Watches - another OCD problem

@Giles said in Watches - another OCD problem:
Yeah, now that is the one I want....
I found a good deal on one in St Maarten and almost had the missus on board but in the end was a no go
-
Ha! @Anesthetist We honeymooned there and I recall having very similar conversations in jewelry stores with Katie. 15 years later and much better off we still have the same conversations.

Traded my Black Bay for a Ranger. Love it.
I never could dig the ‘rivets’ on the BB bracelet and the rose gold didn’t grow on me like I thought it would. Also coveting a 14060 Sub at some point down the line so I felt ok getting rid of my dive watch.
Really drawn to the 60s look of the Ranger. It’s weightier than the BB and most importantly has the T-Fit clasp!
-
That is a lovely watch--and I am with you on the rivets. Non-functional affectations bother me more than they should.
-
Yeah man, solid choice there. If I didnt have its brother I’d be in the market for one myself.

Dead sexy @Crease ; jubilee bracelet and fluted bezel go together like Oyster bracelet and smooth bezel IMO and that dial is perfect.

I have no idea how I didn't find this thread earlier... In addition to my IH addiction watches are a real problem....
I started off with a JLC Home time, which I loved, especially as I didn't want my first watch to be a Rolex, which I felt I'd be judged for... But quickly I realized it was a little to dressy for my jeans and t-shirt lifestyle.

And in the end, two years after buying the first watch, I sold the previous two and bit the bullet and went for the Rolex. I've been enjoying the Explorer 1 for two years now and have never regretted it. The 36mm size fits my wrist perfectly and most people don't seem to notice I'm wearing a Rolex so I don't feel like I'm getting judged. It's my everyday wear.
