Conundrum

This watch is creating some confusion in my life. Never been a huge fan of Seiko, most certainly not a fan of green dials or gold anywhere on a watch but somehow this just absolutely clicked for me. Love it.

Maybe this is some secret government experiment, using chlorine in the drinking water and COVID vaccines to subjugate humanity. We are being reprogrammed people!!!

Have you ever had watch you pre-judged but then it turned out to be a rip snorter?

Wake up sheeple!!!! Yeah happened to me too, with a Seiko no less

There’s something about the alpinist that just clicks. We have curved rubber straps for the alpinist and it gives it a totally different look, you can preview it directly on our website

LOL!! yeah we're being "reprogrammed" alright ... damned gubmints!

For me it was "skeleton" watches ... but I saw this one on the local F.B. Marketplace and just had to have it (plus it was only 35 bucks! LOL!):

Now, I'm still not a fan of skeleton watches per se, but I do love this one. Runs like a top and keeps good time too!

Yeah, mine was the SARB017 Alpinist. I thought the 4 o’clock crown and crown guards asymmetrical and ugly, and the use of gilt and Mercedes hands garish. Now it is by far my favorite and I love the points above. (I feel I have to apologize as I keep mentioning this watch on the forum, practically fawning over this one.)
