Oh. My. God...

This thing is incredible. Gears upon gears upon gears upon gears.

Check out the Harry Winston Opus Watch videos in the suggestions box, too. Truly amazing.
No kidding on amazing. Can only imagine how much that one cost. Talk about making special tooling!

Found my old watch I used to wear:


Here is a bad pic of the new Redline that just came in:

Happy with the size and quality so far, and it has kept perfect time for several days.

I had a fossil once, the band came apart but i wore the heck out of it to work and the like.

The redline looks pretty nice

If I have spare $ when we get home I'll order another

Default Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

I snagged a couple super cheap chinese watches just to check out.
Reviews say the Soki is not good and doesn't even have an o-ring or seal.
The Darch is a small face but better made than the Soki.
If the Darch isn't too small for my wrist I may buy a few different colors.

I love the look of the blue face Invicta. Unfortunately I have wrists that rival a single spaghetti noodle in size.

Thanks to the USPS it didn't arrive until today. I'll post pics in a little over a week (give or take). It is pretty small. I don't have that large of wrists or hands, so it doesn't look bad. It'd look better if I lost some weight.

My wife thinks the watch looks about the right size.

It's comfy, that's for sure. I generally don't like wearing watches.

Shop NBC has some really good deals if you watch. I want to buy so bad but I am on a freeze until Christmas when Santa might bring me a new one.
