I have worn and loved wristwatches since I was a kid. I have, as an adult who can (sorta) afford to do so, collected guitars, skateboards, sunglasses - vintage Ray Ban and modern Oakleys. And so at was inevitable that I'd wind up (sorry) with a bunch of watches as well. It began with a Gen I Seiko 'Orange Monster,' and despite what I regularly tell myself, shows no sign of ending. Moat of my collection are self-modded Seikos and 'homages' of prices I'll never pay full, authentic prices for (im a teacher looking forward to retirement!)
