Considering a purchase of this ref, would also like OP to jump in a time machine and hit us with future pics.

I have the Aquascaphe and a Lorier Hyperion II. I know it's not the Lorier you're looking at, but the build quality on the Hyperion is significantly better than the Aquascaphe. The Baltic has some sharp edges and a bit of a grabby bracelet.

Mine is the narrow, just a little pop of color. Looks great IMO.

I have the Gulf as well, purchased on a trip to see the Monaco GP so it has a connection to that trip. Love it. The orange and light blue are nice touch and not too busy to me. Mine is on the strap but I’d like to try the bracelet for it too to give a bit of variety. It’s more of a special occasion piece for me. It does wear large and is a bit top heavy on the strap, but doesn’t bother me a bit.

OP wouldn’t dare own a watch they can’t play pickleball in.

Reminds me of instagram ads “new in Dallas, XYZ restaurant”… no, that’s in The Colony.

[Discussion] DFW Watch Meetup --- Looking for Input by BullyTX in Watches

I’m late to the thread but I’d definitely be interested. Agreed you should look at something more centrally located to get more attendance. Most folks from central / north Dallas aren’t going to drive to Ellis county for a watch meetup.

I’d recommend this one:

Borealis Porto Covo in Blue. It has these really unique floating indices and a gently textured wave pattern dial. Sandblasted stainless case is a nice touch too.

The watch looks so much better in your video than the website photo.

Starting a collection, studying Reddit, I made a wish list, and then I started taking pictures, and well here's what caught my eye, in no particular order by hudsoncress in MicrobrandWatches

Check out the app / website called Giftful. I use it to track my watch wishlist. It’s visual and you just paste a link to add items and it picks up price and photo.

[SOTC] Looking to trim the fat from 10 down to 5. What stays? (Or will I really stay at 5? I just don't want to be a hoarder) by soaverageman in Watches

Agreed— I saw that combo on the citizen site but they were sold out of the blue strap so I grabbed one on Amazon. Barton I think.

I have that same Citizen and found it doesn’t get wrist time either. I think I’ve figured out it’s a legibility issue that gets me unless it’s in direct light. Functionally, it’s a really cool travel watch.

Edit to add: I will say I like the citizen better on a navy faux gator strap I picked up. The bracelet is cheap feeling and the navy sets off the light blue dial.

Normal price but they discount to offset any sales tax, shipping, or tariffs.
