Return to Watches

Hi everyone, my name is Jimmy and I have been a watch "wearer" all my life but for a long period of time I got sucked into the fitness watch world and became a devot Fitbitter for I believe over 6 years. After dealing with a bout of depression my fitbit made me feel even worse. Fewer and fewer hot goals and steps. I had to stop wearing one and go back to my old love and my first watch I had was a Timex expedition with Indiglo. I've been a watch lover for a long time but really knew very little about automatics and manually wound watches. I did know they existed because I won a manual pocket watch from a crane game machine. That was my dress wat when I was about 10. I'm so happy to be back into watches at a time when so many brands are making such incredible affordable watches. I want a Rolex Submariner one day because I grew up watching to many old bond movies. Might stop and get myself a Tudor Black Bay 58 or something like that before I reach for my I guess grail watch is what people call it. Anyway, I'm Jimmy and I love watches.

Thanks. I know. It the 1st watch in person I ever had to ask what it was. I was hooked. One of my dad's friends was wearing it at a NYR game and I had to ask and got to hold it. It's gonna be a special day when I get my self that one.

Welcome! Check out the Black Bay 54. Same exact dimensions of the original Bond watch. I thought it might be small, however it fits well on my 7.25 wrist

Thank you for the welcome. Seems like a cool community. I've been here for 2 days and have had nothing but positive interactions with people. You can ruin that and tell me to F off and make it seem like other social media platforms. Lol
