What’s your Root Beer 🍺 of choice?

Been craving a root beer ever since I got this watch. Root beer floats for Thanksgiving this year.

A&W. I normally don't like it that much but it's so nice in those frosted mugs.

Very nice Q

I’d love to have a Rolex 16713 one day, but the odds of finding one that’s taken care of at an affordable price is slim. A man can dream though 🍻

We used to have an A&W nearby and they had root beer on tap all day. It was delicious.

I almost bought that Timex just last night!!!

I’m a huge fan. Looking at grabbing a two tone strapcode jubilee. Waiting to see if they have any Black Friday deals.

Where’d you get the build from? Do they have an option for the older model or a yellow gold version? @Ichibunz

Check out Aliexpress tons of parts you can choose from!!

Cheers mate 🍻

Can’t beat 16753 with that jangly jubilee. I would probably be saving and hunting for one if I didn’t have a 90’s Bluesy. Quickset date is a nice.

Mood. Looks like a fun watch.

I’ll try to get one when prices go down.

Rootbeer, or a black and tan. I'll take both. 🍻

I like it. Does it keep good time? Overall good watch?

I was super fortunate to get it in like new condition. A physician bought it new in the 70's when he graduated from medical school but he ended up just putting it away in the original box until he sold it last year to another physician who is a friend of mine who kept it unworn until he sold it to me.

It's the best condition example I've ever seen and runs about 8 seconds fast per day. One of my favorite vintage Seiko chronographs.

That’s so cool and that really is fortunate. It’s a beauty and I’d rock the hell out of that watch. Congrats! 🍻

Muchas gracias. Igualmente!

Tried a root beer (drink) at a USAF show when I was a kid, really liked it. Unfortunately I live in rural Fenland so I've never seen it again 😢

Root beer tones?

If you ever decide to sell it, please think of me.

Aw man, that’s so sad. I’m sorry. Where do you live?

Fenland, UK. Near Cambridge. Yeah, it's a bummer 😔

·

Wow...Sorry I missed this, but I'm not up for paying 2+ x the original price - for a Timex Q on eBay. Thanks!

·

Na, pass I stick with just beer.😅

But the watch is awesome.

Seconde x seconde, he's done quite a few collaborations with numerous brands. Fun take on watches.

It’s been years since I lived where this was distributed but it was damn good. Their orange cream soda was decadent as well. As for watches I’m not sure….. I love that color pattern but haven’t explored the possibilities.
