    I'll share:
    My first "real" watch, it was an xmas gift from my parents several years ago, I'm very attached to it.

    Its a Skagen, but I cannot remember what model, and I've had little luck looking. I have another Skagen, but unfortunately, I didn't really try it on much before getting it, its very uncomfortable with the location of the spindle. I also have a fossil watch, its nice, but a little small.

      are torgens any good? they seem to have a more reasonable price for an aviation style watch then bell and ross.

          Very very nice! I've always wanted a Pro, but now after seeing a PO Liquidmetal in person it's set in stone that it'll be my next purchase. Sadly because of their rarity, the price is quite steep so it'll be a while before I can get my hands on one. :(

            Those are gorgeous. I really want a GMT seamaster but not for a few more years. This is my only watch besides an old broke seiko, wear it daily.

              Picked up one of these last time i was in Germany so i didnt have to wear my Rolex so much. Very nice classic look and the leather band has a very interesting metal clasp. They arent that expensive either.

                  I never noticed it before, but the ring on that seamaster is surprisingly close to the ring on my sub.....

                      Thank you! The PO liquidmetmal is very nice, good luck with the hunt. I kinda wanted to pickup the meteorite dialed apollo-soyuz but was distracted with something else. I may come back to it sometime. Right now I'm looking at the newer POC 9300. Hopefully it'll be sooner than later.

                      Thanks! Best of both worlds with those 2 combo you're hunting for. Much luck to you.

                      And I guess the bezel is pretty close to a sub, but then again all these manufacturers have been taking design cues from each other for ages now. I'm sure there's an older watch than the sub that would have the same if not close to bezel design. A Blancpain perhaps?

                                I've finally realized a cause and effect - when I pick up night shifts I buy watches on ebay. Snagged 2 more movados - one of them will be parts for another one that I have - probably the movado "sport"




                                I'll use those 2 plus the one I have to make 2, hopefully 3 working watches.
