The Alien watches gathering
Trying to collect watches that are related to popular culture. I love scifi movies, and Alien franchises are probably some of the best scifi movies ever made. So it’s a no brainer to collect these watches. The Seiko Giugiaro “Ripley” from Aliens 2nd movie and the Casio A100, a reissue based from the F100 used in the 1st Alien movie. The Casio kinda too small for my wrist, so now it belongs to my wife. wish it was bit bigger.
What other watches related to scifi movies can you guys recommend?

I kinda like the Seiko “Ripley”. Looks very cool and industrial with all then angles.

Been eyeing on this one too. Maybe use my daughter as an excuse to the wife, saying that it’s for her 😅

Agreed. 🤝🍻
Very nice. You should be on the lookout for a vintage Seiko Pulsemeter S234-501A. That's the watch that the Colonial Marines wear in Aliens. They're quite difficult to track down unfortunately and are pretty highly sought after by collectors. I was recently outbid for one on eBay as a matter of fact.

Don’t have this yet, but it’s on the list. Models of this Hamilton weren’t just for Elvis, they are in all of the Men in Black Movies (and Spiderman, though that ain’t really SciFi)
I love movie watches! 🍿
Weird! Today I put my Ripley on for the first time in at least a year, opened up watchcrunch and this was the top thread!

I really want them to make more. When will it be back in stock?!?!
To be honest, she wore 2 f100's. You could always get the piece that connected them and get a 2nd a100.

Yes I know. Not really practical for daily use 😅 and now the a100 already belong to my wife so that’s that…
