commented on What is the best mechanical chronograph under 5k? ·

Kurono Chronograph II White, “Shiro”.

Just kidding, that was gone in less than three minutes. Tudor BB Chrono would be the one I’d be looking at

Celine, I was almost certain that you’d go for this one!

I wear my ALS Grand Langematik in platinum when I shoot guns. I daily wear it and never get it wet when I wash my hands. I sweat profusely sometimes and don’t worry about how long the leather strap will last. When I need to replace it, I’ll know that I’ve made good use of it.

commented on Watch nerds unite ·

There’s a watch group at work; we’ve had somewhat regular meetups pre-2020. I’m also part of a private chat group consisting of watch enthusiasts in my area. We just did a meetup the other day. Everyone’s cool and no one’s an asshole. There were watches from Seiko, vintage fliegers, vintage and modern Rolex, ALS, Patek, and some independents. Really fun.

commented on Talk to me about dress watches ·

I work an office job and am currently working remotely. In the office, I’d wear “smart casual” or business casual attire. I love dress watches, and the following would be my choices:

Nomos Orion 33 White

Cartier Tank Must SolarBeat

JLC Master Ultra Thin Moon 36mm

And, of course: A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia or Saxonia Thin

As for myself, I rock an A. Lange & Söhne Grand Langematik in platinum, which features an “outsize date”, small seconds, and micro rotor (or rather, “three-quarter rotor”).

commented on Beaters and tools ·

The Cartier Tank Must SolarBeat is a beater, as well as any watch that has a jumping seconds complication, for that matter.

And any watch that has a heart rate monitor built into it is a beatee.

commented on Gold watches ·

Gold is less ostentatious than stainless steel; change my mind😤

But seriously, it’s underrated and you’re just buying and wearing what you like. I want to add a YG piece on a bracelet to my collection.
