Morning wrist shot

Had some time before work this morning and thought I would snap a quick shot of my most recent acquisition. Love the champagne dial color that it has aged into and has the classic hippocampus on the back 😍.

What are you wearing on your wrist today?

I love it! Then again, I love Omega. Still, a lovely example. I'm wearing an ESQ from the late 90s/early 2000s today. #wruw

Really like the gold edge of the bezel and the jeweled crown on that! I have never seen an ESQ before but definitely has a cool vibe!

Thanks, @Bmaj1856! ESQ is a Movado brand. It was designed as an entry-level to Movado. This model has a Swiss movement and very sturdy construction. The original bracelet is long gone, so I replaced it with the oyster style you see in the photo. This watch is a hodgepodge of designs, but somehow Movado made it work. The original bracelet looked like a jubilee. It has a coin-edge bezel, but it doesn't rotate. Then the top of the bezel has raised pips giving it that sports/industrial vibe a la AP or Hublot. The dial has a dress watch feel with its guilloche dial and roman numerals. And like you said, the jeweled crown, just like Cartier's cabochon. Very strange but very cool.

The Casio Duro is a great watch for the money. Great choice on the strap color. Matches it perfectly.
