I change watches like three times a day, I don’t think I’m built for a 1 watch collection

My biggest regret was buying my 2nd watch. My first watch was an Oris Aquis, I owned it maybe 5-6 years and was super content with it being a 1 watch collection. Then COVID happened, I caught it and had the 14 day quarantine in my basement. During that quarantine I started watching The Urban Gentry and Bark & Jack on YouTube. By the end of the 2 weeks, I had bought 2 new watches (SKX off eBay & Tag Heuer AquaRacer) - the rest is history. I got over COVID, but not the real disease of dive watch addiction.

I love that strap, where is it from? Looks great!

commented on Hodinkee.. worst customer service ever!!! ·

I have ordered from them twice, both experiences I would consider as okay. I paid expedited shipping and that may have helped things move along, the shipping was next day air, but it look 2-3 days for it to ship. So realistically had it in hand within 4 days. Again, not the end of the world for me. When I pay Next Day Air from Jomashop, I received my watch the next day. When I pay Next Day Air from Teddy Baldassare, I received my watch in 2 days.

I love the look of chronographs on everyone else’s wrists, but not my own. I’ve bought many and just never connected with any of them.

I like the Swiss movement, 500m water resistance, ceramic bezel, and bezel markings on this model (U1S-Pd5). This one was also almost triple the price of the model 1, so an argument could be made for the model 1, I don’t think you can go wrong with Unimatic.

While I’m a bracelet fan, I do think it looks really nice on the leather strap.
