Wrist watches. Post pics, if you EDC one!

I’m with you pal. Being retired, it’s embarrassing that I forget what day it is at times, and what I had for breakfast yesterday. I hang my head in shame……lol!

BTW, how many Seiko’s do you own? I’ve got 7. 6 auto’s and 1 quartz.

Just a couple, a citizen, some rotary’s and casio g shock for now. Looking or pondering another g shock(mud) if i can spend my pennies before the kids do!.

You guys are making me want to buy another Seiko.

I need another watch like I need another flashlight. :slight_smile:

I need a few extra days. How many watches can l send over for you to do this for me. I’m happy to pay a small fee as well. :slight_smile:

:stuck_out_tongue: all of them, just be careful though as i may set the date to 1983……………35yrs will soon pass to get them back :wink:

Sunday tough day, always a tough day………….work tomorrow lol

Hi Paul,

I went for her elder sister, the Amazfit Pace. :slight_smile: I’m also quite happy with it (ceramic bezel & lugs, always on display, built in GPS & WIFI, syncing with Strava).

The Thread that would not Die!!

Are Stuhrling quartz watches decent enough? Someone posted one of their automatics earlier in this thread.

I’m looking for an inexpensive (sub $100) diver-style watch with SS bracelet that does not require winding. The reviews seem mixed when it comes to their quality.

If you’re looking for accuracy, stay away from automatics or manual wind. I have several. The best one gains 5 seconds a day. The worst is over 30 seconds a day. My Seiko Tuna Quartz, and even my cheap Timex’s are within a few seconds a month. Just a thought…

Yeah, I am not looking for automatics. I already have a few of them. I don’t wear a watch very often, so every time I do decide to wear one, I end up having to set the time on it.

That’s why I’m looking for a quartz watch this time that I can just grab from the shelf and know it won’t require time setting. That’s why I was asking about Sturhling quartz watches. Just not sure it’s worth the $90 they are asking for it…

I’d love to help you Pete, but I’m not familiar with that brand. Looks nice though.

re stuhrling - i would pass and get something like a casio marlin or a seiko 5 quartz ....any quartz watch will be very accurate but still the stuhrling is going to have so-so innards and the money mostly going to looks or advertising.. wle

great watch

Nice Watch. I think I might order one

Thanks. I need something with an SS band. I guess I could buy one separately and swap it out. I also forgot to mention I need something on the smaller side - 42mm max.

But you got me on the right track. I think this one might work:

The MDV106 fits MUCH smaller than its diameter suggests because the lug to lug length is so short. I have 6.5 inch wrists and it doesn’t look too large at all.

For most watches in this price range you will be much happier buying a stainless bracelet separately. The ones included aren’t a bad value, but you’ll probably want to swap it out eventually anyway unless it already actually has screws for size adjustment, forged clasps, etc.

That one you linked looks pretty good too but just consider the 50m water resist. Thats “splash some water on it while washing my hands” but not much more without risk. Just something to consider depending if this is more dressy/professional vs everyday beater.

Trusty Gen 2 Seiko Orange Monster …

Nice Monster! I have the black faced 2nd gen. I love it.

I wore my Rolex Submariner two-tone with the amazing deep blue dial and bezel for 20 years. After I retired a passed it on to my son and now wear the Luminox Men’s 3051 EVO Navy SEAL, it has got the best easy to read tritium dial, just an amazing watch for the money.

Alpinist was not the ticket so…

I bought a second one of the same kind :smiley:
Older has a bit wear on the bracelet but otherwise works fine, not going to get rid of it either.

Pic in link, I recall it was a bit large:
