Not all watches are created equal
Recent Comments
I went about 7 years without buying a watch and in that time sold off a few. In the past 6 months I have bought 4.
During the drought I didn’t buy anything because nothing took my fancy. The increase of watches in the 38-41mm range has seen more options for me as of late.
The 147 is an odd-one. It must a must pick-up for me, I bought it just after I picked up the Fujitsubo/Barnacle, and I don’t think the 147 stacks up to that watch. It’s more expensive while being less premium feeling overall. It keeps terrible time, which makes the 70 hour power reserve useless when you have to reset the time regularly anyway.
I still wear it, and I still enjoy it on the wrist. I don’t like it as much as I thought I would though and I don't think it’s worth the $.
lug to lug is the main thing I look for in a watch, and I’ve noticed that short lug to lug always works for me.
