How I got into watch collecting - first post
Recent Comments
I own a watch winder with settings to match the individual watch requirements. I use that for the one watch in my automatic watch collection that I wear more than once a week. That way I always have at least one watch ready to go when I need it. This gives me, in my opinion, the best of both worlds: the hands-on relationship I enjoy coupled with convenience
The dial. Blows me away every time I look at it. Wouldn't have paid the price if I didn't feel that way about it
Always use my right so I don't have to take the watch off. Just seems normal to me although I'm sure ut looks awkward
3 years ago I was sure I would get one with a power reserve indicator. Turns out that since I don't wear any watch for more than days days straight and I have a dozen in my collection, I've never needed the functionality. Plus I have a watch winder for my weekend timepiece. But I like the look and can see the benefits
Yes, I owned a vintage Smiths and it ran beautifully for a few hundred dollars. There are some very reputable dealers out of the UK.
5 hand winds, 5 automatics, one quartz and one vintage tuning fork, which also runs on a battery. I think hand winds are my favorites overall, but my Omega Aquaterra is my most favorite. My quartz, given to me by my mother when I started my business, is my most sentimental piece, and is in my regular rotation
