Being honest about what watches you like

I'm about three months into this hobby and while I started with one Timex Ironman watch, I now have six watches (Hamilton, San Martin, Steel Dive, Sei...

Any Aliexpress purchases - people want to confess to

When I read your posts, I get educated about watches and I am energized by your sense your wonder and curiosity about watches. You show an appreciation for expensive watches, but not because of their price but because of the craftsmanship and technique that was applied. I don't appreciate watches the same way, but I enjoy listening to someone who does.

Also, you talk about watches as if we are having a conversation not a lecture - which makes it interesting to read. This is an imperfect analogy, but the only way I can approach your level of observation in describing an object is if I had to describe someone's sandwich: Today I spotted I man in a light blue hoodie eating a whole wheat sandwich in Dolores Park. The bread was from Acme Bread company - their seminola is immediately recognizeable. The cheese was likely a Havarti, though many would mistake it as Swiss. The pastrami glistened in the sun and was moist and spreckled with pepper. ...

Are we going to let the community pick out watch for this challenge - scared of the answer 🙄

Interesting...I'd win this hands down IF I wasn't traveling overseas, because I'm that boring guy that can wear the same watch for months..at a time. I WAS that guy before I joined this forum a year ago... I'll be in Costa Rica during this challenge...so you are going to force me to buy an international data plan 😠 No business meetings and nor formal events (but even if I did have them...I ain't losing this challenge). You people have no idea..the stubborn in me. Picking the one watch is the easiest part: I need a watch I can swim, snorkel, and hike in. No bracelet for me -- it is time for the G-Shock city. See you all in 15 days.
