Leather dress watch? uhhh Hamilton Jazzmaster would fit nicely in there!

Enthusiasts arent the guys you need to worry about. We would see a skydweller and want to look at it and give a high five. Its the "oo man, thats a rolex hes wearing!" guy that you need to worry about! :)

I completely understand though. Thats the reason field watches (and other really understated watches) exist. Can be wearing a piece of finely made swiss history without drawing the attention of anyone but the enthusiasts!

Feels like our society has oddly shifted. If there isnt a line outside of the building with guys in tight jeans and $400 sneakers waiting for a limited release so they can resale to real collectors, then its seen as a failure.

Something about that turns me off completely.

Think im getting old!

Used to watch his videos wondering how he lived THAT lifestyle flipping Rolexes. The margins are super thin, would have had to be selling 600 a day!

You may have nailed it! Thick bracelet on a lovely round 37mm case doesnt seem to fit right. To my eye atleast.

rusbro1 commented on Hamilton Field Expedition ·

That needs to be a 37MM in my opinion!

You are right there. Maybe its the Bracelet in the "on wrist" pic. If it was a nato or leather strap, it would bother me less HAHA.

Ole Nit picking SOB.
