I have to agree with most of the above comments. I love being able to look at my wrist to see the time and date. And I marvel at the mechanics of these beautiful pieces of art. I can't tell you how often I look at the watch I'm wearing to see what the date is.

i tend to wear cheap clothes (gym shorts, t-shirts, flip flops)... so a solid watch balances the overall look imo. it's a damn good watch and a small reminder how far i've gotten.

Everyday we rely more and more on electronics. Charge this, Download that.
Mechanical watches provide an escape of all of that. |

Totally agree with the above comment - nice to have something that works
with springs & gears etc and NOT batteries.... I just love it. Just bought my first Rolex - an Explorer II (white face) - I've worked hard and always wanted one... now I've got it and I'll pass it on to my nephew in the future... a family heirloom in the making. cheers |
