Indeed but it is a hobby you can enjoy everyday, all day. My watches are all funded by my strap sales. My Zelos Bronze Helmsman should be here tomorrow. :tu

I dropped my Armida A7 on the asphalt yesterday. Scratched up the case pretty bad but at least it was one of my less expensive watches. And the sapphire remains perfect.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

My first attempt at a handmade bronze sewn-in buckle for my ammo straps. This is only a prototype.

Harpoon arrived today! Serious chunk!

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

Picked up this GMT II BLNR in May. Perfect to wear daily but works with just about any occasion.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

^^

I like the bezel, is that a current model?

Picked up a Citizen Aqualand for my Florida trip :tu

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

Something completely different for me. A radio controlled Braun. I looked at Casio, but they're all super big and complicated. I can't do a 52mm watch no matter how hard I try. This one is a nice size at 40mm x 10mm and it only does time, date and alarm.

Agree with you on the sizing of watches these days. The trend is going back down in size a little, but it'll be a while before the norm is back to around 40mm.

Neat looking watch.

I like that watch brother:tu

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

Got this a few months ago - Citizen Calibre 8700.
I love this watch. I'm really picky about watches, there are very few (especially very few inexpensive ones) that really do much for me.

They are in Lancaster PA, near the Hamilton factory. It is a grail watch and one you would hand down generations.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

RGM does some nice stuff and is probably the best american made watch or at least the first watch people think of on american watches.
