Watches

[jsm7302]

Anybody into watches? What do you have and what do you recommend. Just starting to look into this cult like hobby of collecting.

Rolex, AP, Patek Philip, Hublot…it depends on the budget.

I've got a Breitling. Understated and not as played as some other brands. 

[Blue Heaven]

I got a Tiffany watch, All White Casio G-Shock, All black Michael Kors watch, Apple Watch, then a couple of other cheaper watches (Black Lacoste, Brown Lacoste)....but since I got an Apple Watch, I don't wear my other watches unless I am going to some sort of fancy party.

I have an 8 year old Apple Watch and the screen protector is broken

My first watch i ever bought was a Breitling. Bought it for $1000 at Tourneau like 30 years ago. Still have it and even wear it sometimes.

Take off the screen protector

I'm not sure what I'm aiming for. I want something to wear daily; was looking at the brand Hamilton. I'm going to take a look at some of the brands listed. I have wierd smaller wrists so anything too big looks dumb.

There’s no such thing as a nice MVMT watch.

40mm is probably best for smaller wrists. I have small wrists too and i don’t usually wear a watch larger than 40 or 41mm

I have a few Torgoen. Made out of air craft material, reasonable, well made without being over the top, decently priced, and good for every day wear

The Apple Watch has seemingly become the daily driver but I bought a Tag Heuer Formula 1 and Omega Seamaster Bond 40th anniversary edition years ago that only come out on special occasions.
