Love/Hate

Anybody have a watch that they either love or hate depending on their mood? Some days I look at my skeleton and swoon over its beauty. On those days I just have to wear it. And other days I cringe at its oversized gaudiness and want to sell it.

Anybody else have that sort of whiplash about a piece?

Cool one ☝🏻

It is a beauty but I know what you mean. My experience of that watch was that I had to look twice to tell the time more often than I liked so I moved it on!

I know you are in the medical field. Radiologist perhaps?

Jokes aside, I love skeleton watches but most are, in fact, on the larger side of the wearability scale. My favourite would be the 39mm Orient Star RE-AZ0101N:

I had this on my wish list for a long time. I am not a skeleton guy but I feel like this is a good way to get into a skeleton dial without paying big bucks. The watch it self was just too big for me. I am usually good with 39-42 and this guy was a monster.

Yes, actually, two dress watches - both are skeletons too. I wonder why that is.

I own the full carbon one and it wears a bit smaller then suggested and with the fact that it’s an all black watch it makes look even “smaller”. But it’s still not as small as some people would like it to be

Funny, I actually fell exactly the same with my Tag

Sometimes I really like it, and on other days I want to sell it 😅

I love this P-51 chronograph, but like yours, some days it feels too big. I think I’d regret it if I sold it.

I'm in good company then!

Yes. I had a Seiko 5 Monster that I low key hated. I ended up selling it.
