      Joined the Hamilton family with this one.

      Congrats! I’ve been eyeing these for years and still haven’t taken the plunge. Yours is a lovely colourway and looks great on the wrist.

            Maybe the most practical, while still good-looking, watch I've ever owned:  the Casio GMW B5000 (with a lovely side of herringbone):

                      They don't get as much Love as they deserve in my opinion but I'm rocking the Shinola Duck Watch. Great quality and looks fantastic!

                        @ackoasis that's lovely!  Shinola watches are really underrated, IMO.

                        I work for a sister company of Shinola, so I get a healthy discount on their watches.  Two years back, I picked up the Lake Superior Monster automatic.  It's a beautiful and hefty watch!  I only really use it for fancy occassions now that I'm using the G-Shock GMW B5000 as my daily driver.

                          I'm liking the dial on the new Oris Aquis Upcycle. It's made from plastics recovered from the ocean.

                            Finally got to whet my watch whistle after a few years of rampant net based research. I was never interested in blowing huge sums and was fairly sure I wanted a Hamilton field watch for a number of years.

                            Recently though, I’ve been drawn towards Seiko and picked up this steel automatic at a huge discount (probably partially due to the disgusting silicon strap with faux leather inlay it originally came on). I took the discount and spent it on one of the cordovan Pinion straps left in the Outlet. Quite pleased with the result.

                                I have a big ugly Seiko diver with a shrouded bezel. They’re terrific watches and a great value across the range and including Grand Seiko.

                                These days I always wear a Garmin. I miss watches.

                                Think it, be it.

                                  Thanks gents. Of course, the story has a twist. I fixed the watch just before xmas and ordered the strap which didn’t get to me until new year. In the meantime Hot Ingrid had been checking my browser history and had bought me this for xmas [emoji38]

                                  So she doesn’t know about the first watch yet [emoji1783]

                                        Nice watches @neph93. I wonder what would have happened if Hot Ingrid had seen Patek in your browser history… 😃

                                        And I'm sure that the Hamilton Field Watch is coming eventually.

                                          It's always good to have a choice. Assuming you survive the inevitable moment when you have to come clean, I'm sure you will enjoy both.

                                            I wpuld too, but unfortunately the lugs on the land Turtle are 18mm and the strap is 20mm.

                                            Thanks folks! I’m happy to have gotten into the game.
