An Oyster bracelet for my 36mm watch
Thoughts on the Smiths Everest, a week into ownership
The one that *almost* got away

Honestly, most watches will look pretty big from this angle. My maximum is 47mm lug-to-lug, and whenever I take wrist shots, my watches look like they're taking up all the space on my wrist, but when viewed in a mirror I see way more real estate.
Have a few in my collection but my Ripley, with all its scrapes and dings from fighting desk aliens, is my favorite.
I wore a Swatch Gent during my five-day trip to Rome last summer. I had just come from Switzerland so I had taken my other Swiss watches there for a homecoming of sorts, but they never left my suitcase while I was in Italy.
I love my Everest but I have to say that part of me thinks that San Martin did the 1016 homage a bit better.
Curious about what you mean by the watch being "course" vs the Smiths -- is this just the crown operation, or are there other qualities that make the watch give off this vibe?
Agree, they do make some good-looking bracelets, but yes, I would prefer fitted end-links. It's surprising how difficult they are to find!
Oof, I don't think I'm brave enough to do (precise) machine work! But I'll keep this in mind as a last resort 😅
