My EDC is pretty straightforward:

- iPhone 5
- Apartment/room keys with an attached 16gb USB drive, along with a dolphin and #14 billiard ball keychains.
- Spyderco Tenacious (easily the best econo folder on the market)
- Wallet with debit/credit cards, assorted girtcards and rewards cards, license, school ID, and some cash.
- Pocket tube of Vaseline (dry skin and lips suck!)
- Usually a small pack of tissues during spring (allergies)
- Timeco Moonphase analog watch

If I'm walking to class or to study ill have my backpack with laptop, charger, v-moda over-ear headphones, books/notebooks, whatever pleasure book I'm reading, a notepad, assorted office stuff like pens/pencils, a mini stapler, tissues, hand sanitizer, and a spare flash drive and iPhone charger.

May update with a pic later if I feel like it lol, but that's about it!

Yup, $4K easy. These are watches that are still hand assembled and precision crafted. There's no question that they are insanely expensive but as an artisan, I definitely respect the work that has gone in to crafting the timepiece.

you cant scratch the face, its made out of sapphire crystal. the band yes, but the face no.
not unless you take another diamond and purposely scratch it. but everything else. nope.

Nice dude! I've been eyeing a Tissot auto (the rose and black one) but I hate watches on straps and there isn't a bracelet for it.

EDIT - what is the model number of the one you have? you don't mean the $100k+ Bentley edition, do you?

Most of my watches are $500 or less but I have lots of watches.

Sapphire is definitely the only way to go for a crystal on a high end but I'm cool with flame fusion on my quartz.

We need a watch thread, haha

To get this back on topic. My everyday carry is:

Wallet
Droid Charge(horrible phone only works half the time for me)
Car Keys with a couple cards on it and apartment/parents house key

In the future I will be getting a new wedding band since I  lost my other one.

Umm, sapphire is the second hardest (scratch resistant) material next to a diamond. That's why it is used in high end watches

saphire definitely doesn't scratch.  i've got two tissot t-touch watches and both have immaculate crystals.  Unfortunately they both broke (one of them twice) and I'm probably not going to get them fixed again.  Time to move on to bigger and better things.   :))

I've collected high end watches for some time and while Sapphire crystal is definitely amazing and with a good anti-glare coating is a beautiful sight to see - it is definitely not without its faults. Sapphire crystal is more resistant to scratches, but is actually quite brittle, so it is prone to chips and cracks from impacts.

ok I will revise my meaning to say this. I have plenty of evidence that my sapphire crystal shows wear. I would call it scratches... but it could also be classified as chips. .

That is definitely true. That's why Invicta uses Flame Fusion crystals in most of their watches. You get the hardness and impact resistance
