SKX013 on Hadley Roma with quick deployment clasp.
Tend to get a cheapy, change straps to suit, wear it 24/7 for 12 months then onto the next, Seiko Autos have always served me well and handled the abuse.
No manual wind for the 7S26 but is never of the wrist long enough to matter.
Things i require in a watch.
Water resistant and rugged above all else, usually a diver
Plenty of lume
not hard rule but usually under 40mm
quick the remove/ put on.
mostly Autos, but love a quartz too.
Really like the choice of hands, tend not to crack open the cases, but the Hardlex sure sucks up any specks flying around. Did a quick job with an angle grinder and the face is covered in micro lumps and bumps.
might have to get a sapphire crystal. lets hope i can stop at that.
I never thought I’d get a smartwatch, but I did. It’s a Samsung S3 Gear Frontier. I purchased it based on the excellent reviews I’ve watched on youtube. Right now it’s charging, so I can’t give my opinion yet. I purchased it from BestBuy for $299.99
This is the only watch I own. My oldest son and my wife got it for me for fathers day 15 years or so ago. Don’t know if it’s a decent one or, a not so decent one. It’s the only watch I have ever owned or worn. Keeps good time and only needed 1 battery in 15 years.
Sad news about my newly purchased Hamilton mechanical watch. The crown shaft broke by simply winding it. It was most definitely not overwound. I returned it for a replacement or refund. I called my credit card and filed a dispute just in case Watchwearhouse gives me a hard time.
Wish me luck.
todd if its still going strong after 15yrs, its certainly a decent one! Priceless in fact
Liking the smart watch glenn, presume you can pick your display/hands…………very cool. I am still in the old ages i guess, auto’s mainly for me. Just something about them. Hope you get sorted with the Hamilton, sure you will………….damn i would have been gutted.
Love the seiko’s weklund, you certainly have some nice gear, watches, lights and no doubt knives! Maybe a mans worst 3 enemies to his wallet.
Today I have allow yourself this: Luminox SR-71 Blackbird; Bought used (new I couldn’t afford it) but it’s fine, I like it even if it’s a little heavy on the wrist.
My Hamilton Khaki Field Officer Watch is being repaired instead of replaced. watchweahouse.com claims it’s being repaired by their expert Hamilton repair guy. I told them I’m extremely picky as far as any evidence, scratches, accuracy, etc. The guy I spoke to assured me that they are picky as well. They said they will calibrate my watch as well. I was getting about 10 seconds fast a day which is good for a manual winding watch. Maybe they can get it better? I hope so.
