Poor man's watch thread

^^ Quite like the look of that, and in particular I’d say one of the most successful attempts to integrate a power reserve indicator into the main dial. Most versions as done by Grand Seiko / Spring Drive just look rank.

The Helson and the Grant Stone Brass boots look like a perfect match !

Quick trip to Trader Joe's. These days I don't have many reasons to strap on a watch, unless I wear them around the house (not a bad idea). However I can't stop buying, 2 more incoming. These end of year sales are hard to resist.

I thought you were supposed to be selling off and tapering down your collection?
How did that work out for you?

Not well............ It's hard to choose what to sell (I like them all) and it's not worth selling the cheapies. Then when you do list a watch it takes a lot of time for a sale not to mention the annoying low ballers. I'll be giving some to family and friends this Christmas. At least I stopped buying shoes and boots although lately there have been a lot of temptations..

I like the stingray strap on that one.

Yes it is a nice one, can't remember where I got it.

I have to sell some too. Keep buying instead ) I guess I am just too lazy to start posting watches for sale ))

Most of my collection is here, only a few are missing from this photo.

Hey! I have that same Eterna on the top left winder. It's a great understated dress watch.
