The curious case of Portuguese day disks and their explicit hint on Fridays

Would give a pinky toe for one of these. Gorgeous!

commented on a post ยท

Pressed the first by impulse.

Didnโ€™t even bothered to scroll or read what you askedโ€ฆ

commented on First time looking into vintage ยท

33mm is quite small for a maleโ€™s wrist but thatโ€™s just my biased opinion.

1995 makes it at best neo-vintage so nothing remarkably old, so good and bad aspects to consider there.

Quartz movement, which should be great if you consider a less expensive Chronograph, however a bit pricey in my opinion, even being a Omega.ย 

Just one guyโ€™s take but take sometime to dig deeper ๐Ÿ˜‰

Good luck!

commented on Jobs in the Watchmaking Industry ยท

I have nothing constructive to shareโ€ฆ

Just that they are old fashioned and big on paper, so mailrooms across Switzerland should exist in abundance.

Bad humor aside, if writing itโ€™s your interest then I would think in editorial terms.

Think of brands that have editorial arms i.e. a self published magazine (big brands, but very well staffed with people with a lot of editorial experience, think Omega).

Or publications focused on the watch industry that editorial is their primary business (publications you likely already consume if youโ€™re into watches).

If youโ€™re really into it, go for it nevertheless and stress test it here WC or by sending it spontaneously to editors in those publications.

Good luck!

commented on Any titanium watch or bracelet ideas for me? ยท

I have consider this one for a 18mm lug titanium field watch I have.

Liked the design and looked comfy.

Consider in advance that case and bracelets might not match in tone, if youโ€™re ok with that, I would try to find an after market.

Good luck ๐Ÿ˜‰

commented on Holiday travel roll / packout ยท

Nice! ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
Youโ€™re lock stock and ready.

I usually pack lighter when have to catch a plane and the single case usually comes along. This time also brought a leather sleeve.

My Seiko Giugiaro.
Itโ€™s one of my favorites of all time.

Was my work watch for years and still looks in my eyes like a million Yen ๐Ÿ˜
