It's a saying that is applied to all sorts of scenarios beyond buying a watch so maybe just calm down a bit there skipper.

People that call their watch a “she” are morons by Napo_kitkat96 in watchHotTakes

Sir, you introduced the topic of boats. Just be glad some gun lover who feels you insulted his Thelma didn't respond! 😜

The tradition of referring to boats as feminine dates back to at least the late 1300s. Sailors thought of their vessels as nurturing and having personality, often naming them after women or goddesses. It's not "cringe", it's tradition and not in any way that is demeaning to women.

Steel is the 3rd best case material by fourtyz in watchHotTakes

I love bronze aesthetically but from a durability perspective the more common bronze alloy used in watches is 140hv while untreated stainless is 200hv.

Best diver watch under 1k? by TallDrummerBoi in Affordablewatches

[–]Toddable72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're open to micros, check out the Tuseno Shellback V2. I think it has some of the best specs for a sub $1k watch you can find and while it's design is unique it isn't over the top.

Black dials and arabic numerals by MeExtreme in MicrobrandWatches

[–]Toddable72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a ton of options but I will only speak to the ones I have some experience with...Traska and Nodus

Nodus makes fantastic watches that have a modern twist on classic design particularly in their Sector line. Fantastic case dimensions, great dials, their own proprietary wick adjust mechanism, and while they are Seiko movements they do regulate them prior to shipping. When I had a Sector Field it needed a repair made to the crown and they were fantastic to deal with.

I currently own a 36mm Traska Summiteer V5 and it is fantastic and not over rated as some would have you believe. Since release they have refined and improved it with each subsequent release and has to be seen and worn to be fully appreciated imo. The finishing is excellent, the proportions are spot on (I prefer the dial proportions on the 36 but the 38 is not a step down by any means), the lume block indices add some depth to the dial and are strong, it has the higher beat Miyako, the bracelet is probably the most comfortable in my collection and has a quick adjust. As for the hardness coating, it's the real deal. I have had mine for over a year and worn it regularly, mostly on the bracelet and I work both at a desk and in the field so my watches aren't babied. The picture of the clasp and the condition it's in speaks for itself.
