For USD33, I'd have bought it

A little Swatch love today with this 90’s Scuba 200 model…

There's always the time in the year when I don't want to wear anything other than the GOAT:

Timex today

@RobeOfTheMagi haha God Tier! Ive got a few F91W and love em. SO cheap too

[jiminstitches]

I picked up a few Sugess mechanical chronographs, These were only £150 each and I’m amazed at the quality. Realistically I’m not gonna get these serviced as it will cost more than the watch. Any one got any of these?

For some reason my inner voice read that in a thick Scottish accent .

@AdamJ I got a very similar one for my wife years ago! And if we’re talking Sostem51, here’s one she got for me for my birthday. I love the fun dial and the fact it’s all made by a robot.

Nice!

Vietnam era Hamilton Khaki with fat logo and radium dial. A lot of wabi sabi but a lovely little watch.

@jiminstitches very nice selection! Is the bottom watch the one that gets rave reviews online for its cost/value ratio?

[jiminstitches]

@long_john86 yes that’s the one, it’s a field watch from the 60s, it also came with 2 additional leather straps and a stainless band, crazy value!

Another Hodinkee model. This one I got for about a third of retail new in eBay. I almost felt bad…

[jiminstitches]

that might be the nicest swatch I’ve seen of yours, that white!

[Matt]

Last one for a while (maybe). This one’s pvd coated stainless steel with a thick leather strap…

[goosehd]

@Matt I thought you didn’t wear watches….

[Matt]

I go where the wind takes me.

[Matt]
