I'm from Alberta, Canada and have been collecting (something) in some capacity since 1988. I've been early-retired since 2013 and now live in Doha, Qatar with my wife who loves moving from country to country in her quest to educate as many young minds as she can. I'm new to collecting watches and have only recently rediscovered my longtime love of timepieces after a lengthy pause following an unpleasant experience with a beloved watch that soured me for many years.

If you want the movie watch you need the 42. If you prefer less on wrist the 38 is it. If you want a true field watch there are other options that are less "dressy" to choose from made in many price ranges. I own the 42 myself and it's a going out/evening watch for me. That said I wear any watch in any situation so don't listen to me. 😁
