1WC...thoughts on week two

Week two is done, and it's still smooth sailing.  This week wasn't as eventful, other than a quick jungle safari and a little manual labor.  The Oris takes what I throw at it without complaint, which is something I appreciate in a watch.  I also very much appreciate the way this watch can look so different in different conditions.  I get why some people don't like bronze, but I'm really liking this being a "living" metal...it changes constantly.  Some see that as deteriorating, but I'm pretty sure this watch will look just fine long after I'm gone.

At this point, the only potential issue I see cropping up over the next 14 days is that I might forget to post at some point.  Other than that, I don't see having any problems keeping this watch on my wrist.

Then I’m glad you’re not in it😂.  I used to wear a watch for weeks or months, but as my collection has grown, I’ve gotten used to switching daily.

I haven’t worn the same watch for more than a week in about 14 years.  I generally change every day or two.

There are people in the 1WC that only wear one watch.  The rules favour that behaviour.

There's a term for people like that...

This Oris does scare me slightly as a competitor, as it's such a stunner. My hope is that you forget to post one day. 🤞

I guess we need to have a “different watch each day” contest for the other folks.

Lol, it wouldn’t be surprising. A few nights I’ve checked at like 11:45 just in case I’d forgotten to post.

LOL  That would be easy for me.  Unless I go on vacation, then I'm only bringing one watch.

I wonder if it’s possible to buy the bracelet from Oris. I bought this watch a year ago on the leather strap, and now I really wish to try wearing it on the bracelet!

Not that I’m aware of, but that doesn’t mean you can’t. I always get watches on the bracket for that reason. FWIW, the bracelet is very comfortable so I’d get it if you can.
