Default Men's Jewelry

Ok, my thread on men's messenger bags (hey, it's leather, not the genuine imitation) concluded that a real guy probably won't carry one, so my brother-in-law is not getting one for his birthday. I was just reading the following article and thought to ask what jewelry you wear.

My F-18 friend wears only a simple gold wedding band and his big ass pilot watch (so tacky, but what can I say?). Anybody into necklaces? Rings in other fingers? Or God forbid, earrings and noserings?

Being female, I have no such inhibitions, and wear my wedding ring, anniversary ring and my favorite blue diamond ring. My right hand, of course, is firmly clutching the Big Gavel.

Just my nipple rings, don't want to be too ostentatious.

Holy Smokes, Diver, what happened to the picture of your pocket protector?? There is, in place of it, a big red sign saying you are a bandwidth thief!

As I understand it, pax pilots wear a wedding ring and watch. Cargo pilots have nipple rings. During the interview, the presence or absence of this piece of jewelry is the tie breaker in two equally qualified candidates.

So, Diver Driver, what cargo outfit flies a CRJ?

only a watch on my part.
Only thing I would consider would be a thumb ring or something (other than a wedding ring, but I'm not even remotely planning on that).
A inconspicuous necklace could work, but nothing fancy ;p.
All in all I'll stick with the watch

I only wear one now. I find that less is more.

Might have something to do with my internship at an un-named major cargo carrier back in my hippy college days. I have a necklace and a watch, but it's big.... like Flavor Flav's:
