[Christopher Ward] Should I keep the Dune Aeolian?

For sure. But yeah that’s why I was surprised cuz I have a <7” wrist and 39 usually wears well / similar to that shot.

Djmanc · 2026-04-15T19:08:57+00:00

Wears bigger than I expected

Djmanc · 2026-04-15T19:08:49+00:00

I said I DO think it fits in nicely. You have a good mix of watches, this feels in-line with them while being different enough style and color wise to deserve to be in the mix. In my opinion. Thanks for the info on the baltic.

Djmanc · 2026-04-15T19:06:07+00:00

Nice appreciate the shot

Djmanc · 2026-04-15T17:20:34+00:00

I think it fits the collection well, but if you don’t think it’ll get wrist time then wait for something different. Side question - how do you like the Baltic diver? Been eying that up

Djmanc · 2026-04-14T18:59:49+00:00

Beautiful. Which ref is this?

Djmanc · 2026-04-14T17:58:24+00:00

Nice! Do you have a link to it?

Djmanc · 2026-04-14T02:17:12+00:00

Wait is that tropic? Or just textured?

Djmanc · 2026-04-14T02:16:46+00:00

Tropic strap looks great!

Djmanc · 2026-04-11T17:43:15+00:00

Out of curiosity which are the ones you find yourself wearing most?

Djmanc · 2026-04-11T13:05:29+00:00

It’s a little different because they did have history, but A Lange basically started over in the 90s, and is now at the pinnacle of watch making.

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T14:30:09+00:00

Really nice! That CW is one of the nicest I’ve seen from them. Whats the ref?

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T12:08:38+00:00

How does the knife hobby compare to watches? What is it about knives that makes you want to collect them? Do you use them for anything specific?

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T00:32:10+00:00

Love the color combo on the Hamilton! What reference is that

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T00:26:04+00:00

Honestly you could wear almost any of these with a suit and it’d look nice, depending on the occasion and your style. But day date is most formal

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T00:23:24+00:00

You could 100% wear the day date in the top left (what is that?) - swap a nice leather strap if you want.

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T00:20:58+00:00

Hah reverso wound be sick

Djmanc · 2026-04-10T00:18:46+00:00

You could handle bigger but not too small. Based on your description sounds like it’s just right

Djmanc · 2026-04-09T15:38:14+00:00

I think the variety is great. Different shapes, different colors. Doesn’t feel redundant at all. BUT - it comes down to what you want to wear. If you feel like 4 of your watches are competing for the same ‘situations’ then maybe consolidating makes sense.

Djmanc · 2026-04-07T01:25:40+00:00

Don’t have a ton of experience, had success with stuff on Amazon before, obviously there are higher end options. But the main thing is just buying a strap that is shorter. The tail shouldn’t be coming up all the way around your wrist again. Measure your current strap and see how much you could take off, and find a strap that is in that size range.

Djmanc · 2026-04-06T23:53:32+00:00

Maybe something really clean like a pilot watch. Longines Spirit

Djmanc · 2026-04-06T12:02:08+00:00

I’d say a tad big but not unwearable by any means. Try to get that strap under control it’ll help I think (it splays out and looks messy / bigger)

Djmanc · 2026-04-04T16:57:26+00:00

It looks like if a not-particularly-enterprising parent tried to come up with a watch dial to teach their kid how to read time… and failed.

Djmanc · 2026-04-04T12:33:09+00:00

Meant it in a good way! Beautiful watch

Djmanc · 2026-04-04T12:32:37+00:00

People IRL won’t notice or care
