I have fake, not cheap (but virtually identical) Tag, Rolex and Breitling replicas. Not for their chronographic functions or their fine construction. But because they look so good!

I actually had a key chain just like that when I had an apt in NYC and LA. I am a slender guy and wear tight fitting suits, jeans, etc. I found it to be too bulky (and I carry a N900). I also was always worried about the quality. I only carry 3 keys with me on a daily basis; House, safe, and car.

I use that - one of the balls at the end is threaded and comes off to add or remove keys. Since I do not remove any keys and I don't want the ball coming off EVER. I use Locktite (the same product I use for many of my firearms that have screws) to secure it in place to make sure none of my keys will be lost.

The horse shoe design makes it easy to tuck my big BMW key into my sweatpants and then put the open end of the horse shoe over the elastic thus giving it a pretty secure and tight fit. Perfect for the gym when the pocket of my sweat pants are on the seam and everything falls out when you sit down.

I had a lot of cars before (4+) and 2 homes, it was not logical for me to have that key chain - thus I had one like yours. But I found it bulky even when I removed many things.

Point being if I have to deal with it every waking moment - it is worth it. If you think in the manner of, "Every second I am not aggravated with this product I will pay a penny for it" then you will realize that many products that you carry are worth the money, such as a LV wallet - going on 7 years of owning it now and looks brand new.

The house key is probably the most valuable possession so I always keep it guarded e.g

I know all of you are pretty passionate about your mobile devices - nothing on the market right now seems appealing AT ALL compared to the N900, what do you think you will do?
Iphone 4 and Viliv n5 till Moorestown takes off in 2011.

and here i was thinking to myself "where on the interwebs can one find an insightful anecdote about personal items such as keyrings and wallets." all i can say about this thread is, i must've totally missed the circle-jerk.

How does the brand make those items you carry the "BEST" for anything?
