ate at Birds of a Feather this past Thursday, wore my Seiko and no problems to speak of. Food is delicious

Wore the Tudor to the beach this past week. Half an hour before stepping on this thing in 4ft of water I said "I've never found anything cool at the beach...."

Any opinions here on Nezumi watches?
I like the look of this diver, and the GMT is pretty sharp as well.

The only watch I have these days (beyond a Suunto) is a blue Triwa plastic divers watch, and I wouldn’t mind something slightly more upscale.

Don't know anything about Nezumi. The pictures all look like renders tho, which isn't a great sign.

Anyone here interested in a largely unused/unworn TC-9 bronze turtle tribute? Seiko guts, brand new Erika's originals strap? I haven't worn it in 6+ months (I just really prefer my Garmin as an everyday for all the fitness tracking).

As cool as it is, I'm in an "if I dont use it, simplify" mentality right now. $200 shipped to lower 48 for a 'Salonista? Includes optional bezel, original case and black strap. Can link/send more pics but it's all natural patina (no artificial aging) and crystal looks to be in really nice shape (no obvious scratches that I can see).

Long story short, the Bulova (a hand me down from my grandpa, it's a 1973 Sea King, hand wind movement, gold plated case) is now running nicely (so it seems at least....). Had to open it back up after getting it back from servicing to get the movement fixed in the movement holder, but now it's good. Fun little piece. Never thought I'd like a gold watch...but....

FYI this is my lightest watch, it's 42g on this leather strap, it's even lighter than an all-resin G-Shock. Significantly lighter than the $55,000 Omega 'ultralight' AquaTerra.

Good catch- thx for the heads-up.

hand wind movement

Lovely looking watch. I inherited this watch when my grandfather died in 1985 and still wear it occasionally. The crown recently broke though, not a bad run at like 70 years or so, and I need to get that repaired. Anyway, manual wind watches are probably my favorite type of timepiece. Really love getting up in the morning and hearing that winding sound. Something very pleasing about it.

This REDUX SCOUT digital module just arrived yesterday. I picked it up from another Kickstarter campaign backer that bought a couple watches from the campaign and just wasn't interested in keeping this one. I actually ordered the VALOR and never wore it as I ended up getting a Maratac Titanium Pilot Automatic while waiting the 2+ years to get the VALOR. Will most likely sell the VALOR and the Maratac as I have two Maratac Titanium Pilot Quartz watches I really dig. Anyway, the SCOUT is tiny! Just 28mm. It's going on a Silverfoot velcro strap, which is pretty beefy (well, it is on my teeny wrist) and will look great.

Hip to be square around here, apparently. Just arrived after a couple month pre-order wait, Trafford Crossroads in the peach colorway. I dig it!
