Watch

Hi. I take off my watch like most people when playing golf. But find it a hassle to take out watch to check for time once in a while. Thinking of getting a cheapo watch to hang onto golf bag or one of those golf watches that hangs to belt/pant. Any suggestion? Wonder what the rest of you do?

I have an old Seiko Divers watch that I use for golf. Personally experienced several watch failures due to shock damaging the movement of 2 of my Omegas, and decided that it would be cheaper to get something more 'disposable' -- a Casio digital watch or a cheap G-shock would probably do as well...

I have a simple Timex velcro-strap watch which I wear when I play golf. It's light and effective.

I hang one of those pocket watch on my golf bag. Anyway digital watches, those chapalangs, are so cheap, cost about $4 - $5.00 depends where you bought from, you can afford to buy a few of them at one go. For your info, they last as long as originals. In fact until their battery flat and I threw them away as getting new batteries is just as expensive as getting anothe new one. A good place to buy from is Ghim Moh Food Market. From Tuesday to Sunday you can see peddlers setting up stores from about 9 am to about 1 pm .
My 2 cents worth.

I wear my Gshock, but it's quite big and the tan line i get with it, oh my gosh! hideous..

Thanks guys. Will look for a cheapo BIG display watch to tie to my golf bag.

For me, the watch I used depend on what my flight mates use.......

Not sure where u stay, but you can find the following

1. Watch design in the form of a golf shoe, found along side stall outside OG at Sim Lim Square, $5 one ( or it is $10 ? can't remember but it is cheap )

2. Big face, hanging watch, many design, with cover or without, found at shop near beside KFC Toa payoh, near the road. $ 10 to $12.

Use my handphone

Hello,

There are plenty of watches for sale at HDB heartland. Each costs a couple of bucks only. Alternatively, we can use last year's lucky draw shower clock. Hang in on the golf bag, big and easy to read + waterproof.

been using my 25hour
no problem so far

I look at the sun position to tell the time.

Hmm.. I usually use my phone, but recently saw a few ads on selling pocket watches for hanging on golf bags.. i myself was thinking if its necessary.

Either way... you can always hang a watch on your belt or you can always use your handphone
or just leave a watch in the buggy...

How often would you look at the time when ur playing anyways?

I use Casio G Shock not on my wrist but hanging on the Golf Bag.

I either ask my flight mates or ask the caddy for the time....
