If there was such a thing as a "Skinnable" watch, would you buy it? Think how cool it would be to have a Rolex in the morning, and Tag Huer after work at the bar, and a Bears (or insert your team here) watch for the game??..

You come to a skinnable site and ask such a question? Of course, we would like it. Anything, to help entertain us through the boring daily routines, such as working on a computer or constantly checking your watch to make sure you are on time.

No, I wouldn't buy it!! I like my watch the way it is! But maybe I'm a little boring... It's enough skinning the computer.

Gucci makes a partially 'skinnable' watch for women. The bezel is removeable and can be changed to a variety of colours and designs. Quite nice. I got one for my wife about 8 years ago along with about 20 different bezels. She still uses it on a regular basis.

When ya go to a mall, it's hard to find a Swatch. Swatches used to be popular 'round here. Everybody wears cheap or cartoon characters watches.

How cool would it be to upload your "Rolex" face for work, then a Cubs or bears face for the bar.. or a digital interface today, analog tomorrow and "Movado Museum" for Friday?..
