wedding ring (comes off for climbing, stays on for riding but I wear full finger gloves), watch (black citizen ecodrive thingy) and 2 earings (small stainless rings)
Engagement ring, Nose ring, up to 16 earrings depending on mood of various sizes including big wooded things shoved through stretched holes, numerous body rings, nice watch form posh or TomTom watch for heart rate etc.. couple of silver bangles and an option for various other bits n bobs depending on the situation. For work I look like a normal with everything out of my face and suited and booted.
With those big stretchy earrings, do your lobes remain stretched to the full extent when you remove them or does the hole shrink to some degree?
only thing I wear now is 2 nipple rings
never worn a watch
used to wear a leather necklace with a silver symbol
Used to have both ears pierced twice - 80s
Erm..
Nothing.
I hate anything flapping around wrists or rings that clang on desks or tables.
Each to their own BTW.
I’m just a bit “no thanks”
Cufflinks, yeah I own a couple of pairs of those silk knots.. and a pair of gold 50’s designed things from my grandfather. But wearing them? Nah, that’s all a bit early 00’s red braces YahYah for me.. even at black tie do’s I’ll wear button cuffs.
Watches, I own 7. All bought because I liked them. But they’re not status symbols or anything bling. Just functional and subdued. Never wear any of them, in fact 4 have batteries flattened.. the only one I really love, and occasionally comes out to play is my original TAG F1 in tasteful orange and orange strap (and I have the steel bracelet too) bought with my first salary after Uni. It looks tiny now and yet when I’ve worn it (once a year maybe) someone’s always commented on it... probably because it’s so small and looks a bit limp compared to these planet sized faces you get these days. I might wear it today, thanks for the prompt.
I’m not so sure of those wrist leather/braided bracelets, some look nice, some obviously mean something Thai Religious/spiritual but most look untidy and about to fall off. Couple of IB guys I know have them, one proclaims “it brings me luck” yeah, whatever. It looks like it’s about to fall off mate is all I think when I see it pop out below his cufflinked shirt cuff.. 🤷♂️
Wedding ring and a watch (change which one I wear according to mood). Thankfully cuff links seem to be a disappearing accouterment so don’t bother with them unless black tie, absolutely pointless things.
I’m 65 soon, I’ve never cared much what people think about what I wear, I care even less now.
52 here and thinking pretty much the same. Age is a number, nothing more.
I used to have earrings (3 in left; 1 in right), and took them out in the mid-1990s. Otherwise, I had a wedding ring, a watch, and a small chain with a cross.
My wedding ring got cut off after a bike accident for which I needed surgery (a number of years ago) and I have never replaced it; the watch I just got out of the habit of wearing; the gold of the chain wore through.
I have never replaced my wedding ring, and only in the last year have I started to wear a chain again with a cross again. I have two watches that I like, but I always forget to put one on.
prince albert
Help For Heroes wrist band thats been on there since I went to RAF Akrotiri back in 2009 i think it was.
Watch and a wedding ring for me. I donswap the wedding ring out for a silicons one when I’m working or on the bike. I suppose I could just leave it off but I’ve worn one for so long (well, 16 years anyway) that it feels odd not to.
