Wrist watches. Post pics, if you EDC one!

I feel with you. I just never had an automatic and at this price, why not try.

And as long as we have to turn the crown twice a year for this stupid DST I don’t mind.
My alarm clock by the way is an old Nokia N8. Without a GSM card it’s gains like a minute or two per month.

As long as my watch is more accurate everything’s fine with me :wink:

Just got this, my first Seiko.

starry!

These are some cool watches. Am I the only one who thinks they’d look better without the day/date complication?

The funny thing is how often I have to check my watch to remind me of the date. I work nights and it has become a most helpful feature. I do agree that the aesthetic is nicer without it.

This is the look in lume without the date.

This Great Wave is probably my favorite, too bad it sold quick.

Lucius Atelier?

Yes, a recent discovery. I had no idea people were modding their Seikos.

Picked up a new solar beater, BN0100-51E:

Came on a bracelet that has a ratcheting dive extension which I was really excited for, but… it kinda sucks :weary:
No micro adjusts, and the ratchet doesn’t substitute for them like the many Glide-lock style adjustments now available do. At least it had half-links.

Very happy for the price I paid compared to the Seiko solar divers which I was looking at, but are larger than I’d want to wear and significantly more expensive.

Very nice! Where did you order it from?

eBay, this model was mostly sold in Europe AFAIK and isn’t produced anymore. Was listed as a refurb from a large watch seller and came in mint condition.

it is pretty cool, to have dive styling, with rotating bezel for timing, plus solar, date, and quartz

there is one for sale right now on watchuseek.com,. i think
at least it looks the same
sounds like the guy wants 150 or so

Is it a Citizen or Seiko?

yes
same as the one from post 1186

… New Helm Komodo …

I found it, it’s a nice nighthawk.

I’ve considered getting an orange watch. I like the monster versions.

IDK if that would be the same watch. The “Excalibur” as it’s called is in the Promaster line.

I love Helm’s styling but desperately want to see something slimmer from them. The Vanuatu dial is fantastic, and not as derivative of Sinn as some make it out to be IMO (if anything Sinn is using Doxa design language). Same tooly/retro-future feel as a couple that Dagaz offers.
