Homage watches..... thoughts and feelings?

A sucker is born everyday. Fair warning, if anybody tells you that you've won something but you need to pay something in advance (tax / shipping / import duties / bank remittance fee), it's most likely a scam.
I waited all my life to get that call from the dealership to get the chance to buy my purple striped monster truck...... 53 years in the making. I even took up a love for country music to qualify.
Once you go down that rabbit hole and develop an interest in mechanical watches, there is no end. ;-) It's a never ending battle to "scratch that itch" once the honeymoon stage wears off on a new timepiece. That feeling of excitement with the purchase of a new watch and going through that honeymoon is addictive but nonetheless very satisfying. There are tons of nice budget mechanical watches out there so I'm sure you won't have any trouble finding one, or two, or 10 that you might like. Of course, if you've got deep pockets and lots of cash burning a hole in your pocket, there are lots of luxury and extremely pricey mechanical timepieces out there that will put a nice dent in your pocketbook. The one that sent me down deep into that rabbit hole was a Hamilton field watch.
One can never go wrong with a white dial watch...... they are so pleasing to the eyes and easy to read. Enjoy and wear it in good health.
That strap couldn't be more perfect for that Seiko 5! Another strap to consider is a black rubber "dive" style strap with orange stitching.
