commented on Do you still research about a watch after purchase? 😅 ·

Yep 100% I like looking at it again and again before it arrives, I only bought another one 2days ago and already have another picked out. Also thinking I should of bought the next one instead of this one that's on order. Makes no sense, but it's fun all the same.

commented on What is the fascination with GMT watches?? Is there another purpose of knowing the time elsewhere? Will it ever go away? ·

I have always wondered the same, I have absolutely no need to own one. But I'm like you I think I might just buy one at some stage if they look that cool. Haven't bought a pagani yet have a few on my list might need to add that one too.

commented on Have you ever bought a watch and thought, well, that's ruined my collection? ·

Nope, it's only one watch at the end of the day. A collection contains many watches. No way would it sway me towards how I would view the rest of my collection. I don't think I will ever buy only one watch that will write off the rest of my collection. It's all part of the fun. I go through phases of wearing mine, certain watches become flavours of a particular month or week. It would be boring otherwise.

I decide in the morning, the odd time I have got halfway through the day and thought I have worn the wrong one today. But 90% of the time I get it bang on.

It's a hard one to describe to be honest, it's a very personal thing for me to pick one out in the morning. I don't wear them to impress anyone else but myself, and I'm not a fashionista matching them to my attire, the odd time maybe with a nice casual shirt but I wear a uniform at my job so don't need to worry about that.

One I don't wear as a daily at anytime is my Orient Bambino, it's beautiful and I only wear it on special occasions. I sometimes think it's a shame, but when I wear it I appreciate it even more. Also that domed mineral crystal and my clumsiness is not a good idea on a daily basis. Though all my other watches are in the mix of been worn everyday.

commented on Does Anybody Own 2 of the Exact Same Watch Only in Different Colors? ·

I own two Casioaks, one in green resin model and one in Metal. I reckon that counts...😂😂😂 I'm also still tempted to buy a stealth black model too... Make it a hat trick.

commented on Journey to OP36 (Larger Wrist)... ·

Really nice colour.

commented on How much the quality of your tools changes the way you operate ·

I have used varying kitchen cutlery, paper clips, thumb tacs, and a hammer to remove links on my watches bought online. I have managed to do it this way but it's very time consuming and a lot of bad language was used in the process. 😂😂😂😂 Though with a proper kit I could probably do it a lot quicker. I keep meaning to order one online. Maybe this post might spark me into doing just that.
