Obligatory Wristwatch Thread

[Duke]

Bought on whim. Bezel and insert replaced with a coin edge/tan&brown


Leaving any Rolex/JLC/Patek/omega in my car while I hit a mountain bike trail is just a total non starter

This is a great piece for that role.

I have the same watch, but I stopped flying with it. The Garmin seemed more appropriate and I care less about it.

I think the bezel adds a good vintage feel.

What airplane is that? I miss “Round Dials.”

The Garmin’s are pretty slick.

Which one is that? I haven’t run across that dial color.

Which one is that? I haven’t run across that dial color.

It’s called the “Seiko suit” series.

A lot of them are understated. Comes with a similar bracelet that doesn’t taper - I replace it with a tapered from strap code as I don’t dig straight 22mm bracelets

You didn’t really need the sign know…

Are those new at an AD?

[eb07]

I absolutely despise large watches so I have found two watches that are perfect size for me. It is all I wear

Newest addition that is right in my wheelhouse size wise.

Double tap, my apologies

Are those new at an AD?

Yes. And they are not for sale


Which means someone like you or I has already been promised these and the AD is holding them to keep the cases looking full. To give the illusion that you can walk in off the street with 10-17k and just buy one. Which you can’t.

I know a guy who has a couple of those pieces. And he’s an unapologetic Rolex fan boy…but

Even he knows this is total bullshit and has started finding interest in other brands.
