Watches - another OCD problem

[Megatron1505]

I have a guilty confession when it comes to watches. Mini bought me a Bapex 4 Christmases ago, and I've always told myself that when it dies I will purchase myself a decent watch…....it has never missed a beat, still keeps perfect time.

What's a Bapex?!
My g-shock is the same….won't give up bless it.

[madmonday]

think it comes down to quality for the price of the item purchased.  then again that is all subjective.  g-shocks are good sh!t.  no idea on the bape watches, but 4 years without missing a second sounds like it was a good investment on the part of the misses.

[bertoni]

Yeah I seriously can't fault my G-Shock…got the G-510D stainless steel version.

Not very refined but takes no shit….

[madmonday]

they aren't that expensive considering the legend of rolex & what you are supposed to be getting for your money.

haven't taken the plunge yet, but here's my current love:

What is it?

[Lucifer]

A  Seiko SNN233 , I was originally pining for another Seiko 5, but they weren't available on amazon, and I had a gift-card on amazon, so.. Got a black zulu strap on it now, looks great!

[alcatraz]

Yeah agreed - looks great

I'm a big fan of the Seiko 5 watches, although the glass isn't the best. Still here's my newest (about 6 months):

And my oldest (about 25 years):

And I've just paid the pre-order deposit on this, which I'm very excited about:

Cheers Seul, it was the first 'proper' watch I owned (I was about 14). It's on the latest of a series of new straps, and still keeps really, really, good time. It's never been serviced either. I'm currently trying to find someone who can replace the hardex face with sapphire crystal, after which I think it will live forever!
