New shoes for old timers!

These are the most memorable watches in my collection. Story time!

The Sonata was my first watch. I got it during middle school, around 2009. These super fibre watches were very popular back then. I still clearly remember the yellow second hand ticking during my high school exams. It came with a rubber strap, which is long gone. And I wanted to try something fun, so got this mustard yellow strap to pair with the yellow second hand. Originally I ordered a no-stitch variant, but they sent this. I ended up keeping this, I like the sporty like on this one 😀

Now coming to the Exacta — my father bought it during his first year of employment, in the '80s. It was sitting in the box for a long time. I recently got it repaired and then put on a fresh pair of green straps (I'm just liking this shade of green) replacing the damaged metal bracelet. So basically, I inherited this one. 

Details of the watches:
Sonata SF 7930PP01, 2009
