Fun Watch

[Matt]

Agreed.

@MQR That's super cool, love the colours of the dial

[Matt]

Another Hodinkee model. The face is actually a very soft grey that is really nice and the font of the numbers is neat. Got this and the green Hodinkee one for a combo deal that was too good to pass up…

[Matt]

Here’s the green with a blue California dial, pink accents and lime green hands. I’m already looking at my next one of these. Love them so much.

@Matt what's amazing about the Sistem 51 is that it is the first and only mechanical watch completely manufactured with an automated production (no human hand needed!)

[Matt]

I love everything about them. I like that the inside is hermetically sealed as well so even though it may not be serviceable there shouldn’t be much need for it. And all the pieces are held together with just the center pin.

very cool Casio I saw in an old watch shop in Harajuku

[Giles]

For USD33, I'd have bought it

A little Swatch love today with this 90’s Scuba 200 model…

There's always the time in the year when I don't want to wear anything other than the GOAT:

Timex today

@RobeOfTheMagi haha God Tier! Ive got a few F91W and love em. SO cheap too

[jiminstitches]

I picked up a few Sugess mechanical chronographs, These were only £150 each and I’m amazed at the quality. Realistically I’m not gonna get these serviced as it will cost more than the watch. Any one got any of these?

For some reason my inner voice read that in a thick Scottish accent .

@AdamJ I got a very similar one for my wife years ago! And if we’re talking Sostem51, here’s one she got for me for my birthday. I love the fun dial and the fact it’s all made by a robot.

[Matt]

Nice!

Vietnam era Hamilton Khaki with fat logo and radium dial. A lot of wabi sabi but a lovely little watch.

[long_john86]

@jiminstitches very nice selection! Is the bottom watch the one that gets rave reviews online for its cost/value ratio?

[jiminstitches]

@long_john86 yes that’s the one, it’s a field watch from the 60s, it also came with 2 additional leather straps and a stainless band, crazy value!
