The SNXJ92j DJ … a pimp’s watch??😅

My girlfriend -yes, definitely not imaginary nor from Canada- thinks this two tone beauty of Seiko5 goodness looks like something a man of questionabl...

Still not sure if it’s the best idea but I did it 💸

It’s totally irresponsible … “mad” one might say -badum tss- … heck, I am not even sure if this thing is actually wearable. But it’s fun.

Damn… what do I do now?

Didn’t expect to have a lucky draw for this one. And I wanted to sell a piece or two rather than buy a new one. But this M.A.D.1 in green looks really...

It’s a great watch. But prices for this one went a little crazy since these models were discontinued around 2010.

A 150$ watch now goes for around 400$. But it’s still one of the best and cheapest alternatives to a datejust with fluted bezel.

Yeah that’s a great perspective, pal 😁

She started liking to wear a watch because of me but isn’t that much into the hobby.

I imagine a watch enthusiast as gf would be harder to handle than most of us imagine, so we should be careful what we wish for 😂

Thanks! I love it, too.

It didn’t quite run within COSC standards (-9s/d) and it’s power reserve was around 60 hours instead of 72.

They replaced the mainspring and some other small parts and then it ran perfectly for 5 years straight until the day I sold it.

My Navitimer 01 had to be sent to Switzerland just over a month of wearing it. It was all covered by its warranty but it bothered me nonetheless.

With mechanical products it’s a gamble sometimes. Some run for decades without service, some don’t.

Good luck 🍀

Without a doubt my favorite, most worn watch since I got it in May last year. It’s not exactly a “GADA” watch but a watch for any occasion. Especially with my grey nubuk strap from delugs. Haven’t changed the strap back to the black shell cordovan strap with which it came since I got it.

This is the watch that fits my wrist absolutely perfectly and hits all the right marks for me.

I want to keep this one until the day I die.

I hope it will be able to tell a lot of stories someday.
