@Matt that's a cool one

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Indeed!

I'd love to have a Seiko Pogue (6139-6002) but these watches are a minefield nowadays.

I decided to wear my Swatch from when I was 10 today, despite not not working. I love it too much to have it sitting in a drawer forever.

@Anesthetist i believe you still owe us some pics of your collection…

@Matt only one word to describe that watch….”Bitchin’!!”

[Mizmazzle]

Stand back and be amazed at the artistry!!

@yannis Nice Nodus. I’ve been wearing my Random Rob Sector Deep.

They are pretty cool watches. I like the new gmt that is going on sale tomorrow.

[Matt]

Got a couple early 90’s Swatches in new condition off eBay…

[FlavourFade]

Great addition to your collection @Matt

I still wear my willard all the time.

[Matt]

Willard is on my list but I don’t feel like spending the money.

[FlavourFade]

@Matt yeah it is a lot of money, but my only watch in that pricerange and also got it with a 20% discount because the dealer closed their business. This watch is one of the few things I can wear everyday without getting bored

I just got a watch! Hamilton khaki field in bronze. I've never really had a watch before. This one should age nicely.

[Matt]

Very nice. Love that strap.

@Rangadello Beautiful watch that I have looked at many times. What are your thoughts on it?

[Rangadello]

@goosehd I've only been wearing it for a few hours, but so far I am really enjoying it. It looks and feels very new... but that should take care of itself in time, and I think it's really going to age nicely. The dial size feel just perfect, and the build and material seem very solid and high quality. The matte finish of the bronze is very nice. Strap is comfortable. I love how thin this watch is (~9mm I think). If I had one complaint it would be that the lug-to-lug measurement is a little long. It would fit on my wrist a bit better if this measurement were a little shorter. And if I ever go without a nato strap, there is likely going to be a bit of a gap there. But I am perfectly happy with this strap. And overall, I am very happy with this watch.
