Online Purchase disappointment
Always puzzle me

I like this, the same for me from South Africa, where a Omega costs a whole year's income, sure there are some people that can afford the likes of PP, AP or RM, that would make about 0.5% of South Africa's population.
I have one of the original sistem51's, you have to see it for what it is, a technology and engineering experiment, it is a fun watch, If you think of the swatch watch as a brand, I think the sistem51 is the ultimate swatch. Fun, interesting and quite a engineering feat. maybe people can argue that the MoonSwatch is the ultimate Swatch.
It is great them changing the logo, to me it showcases their journey, if you think about it, a startup watch maker want their brand to be recognised, thus using their name, then rework the name a bit, once the name get a bit of following or recognition, it is time to create a logo that can be associated with the name, and I think this is where Cward is at, they matured and is ready for wider audience, I must say I miss the old Christopher Ward brand, where Mr Ward send you a hand signed letter congratulating you on your purchase, felt really personal and that you part of something interesting.
Love Victorinox, the build quality is outstanding. Pity a lot of people exclude them from their collections, they really missing out on some unique designs.
I reckon Hamilton is one of the best collectors entries, great history, awesome movement, great build quality and very affordable for what you get.
Tissot is often overlooked, the LeLocle is such a stunning watch, or even the PRX is quite special:
At the end of the day, you have to start your collection with something you really like, you have to look at the time and feel happy and satisfied and then sometime just look a the time to look at the watch, be it a Swatch or a Patek Phillipe it has to give you fuzzy feelings.
