How do you guys feel about jewelry?

 

Personally, I don't wear anything besides a watch, which believe it or not I use for time. A pharmacist I drink with sometimes wears 10 rings, 2 chains, 2 bracelets, and a watch - 24kt gold. I should ask him if it's a culture thing, he's Indian, and from my experience - I've seen many Indians with a lot of gold. We go out and people just stop and stare, one time he had an hour long discussion with a jeweler we'd been drinking with. *It depends where we go - typically he only wears 5 rings and a bracelet, since they tend to rip the gloves. DON'T WANT TO CATCH HEP OR ANYTHING lol

 

I've seen people get earrings on their tongues or belly buttons - which to me is really unattractive. I could never even pierce my ear, I just don't see the point, and a lot of females look fine without it.

I wear a watch and a wedding ring. Jewelry is fine, though I don't have a high opinion of face piercings (standard earrings excluded). What I absolutely loathe are the big plastic rings some idiots use to enlarge their earlobes, don't know the name.

I don't generally love a lot of jewelry on men. A watch is fine. ONE ring is fine. I can deal with an earring, but meh to much more than that on men. Body piercings do nothing for me, and tons of baubles, necklaces, and bracelets on a man look tacky to me,

 

For myself, I usually have my watch, wedding and engagement rings, and small earrings, often with a necklace. I might go for bolder jewelry if the occasion calls for it, but I don't like to be dripping with jewels in general. I dislike most bracelets, with come rare exceptions, and rings get in my way and annoy me. My only piercings are my ears. Sometimes I think about adding another hole or two, but I probably won't do it.

I work in a scientific laboratory environment where anything on hands restricts ability to put on / take off gloves, and necklaces risk getting dunked into beakers when they're being examined unless they are kept firmly secured underneath a shirt or labcoat.

 

Therefore, I have a wristwatch only, which is, like Hung Wang, used for timekeeping.  Bringing in a phone, much less grabbing it with a gloved hand, just to keep track of experiment times is a big no-no.

For Indians, jewelery can be considered a cultural thing, though there're not that many people I've seen wearing that amount in public lol. Rings are usually worn for religious purposes. They are supposed to be a sort of lucky charm and every stone/metal has some different meaning/ is used as a charm for something different.

 

I wear a ring and a watch, a very basic one, because I'm too lazy to take out my phone whenever I want to check the time. My family has a lot of jewelry, though only worn on really special occasions and for the most part, are used as investments.

I don't wear jewelry when I go out except my wedding ring. Occasionally I will wear a digital watch.

 

In public, I prefer not to advertise or display having things of high value. Instead, I like to blend in and not attract potentially unwanted attention.

I wear my wedding ring when I leave the house. Nothing else. I quit wearing a watch about 20 years ago when I quit caring what time it is. My wife has an iPhone, and is our official timekeeper. I did start wearing a Kangol hat about 20 years ago when I leave the house... so I guess I traded the watch for an awesome British hat.

2 silver chains + 1 gold, 1 silver watch, pair of small diamond earrings, used to have a bracelet, but broke up with ex so binned it lol

A necklace, a bracelet and a watch. Thats it for me.

 

Though I wont lie, I'm attracted to women with multiple piercings. I just dont ever see myself getting any.

No giant clock hanging from your necklace?

True, how do you know what time is hammer time?

I can't really say I have an opinion on this one way or the other. I've had several piercings before, I wouldn't really recommend them. A lot of jewelry can look tacky on anyone but it can also look good.

Haven't seen the silver ones I don't think.

I started wearing a polo cap for a while, but stopped... I was worried I'd lose it or someone would want to horseplay with it. (Which makes me angry... haha)

 

It's funny I posted this yesterday. Today a female patient was at drive thru, she had pierced her forearm. She had 2 studs in it and I think a rod going under too... why? It's so bizarre.

I occasionally wear my watch and a ring my grandfather gave to me. I usually only use it when I "go out," rather it be dinner, a movie, or some type of event like a wedding. I think too much jewelry on men or women looks extremely tacky, but to each their own.

I  wear usually only a watch.

Sometimes bracelets too:

Where's that?

Ears, lip, eyebrow. Not good for much but leaving scars.
