    Nice Pepsi @RobeOfTheMagi

    I reinstated mine as a travel watch with a strap to make it look less flash 🙂

      @Bridger Old SKX Models are just lovely.

      This mod is what got me interested in mechanical watches:

        Very cool @RobeOfTheMagi

        End of an era, I fear

          New Brew Metric Star…

          Do you still have this and how have you liked it after having it for a minute? Been looking at the metric star and the metric retro dial. Saw yours and loved the look of it. Thank you for any insight

            @ZackB I love these watches. I have 4 of them currently and I’m certain I’ll get more.

              @Matt awesome man, all I needed to know. Been in the market and your metric star caught my eye. Thank you

                A new automatic metric just dropped this week. Def worth a look.

                  The old seikos in here inspired me to upload my favorite watch, ever. I picked this up a few years ago when my ancient turtle prove unsalvageble, and haven’t worn any other watch, since. Never had a citizen, before, but it’s been crazy reliable, and who knows how long it’s been kicking’

                  The monocoque case is crazy comfortable.

                    It will probably never stop kickin' @sabergirl

                        I'm thinking about getting a Casio DW-6900U-1. It's one of the coolest G-Shocks, in my opinion. However, I do not really need one, since I have the predecessor of the GW-M5610U-1. Which is arguably the better watch.

                          Okay, here it is: DW-6900U. Only very little has changed from the '90s version.

                            This watch shouldn’t be $2k. I wish it wasn’t priced ridiculously.

                                Excellent. I’ll bet you could get ante bezel for that if you wanted.

                                  Interesting thought @Matt. I haven't worn it for decades. It really needs a happy home.

                                      @Matt Sweet! I got to check out their line up at a watch show in Austin last Fall. Very cool stuff!

                                        That’s awesome. I learned about them just before coming back to Baltimore and once I got back I had to have one. I feel very fortunate to have found a gmt.
