The (Less intimidating) Watch Thread

[IrishHeart]

@Mizmazzle I’m currently wearing the same watch on a brown leather strap. It’s a great everyday watch.

[Mizmazzle]

@IrishHeart oh nice man!! Yeah I def wear this one the most. Work, hiking, fishing, going out. Love it. Like to see a shot of yours on the brown strap…

[IrishHeart]

@Mizmazzle I’m hoping this works, but if you’ve read my earlier posts, I’m not overly confident….

[IrishHeart]

So It worked! Just have to take better photos in a better light!

[IrishHeart]

@ARNC your advice was spot on. Thanks again

[ARNC]

@IrishHeart you’re welcome. Glad you got it to work!

Outstanding gentlemen…guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.

[IrishHeart]

@goosehd haha, so it seems!

[Mizmazzle]

@IrishHeart nice man!!! This is going to revolutionize your posting game!!

[IrishHeart]

@Mizmazzle haha, be careful what you wish for!

I was looking at Orients last night. They seem high quality low cost. Any thoughts?

[Mizmazzle]

I’ve heard great things about Orient. My buddy Josh @Memphisakers wears them almost exclusively.

[Matt]

These are the two I’m considering atm…

And this one…

Not shure what watch threat to put this in, but since you do not have to sell a kidney or one of your children to get one I guess this is the appropriate one.

Seiko SPB 257J1 "Captain Willard" special edition.

The SPB 237J1 Version is allready on the way to me as well.

@Cole Goes with that shirt well. I love a turtle, but man that case is big. I don't exactly have dainty wrists and they're still a bit wide for me. I really wanted the JDM anthracite bezel one but they went extinct before I could pull the trigger.

[Cole]

@WhiskeySandwich It looks bigger on that picture then it is in reality. I've got a 7" wrist and it is just fine and wears very comfortable as a bonus. But the design is realy a hit or miss. You either like it or not and it is definetly a lot less versatile then my Omega Seamaster.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Cole dang, it looks good on you and my wrists are like closer to 7.3 or something. I don't think it looks big in your pic, it looks good. I tried one on someplace after looking at a million pictures and thought it felt huge on there. Maybe its just because I'm used to 40-42mm cases.

[Mizmazzle]

@IrishHeart yeah man!! Looks great on the brown leather!! Mine came on a bracelet when new and I can’t even imagine it that way now. But it’s such a classic watch it would look great on literally anything.

[IrishHeart]

@Mizmazzle I think you made a great choice to change the strap. I just think it looks better with a leather strap.
