I Bought a New Watch

[marmal4de]

I needed a new watch for work, my shitty Timex broke and my job sucks without the ability to tell time at a glance.

Check it out!

I love the industrial 'git 'er done' look the movement has.

nice

I have always liked Seiko watches, That is a fine one there.

 

[markw4mms]

Very nice!

I always loved exhibition case backs where you can see the gears move, its too bad you don't get to see it when you're wearing the watch.

 

[mp31guitar]

Cool. I like that you can see the innerd's.

 

[oldmaus]

Very nice watch! I like it a lot!

 

[ssjones]

Good choice, those automatic Seiko's are nice. I have a quarts stainless Seiko divers watch that is 20 years old and I wear it regularly - yours should last even longer!

:laughat: It's baccy time. nice looking.

Cool watch! Besides pipes, my current interest is watchmaking. I've started collecting antique pocket watches. My goal is to learn watch cleaning and repair, and build a clock.

 

[pipetrucker]

cool. I could never stand a watch on my arm, I prefer a pocket watch

I've had my Seiko since 1972 and its still working great. Wish I could say that about my Breitling.

 

[sjpipesmoker]

Nice!! I love watches!!! Just like pipes there are so many different styles to suit just about anyone

 

[pstlpkr]

I have several Seiko watches.

I love them all.

Good Git!

Thanks for all the compliments, I've always liked Seiko watches, I had a kinetic chrono when I was a teenager. Super surprising that I found an automatic in my work watch price range! My only complaint is that the movement is non hacking.

Hey, Marm....what time is it?

Very nice. I've had two Seiko's over the past 15 years. Unfortunately, neither survived my "adventures" over seas. Not a knock on their product. There's very few watches in the world that survive explosions.

PANERAI! For ten g's it better be explosion proof. I'm hoping this Seiko is 'smacking against steel racking and doorframes' proof!

I, like Mason, can't stand having a watch on my wrist!
Congrats on the watch though!

 

[marmal4de]

I hate things around my wrists too, but like I said, the alternative is my job being at least 150% worse. I've actually started to get used to it, and only have tiny freak outs about it.
