I've worn a watch for as long as I can remember, but I didn't become interested in watches until 2018, when I bought my first decent mechanical watch. Shortly after purchasing it, I joined a local watch enthusiasts group, and have since grown my collection quite considerably.
My focus is on mechanical watches (especially chronographs), but I can also appreciate quartz watches as well.

I don't have any wall clocks, but I do have a couple of desk clocks that I think are kinda interesting.
Modern Retro Clock from Royal Enamel on Etsy
It's available in several colors, and also available as a wall clock. In addition to this style, the seller has several other retro designs.

And then this Jefferson Golden Hour Mystery Clock. Unfortunately this one "works" but is off my hours per day, and needs repair.
