JesseH Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 There's something about those Shinola watches that makes me angry. Can't stand them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evil03mustang Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I still like my sweet glowy traser. Nothin beats watching the second hand twirl at 3am when you can't sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firepyro515 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 How is the Maratac? I keep looking at them on County Comm, but I haven't really seen any reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboboost Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 It's minimalist and durable, just the right size (46mm) for my larger wrists, looks great with a solid, dark brown leather band (Crown and Buckle), and does get compliments fairly often. The super-LumiNova is a nice touch, but don't expect it last too long in the dark. It does require frequent wear (not really a big deal for me since I daily it), otherwise, expect to wind it to the correct time before putting it on if it's been a full day or two. Overall, very pleased with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Dagwood Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I realize I forgot to post any more of my birthday watch. Here's one. Keeping it for the moment on a C&B black harbor with a brushed pre-v: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v220/billydagwood/IMG_20150217_112650_zpsqzar8igg.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picky1 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Looking to replace the leather strap on my Bulova Precisionist, any suggestions as to a good place to pick up a nice strap for a fair price? Ideally I would love to find something on Amazon as I have a sizable gift card that I am trying to use up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LatentWagen Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Needs more ALT. I like that band, tho. LW's spec. B / YT / IG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil03mustang Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Still digging my Traser. I had to have a band retaining spring pin replaced at a local jeweler, but other than that? It's awesome. Those Rolexes are sweet tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Dagwood Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Needs more ALT. I like that band, tho. Thanks, I like the C&B stuff. Good without being needlessly expensive...mostly. Also, ALT? On my keyboard? Don't worry, the option key (both of them, actually) doubles as alt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickup1 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Looking to buy myself a watch, kind of hoping for input. Looking for a decent semi formal watch. My budget is $150. Case diameter less than 46mm not completely sure though. Thickness... Thinner is better, I think. Band? I don't know... Analog for sure, date, water resistant (want to be able to get it wet and not have to worry about it). I'm going to be in sales over the summer wearing a suit on and off. Definitely open to suggestions. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTris Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Looking to buy myself a watch, kind of hoping for input. Looking for a decent semi formal watch. My budget is $150.

JesseH Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Semi-formal and 48mm do not go together. Semi formal is probably at the max 42mm, and you are going to have to have a larger wrist at that. My Seiko is 40mm...and fits perfectly. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v228/jesstercpa/DSCN0264.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasejase Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 SEMI FORMAL is a bit subjective I guess.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickup1 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I did a little research. 'Gasp' and I think I said too big for the diameter. The watch I have is a 46mm and its a bit larger than I'm looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseH Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 So...again. probably looking at 42mm max. What style are you looking for? Semi formal is a bit hard to peg down. Something like this? or this? http://orientwatchusa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/DSC2449-Copy.jpg or this? http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0243/0993/products/s_sarb033h_1024x1024.jpeg?v=1372736278 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTris Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Why are we using Seiko and formal in the same sentence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickup1 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I like round cases better. Silver or stainless... And leather or metal band. Marks rather than numbers. And I like a little color. Not much though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseH Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Why are we using Seiko and formal in the same sentence? Seriously? Seiko makes some very nice formal watches. He mentioned his budget was $150. Kinda limits the brands. Can't get a Patek or Rolex for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
