Beauty

This watch is freakin' beautiful. I love that Arita porcelain dial. It's one of my watches that I can't stop looking at when I wear it.

I have a Garmin I use for all my training needs. It stays on my right wrist and I typically don't wear a mechanical watch on my left when I'm riding or doing a workout.

Mine's purely for fitness tracking. I always have it on my right wrist while I wear my "real" watch on the left. I have the biggest Epix Pro model (51mm) because my 54-year old eyes can't see small text so well, anymore.

Yes! I still can't believe how inexpensive these watches are.

I think that depends on your idea of a dress watch. I don't consider this a full-on dress watch, but rather a dressy or smart casual watch. I like to color match my watch to my clothes, but I have no problem wearing this or my Arita porcelain one with jeans and a decent T-shirt.

I adore this watch. I may even like this Arita porcelain dial better than the dial on my Grand Seiko SBGA493, and that's saying something. I mean, the GS has clear advantages in the polishing and that sort of thing, but this porcelain dial is gorgeous. I've always loved a good white dial, too.

commented on Am I the only one who is not a fan of these watches? Even if it cost $1,000 I would not even buy this. What do you think ·

I love them, and I own one of the originals , but I'm always looking for interesting watches. I'm over boring watches.

commented on What are you wearing for St. Patrick's Day 🍀 ·

Probably this one.

Little Diffraction Gratings!

I love how the grooves in the dial markers on this style of Grand Seiko watch act as diffraction gratings, splitting the colors of sunlight apart. You...

Classy Irish Green on the Left, the Joker on the Right

If the Joker cared about his fitness levels. :-) I do love my new purple strap for the Garmin. I didn't want to swap it for green.
