? I think it would be a relatively simple watch, because God favors simplicity, doesn’t he? Maybe just the date and day of the week. And some diamonds. Come on, it’s God, he’s not going to skimp on the diamonds. God, if you’re reading this, can you give us a hint?

No one likes skin and bones, unless it’s the skin and bones of your watch, that is. It’s actually really cool to watch your watch work – all the cogs and wheels turning really gives you a sense of the craftsmanship involved in the making of your timepiece. Some skeleton watches are front and back, some are back only, some are luxury, some are everyday wear, some are sporty, and some are casual.
In deciding what kind of watch you want, it depends on what your daily needs are. Then take into account extraordinary activity like how often you encounter water, and how often you want to wear your watch. You don’t have to spend a ton of money on your watch to enjoy it either. Many skeleton watches today can be had for around $100.
These watches are attractive because they are different, and are fascinating to watch. Be careful, though! You don’t want to be caught staring at the beauty of your watch’s mechanisms all the time because people may think that you can’t wait for an event to end and take it as a sign of rudeness. Or they may ask to see your watch.

A lot of people think diamonds are best reserved for special occasions, but this simply isn’t true. Yes, certain ornate pieces of jewelry and watches — the kind that compete with the chandelier for attention — are probably most appropriate for holidays and celebrations, but not all diamond pieces are this showy. Womens diamond watches, for example, are often demure enough for everyday use.
The appropriateness of your diamond watch really depends on three things: size, quantity, and color. Watches with large diamonds are usually on the more formal side, so you can keep things casual with gems of a smaller size. Similarly, a watch covered in diamonds is bound to attract attention, while small amounts of diamonds embedded along the strap, bezel, or face — note the “or” — are safe, subtle choices.
Color, too, is very important; white diamonds are more likely to stand out on yellow or rose gold, and virtually any pattern of colored diamonds (with the exception of black) is going to elevate your timepiece from your daughter’s piano recital to an evening at Carnegie Hall, whether you want it to or not.

Looking to buy watches? I always shop for fine watches at www.Bacario.com, because the selection is just fantastic. There, I found funky Techno Marine watches for my offbeat fiancé, sporty Chase Durer watches perfect for my little brother, and elegant Charriol watches my mother will love.
When I’m looking for a fine watch for myself, it’s all about Cartier. Available in two colors, the Cartier Santos 100 just drives me wild – the stainless steel case and alligator skin wristband are such sophisticated materials. And roman number hour markers? Very classy.
