I own 7 or 8 Casios, but I never had a Royale until this arrived yesterday. Also on the way are a 316L case (with sapphire crystal) in the same color...

Anyone own a Detroit Mint?

I’ve been interested in a panda chrono for a while, but until now I’d yet to see one that grabs me by my cheeks and says “kiss me you fool” when I loo...

Scratching the itch with a new band.

Over the last week or so, I’d been eyeing a couple of 38mm black dial watches on black leather straps. It felt gluttonous given that I’ve already boug...

What people do with their own money is their business, and it’s not my place to say they should or shouldn’t spend X amount on a watch.

As far as my own collecting goes, I cannot justify spending more than $1k on a watch. Even then, it’s going to take a lot to get me to consider one that’s over $500. I don’t see the point when you can easily get good specs and great looks without uselessly spending money that could go somewhere more useful. If I’m tempted to spend more than $500, it’s usually only because I like the looks a watch has. That feels like a silly reason to spend more money since I know I can find one I like just as much at a lower price point.

Of course, I’m also drooling over the Hamilton Murph these days and fully plan to buy one, and it’s only because I like the looks. So what the hell do I know.

I love that model G-Shock, especially the blue variant.

Do I spy a Pogue in there?

commented on Which RZE Ascentus GMT color way? ·

The white and yellow are both fantastic, and I’d be happy to have either. I think the yellow just barely nudges out the white, though.

commented on Can anyone tell me something about this watch? ·

It looks like a medic watch based on the fact that it has a pulsometer. Mido is a good brand, and The Multifort line has been around since before WWII, but yours obviously doesn’t look as old as that. Here’s some history from the Mido website.

Man, I feel cooler and I’m just looking at a picture of it. Where did you get that bund?

Do you want a watch you’d never wear?

I don’t think I’d ever actually wear this watch. It’s a rude dude, though, and I want it just so I can take it out of the watch box and stare at it fr...

Why all the hate for Fossil?

I know that Fossil is widely hated in the watch enthusiast community. For the life of me, I don’t know why. It doesn’t add up. For the money, the buil...

New here

Hi WatchCrunch! I thought I’d share my newest acquisition for my first watch shot. This is my Dan Henry 1970, and I’m chuffed to bits about it.
