Patagonia 1 watch 3weeks
What to take on a motorcycle tour?
Needs to be reliable, comfortable, adaptable to daytime outdoor & evening indoor use.
Narrowed it down to 4.
Have decided the CasiOak is too hard to read the time.
The Timex came on the last trip (excellent travel companion).
The Certina 38mm is my favourite overall.
But after doing the lume test, I think we might go with the Milgauss inspired 39.4mm by @Mr.Santana bracelet my only query. The others have rubber straps. Is it tough enough for the trip?
We’re going to find out 😀

Hope you had a good time on the mortor cycle tour my friend. I’m honored you went with the mod! 🥂
I did a search for ‘motorcycle watch’ and this came up. I think it’s awesome. I’m not a biker? But I’m a lefty, and I might have to snatch one up myself.

Thank you. That’s very interesting. Did not know of the Alsta brand. 16mm is a bit chunky but a great reference back to the Jaws movie.
