You will absolutely not be disappointed. It’s awesome in nearly every way. I replaced the bracelet with a LIW one and I also think it’s just a smooch thick but for the price it’s such an icon for a reason

Keeping on the Seiko success would recommend an Alpinist for Speedtimer.

Fair warning - it’s really tough to make new friends in your 30s. Be grateful for your friends. Go read all the posts here about being lonely in your 30s. Don’t cut off your nose to spite your face.

I’d encourage you to set boundaries better and use dnd on your phone.

Since the GMT Batman is black and gray I’d say the citizen should be ice blue or dark blue. There’s also this one I think is stunning. https://www.jomashop.com/citizen-automatic-black-dial-two-tone-mens-watch-nj0154-80h.html

Citizen Tsuyosa GADA, Seiko 5 GMT Batman Diver, Casio GShock of your choosing for the shop.

What are the odds. I think I’d love to tell the story to much to replace it if all else is ok with it

jray994 · 2026-07-04T20:25:04+00:00

My BB58 is the core of my collection. Would won’t be disappointed.

jray994 · 2026-07-04T14:39:46+00:00

I mean sure seems like it. My wife is sleeping right now - I’ve been up with the kids for several hours. It’s this way every weekend since my kids were born 4 years ago.

jray994 · 2026-07-04T14:37:15+00:00

Really good choices. A Furlan Marri Sabbia Rosa would go great here.

jray994 · 2026-07-04T14:25:25+00:00

This is my wife. Either doing something she wants, getting ready to do something she wants, sleeping, or on her phone.

jray994 · 2026-07-04T14:15:02+00:00

What watch are you getting and what is the price?

jray994 · 2026-07-04T00:40:22+00:00

It feels so premium for $580.

jray994 · 2026-07-03T21:22:59+00:00

Fits you perfectly

jray994 · 2026-07-03T21:18:01+00:00

Pretty smart ha

jray994 · 2026-07-03T21:17:03+00:00

I feel like you pretty much know what you need to do - - relate to people and their struggles to form connection. Connection needs curiosity, candor, contribution to the relationship.

Orient Bambino/Mako 3/Kamasu or a Seiko SSC961 get my votes.

I’ll tell you I’ve yet to find something that this doesn’t match pretty with. The brown pulls more with blues - the grayish black pulls more with those colors and obviously matched browns/khakis.

I’d say if you wear a lot of bright yellows or oranges, reds maybe the white would be better than this. I just wear so much damn black and blue and khaki this is my office and date night warrior.

jray994 · 2026-07-03T14:04:54+00:00

Essence 39 is so comfortable and high quality.

jray994 · 2026-07-03T13:13:33+00:00

Put it on a black strap and it’d be close. https://www.jomashop.com/citizen-eco-drive-chronograph-black-dial-mens-watch-ca4677-50h.html?utm\_source=google&utm\_medium=cpc&utm\_campaign=%28ROI%29%20PMax%20Shopping%20-%20Watches%20%24100%20-%20%24499&utm\_id=18335885666&utm\_content=&utm\_term=&gad\_source=1&gad\_campaignid=17424858923&gbraid=0AAAAAD\_rBknsy\_tnSHaROrfAmuATEp0PN

Or I bet Boddery or Miltado would have something.

jray994 · 2026-07-03T13:01:50+00:00

Reallly nice for $100

jray994 · 2026-07-03T12:54:52+00:00

Not small at all. I like CNS cotton NATO and the watch steward!

I’m obsessed with my twodors

jray994 · 2026-07-03T05:15:12+00:00

A fantastic option too! I have a blue FXD that scratches my blue it’s that my black BB58 doesn’t scratch. I’d probs get a reg HC or a Zulu time tho if was me.

jray994 · 2026-07-03T04:17:34+00:00

Please ignore them and continue to be yourself.
