New Piano Market Statistics: Inside the Quiet Transformation of Piano Playing

For those of us who spend our lives on the bench — whether teaching, practicing for a recital, or simply playing for the love of it – the piano has always been a singular concept: wood, felt, strings, and soul.

Need help finding a ultra light/thin watch
on: January 04, 2013, 08:15:03 PM
Hello everyone,
   I have been looking for super thin, inexpensive watches so they wont interfere with practicing and I can't seem to find one. Does anyone know of any women's watches that aren't to expensive and are super thin/light?? Please help!   :)

Super thin tends to be really really expensive...

I gave up on wrist watches years ago.  I have a really nice little pocket type watch which hangs from my belt (yeah, I'm a guy so maybe it doesn't count) which cost all of $12 US and does just fine.  Can you rig up something like that?  I had a lady friend at one time who had a similar watch which she pinned on her skirt with a decorative little pin.  A bit different (but she was a bit different, anyway!) but it looked nice.

Oh yeah, I forgot about pocket watches. Can you quickly clip or pin them on? Because I am going to be in quite a hurry for the mornings.  :P  I have also seen those timex watches that are inexpensive but really bulky, and that seems like it's to case for all the cheap sports watches.  I guess I'll ask this, does anyone think it's worth it to spend that much more money for a nicer watch that is thin and light?

Try this watch, I use it every day and it has never interfered with my practicing... in fact half the time (GET IT?) I don't even realize it's there!
