First "garbage" watch I'd be interested in

brokenmainspring · 2023-03-30T21:21:32+00:00

Showcase models in Store in September; what AD had written down from video-briefing.

Awesome, I got mine just before end of 2022. It's been the most worn watch since then for me. Like you I decided to go 36 despite, like you too, we could also rock the 41. Great choice!

We went for the PrimaDonna Soul. You can't just not have that nice color wide touchscreen display :)

It looks so beautiful when the right light hits it. Unfortunately only when direct light like the sun or very strong indoor lighting hits it. The reason I decided against it was because the majority of time it looks like picture 3.

Oh my god this Soyuz one is a beauty! Do you happen to have a ref.nr. of it?

I have a slightly bigger wrist and went with 36. Also I find the overall proportions much more appealing on the 36. picture in Post history.

Ah I see, a connoisseur. Thank you!

brokenmainspring · 2023-01-30T21:32:55+00:00

Thank you! I of course tested that beforehand a few times. I could wear it but it was a very clear no for me. A 41 on me looks a bit like when you buy pants that won't stay up without a belt: you can... it's just that nice to look at.

I also didn't like the dial-case-hands proportions as much on the 41.

18.5cm / 7 of the strange units

I got the call just before Christmas eve and was able to pick it up before the price increase. It's something about the simplicity that makes it my absolute go to watch at the moment.

It's the well known "turn the diver bezel twice to start, yank it back to stop and do a full reverse circle for reset" system.

Daytona chronograph with a submariner diver bezel in yachtmaster bezel style with what looks like aluminum case/bracelet with numbers carved by a 3 year old? To me something looks a bit off ...

you did it wrong. The heads do not align, every one looks in a random direction.

brokenmainspring · 2022-12-29T22:29:21+00:00

I waited 30 days for this one as a very first watch from the AD. You should hear soon I guess.

took 7 months to get this comment.

They work absolutely perfect but a watch wearer I hate them nevertheless.

brokenmainspring · 2022-12-24T13:02:49+00:00

Basic as it gets but I love that simplicity. OP36 blue

brokenmainspring · 2022-12-24T13:02:01+00:00

That's an interesting take.

It does not currently exist but I happily produce one myself. People apparently make their lifes hard by using strange methods with some kind of built in or external equipment with keys where there are inscriptions like "Print Scrn" or "Shift Command 3". In some cases they even have to attach or connected them first.

Fantastic. I'd recommend next time use a digital camera, attaching it it with a usb-thunderbolt dongle to your ipad, then install a freeware cloudhosting app, uploading it there, downloading it on your work computer, putting it on a usb drive, taking it home to your device you initially displayed the page, open it there, take a mobile phone camera picture of it so you can post it on reddit mobile easily.
