I found my almost every day grail watch

So I've been searching for a every day grail(work watch) since forever. I had a specific dimension and spec in mind. I need it to be small, light, wat...

Me too. I even wrote them an email asking if they are going to be producing a smaller version in the near future. I'm being told they will but no set date. That was about the same time they started the pre-order for this watch. I can't believe it took them 11 months for the delivery.

well, the upfront cost and the upkeep of a watch are cheaper than having a baby. A baby costs around $10 000 - $15 000 depending on insurance and where you live.

If you work at a desk job then the crystal will be fine. Bring it to your local watch repair shop and have them upgrade it to a sapphire. It is worth the upgrade.

commented on Are people hesitant with titanium watches? ·

It is a personal preference thing. I have a full titanium watch and it is super comfortable. The downside is my grade 2 bracelet gets scratched all over. Also, titanium is generally dull and grayish so it doesn't give off this luxury feeling. Most often associate the weight, polished edges, and color of the watch with premium/ luxury. Titanium is very light and dull so therefore it feels cheap.

As I said, it is a personal preference thing.

I own a CW and the open box experience was super weird. I didn't get the WOW factor immediately. I was quite disappointed initially and had a serious thought of returning the watch. The bracelet felt sharp in some areas, and their light catcher case wasn't as glamorous as I anticipated. I got their LE oxygen fume dial and the color was super dull. Everything changed when I took the watch outside and it glistened in the natural sunlight. Immediately, the blue dial seems to have changed its color, and the polished edges are shiny. Heck, the bracelet still feels sharp but I don't mind it.

They have a good return policy so you can return it if you don't like it. There are things I like to see changed but those are just personal preferences. I've been a fan of CW watches ever since. Good luck picking your new watches.

commented on Excuse Me, WatchFinder? “Entry-Level”? ·

Many people would agree that the Rolex Explorer is an entry-level watch. Those same people would agree that said watch is a great everyday beater. I stop caring what people think of my watches and you should too. I've seen a plumber wear an omega seamaster, and I've seen the owner of a Gwagon wearing a Casio.

commented on Orient Bambino; who else still love their Bambino? ·

OMG, so I'm not the only one. I bought a gold/black bambino and it was just too dressy for me. I'm planning to give it away to a co-worker who is also into watches.
