      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:

            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.

                  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.
