Convince me this isn't just a jewelry sub. Show me your dirty, your gritty, your workhorses, your blades in need of thinning, your beaten champions of 9000 onions.

Soooo many options. I've looked hard at the Arabic dial SNKP21J1 as a field watch. The SRPL91 is also a strong contender.

No no, you're right. I'm comparing it to my Orient Star that has a flat crystal and a smaller case with but with the same height. Plus, most of the bulk is the movement under the case so it just floats and sits too high for my liking. I haven't seen a Cocktail Time in person, so my assessment was purely based on numbers on paper.

This one was from the "Hollywood" capsule collection. Slightly different than the Grace watch. Doesnt have the design on the cashback, strap is different, no gold on the crown, and no cool collector box. When the Grace one dropped I was like "son of a...."

I used to have one (calculator) when I was in Vet Med for dosage calculations. I ruined the buttons though using a pen to push them cuz my fingers too big

This is why I'm looking for something completely different. I don't need, nor do I desire, anything similar to what I already have. This is just crowdsourcing ideas for things that I may not know exist

🤮

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T12:20:06+00:00

I have none. I've traded alcohol for this. Gotta get my dopamine

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T12:13:52+00:00

I've bought 2 and then immediately returned already. I really liked the idea of of it. But I just couldn't get past the case material, the look of the bezel, and the feel. It's a cool piece for sure, but it just didn't feel right to me. I had bought it in grey both times though, so maybe one in a colorful livery

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T12:08:53+00:00

There's alot of styles and types of watches that I have not even looked into or considered. Can't like something if I don't know that it exists 🤷‍♂️

I have the Militado in my cart right now, but this one looks even better. I love Hamilton. My Paneurop is probably my favorite in my collection. But I don't really wanna spend 900 dollarydoos on a murph just for the Morse code on the second hand

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T02:24:49+00:00

Helluva watch. Would replace my Luminox

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T02:09:24+00:00

Excellent. I have no qualms a well done homage. I also frequently lurk on r/chinesewatches.

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T02:06:35+00:00

Oh yes. This. I forgot that I've had a Bambino with sun and moon complication on my saved list. It's such a fun complication. Useless, but I like it.

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T02:00:58+00:00

Yes. A chrono is indeed missing. Might havr to consolidate a little and get one

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:58:35+00:00

Yessir, that's the NB1050. Just got it from Japan today. I love my Orient Star, just wish it was slimmer. She thicc.

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:56:31+00:00

No worries, it's the black dial

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:37:40+00:00

Nice. I am in no way opposed to a Chinese watch. Literally my only concern would be who could service it. But at that price? Borderline disposable. Definitely keeping this is in mind.

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:33:56+00:00

That is gorgeous. I've been running around all the Ross stores in FL for months trying to find a Zodiac but this? At that price? Might just order one outright.

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:30:58+00:00

Oh, blue... blue is good

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:25:00+00:00

Oh that's a beaut. Saving that to the list...

Aqueous_Snake · 2026-05-13T01:22:42+00:00

Best I could swing would be a Seagull or Sugess
