Saw a watch topic in d2jsp for the first time and realised that there have been countless topics about headphones and things that i am interested in, but never watches.

Watches are a fun thing to collect, mod, discuss, buy and sell despite their redundancy in recent years due to phones.

I only got into watches after coming to London, so perhaps interest is far lesser in other places..

Anyone have favourite designs? perhaps an heirloom watch they were given?

I admittedly dont often wear a watch, but when i do it's an 18kt gold Perregaux GBM7000.

I've owned quite a few nice watches, but if i buy i new watch i usually sell the old, and ive never had a watch with strong sentimental value.


If you had access to DF, you'd see a lot of watch threads.

if you are interested in watches, PM victorinox
he mostly likes the shiny ones that are of a poor construction
and knows little if anything about what makes a quality timepiece
but he would probably like to talk with you about them all the same

Yes. We briefly discussed. I think he was telling me of his knowledge that a little rolex or tag heuer or something was basically equally as good as a patek philippe.
