Who says watch winders cause damage?

I’ve kept my double winder rotating in one direction for months, and it hasn’t damaged either of my most prized luxury pieces. 🧐

Another pin and collar hate post.

I know when I’m beat, and I’m not going to try to put this abomination back together. But I’m also injured and can’t get to a jeweler for weeks. So I...

That’s the neat part: they don’t! For most tasks in general.

My sausage fingers. 😑

commented on San Martin beats Rolex?! What? ·

I think it ultimately comes down to what can get to you first: an AliExpress order or a Rolex waitlist. 🙃

commented on Watch Collecting Lessons from an Orangutan ·

I’m not a car guy so when I see Jeremy Clarkson’s name pop up, the only things I immediately think about are reaction memes, and the apology the BBC had to issue over Top Gear’s lazy jokes about Mexico and Mexicans.

A joke about another ethnicity in a post referencing Clarkson just about had me distracted-scrolling till I saw a white G-Shock.

commented on Lorier... what gives? ·

I live in NYC too and had no idea about them. Every time I see the name mentioned here, I subconsciously think of L'Oreal and move on. 😅

commented on Mechanical or quartz ·

Digital watches aside, I have about an equal split between quartz and automatic.

I love being able to just put on my Casio Duro and head out. But I also love my automatics constantly charging. And I also love my only mechanical so far, a Red Star from LI Watches.

They all have different experiences when I put one on every morning, and that’s half the fun for me.

commented on Do we really need lume? ·

When I wake up in the middle of the night, I often find myself using my phone's flashlight to check the time on my watch.

I wish I was joking.
