I was planning on posting in the mail thread, but might as well necro the relevant thread.
I lost my beater F91W, so I decided to go for a major upgrade to the Gshock 5610. I don’t think I’ve owned a proper Gshock before; I had 4 or 5 Casios growing up, starting with an F91W. This thing feels like a tank.
Citizen EcoDrive Titanium. Love the clean, simple style. My only watch. Got it on a deep discount buying from a UK based store when the pound was super weak relative to the dollar.
Also in the Apple Watch club. I had a lot of watches but I always went back to the Apple Watch I got on eBay in 2016, so I sold the rest. It died this year so I upgraded to the Ultra. I have a case because I’m a danger to myself and others. Mostly the steel doors and concrete at work is what I’m mashing into all the time. I remove it while throwing though.
I had both a Mondaine and Jeff’s Item watch in two different colors, and I’ve gotten more compliments on Jeff’s watches than nearly all my other watches combined.
Really like my Mondaine watch, but the leather band, beautiful as it was, was extremely uncomfortable, and I sold the watch.
I want to buy another Mondaine someday though. Really dig the minimalist aesthetic with a little splash of fun.
