Poor man's watch thread

[Michigan Planner]

There is this one watch i keep going back to look at. it's a Seiko Kinetic Scuba Titanium.
it's a Rolex defeator in my eyes. but i still walk past. torn.

I enjoy mine. I should really wear it more often…

‘One watch’ has much appeal in a world of ‘wrist time’ ‘watch winders’ and so on.

It is easy to read. It is quartz so it will be accurate and you will not get involved in expensive servicing issues either.

I just picked this up from being serviced.

I actually need another case but that would give my wife grounds for a divorce.....

reminds me of a Milsub crossed with an explorer.

My goal of thinning my collection in 2020 is off to a bad start. It's only January 3rd and I've already got two more watches inbound!

I need to figure out some pieces from my collection to sell but I'm usually too lazy to get some good photos.

Keep at it man.
Digging through the watch boxes has become an obsession.

You may not appreciate it now, but you will treasure it down the road. For example when you’re older and your father is gone and would give anything in the world to be able to speak to him one more time.

MKII LRRP today. Price-wise, this one is probably on the edge of what’s acceptable here in the PMWC, but I enjoy posting here much more than the other watch thread.

I do appreciate it for the reason you list it's a purely aesthetic issue i have! Speaking of i should see my parents this weekend

^^ I like that. Also agree on enjoying posting here so much more. I picked up an Oris Divers 65 this week that I am really enjoying, but have not posted any pictures because it's over the limit for this thread.
