There are some really cool Vostok watches. I don’t want to tie too much in a watch myself. I prefer to have a few and rotate. No matter if I spent £1k or £5k, it would be worn a day or 2 then swapped. Then rotated , 2 weeks or a month on, wear again for a day or so. So pointless for me, would rather have a few watches given the choice.
I like my g shocks, lots of choices, easy to customise with bezels and straps(make your own). Pretty tough and light weight, plus I like the change from analogue with digital
some days. I will always like my autos though , so always have a few of those in my little family.
Nearly bit a few times on a couple of steinharts, the titanium and a pilot style. Instead I ended up with an oris titanium and a CW titanium . So steinhart is still on the list, again though, no point in spending a lot when it will be rotated.
I probably need a little clear out, I have around 10 G shocks and 10 metal watches(some auto some quartz). But as with flashlights, regardless of use, I struggle letting them go.
Still I am having fun and enjoying the ride, regardless if it’s a $15 vintage Casio or a $1000+ oris.
I dont update too often as i swap watches more than my underwear!!! Some days i can swap 3 or 4 times, so would get too much posting all the time. But whilst i am here, i swapped to the 009 yesterday
Very nice citizen G0OSE, for the money a very good watch IMHO
Thank you junkiexl, i admit one of mine to. After all this time, i love the 009 and 007. Lots of mod options, ISO rated, yes not best of anything(movement/strap etc). But as a package, i think a great watch.
Man I’d love a Christopher Ward with the old logo and placement and new handset/dial. Can’t get over the full name at the 9 o’clock position on the new ones.
Keep an eye on a so called auction site. If UK and wont ship, pm me and i can! There is always a few on there, some are a little more hard to find. My 1 i have only ever seen 1 of them. There are 2 made, the other is very dark in design.
