commented on Tell me your watch journey origin story! ·

I blame it on my Willard wearing father . He destroyed it working in it ( pity ) and my grandfather destroyed a MAS62 original also being a panel beater and spray painter in it ( picture multicoloured like Jacob’s Technicolor dream coat only a watch ) . Ahhhh how do you not get sucked into the only thing to fixate on in the 1960s and 1970s , my Uncle Alan wore gold Grand Seiko’s . Bone coloured boots dressed like the guy from the Saint . ( polo necked sweaters and trouser flairs .

Great Uncle Jack wore an old watch a Waltham oyster style watch I inherited when I was 7 17 jewels Incabloc movement. It was broken and the old stretchy metal band it was on fascinated me. My Uncle got it fixed for me, then I smashed it in a bike crash 💥. Hard not to be a watch lover around my family.

commented on Thoughts on Wooden Watches?? ·

Machined out of Jarrah or even or Tasmanian Blackwood or Ironbark or Ebony … Rosewood maybe but a 🕰️ clock not a watch ….
