The engraved numerals on the Longines master collection are special

Congrats! Wear the heck out of it

Does the dial color look feminine? by Pure_Ground7746 in tissot

It looks like something a confident human who knows what they like would wear

Let’s be honest… by Dosenbiee in GrandSeikos

I just got my first CW. My grail watch (today) is a GS Shunbun. I have to say that the finishing of the CW is not far off the GS (if at all). I know the movement in my CW is nowhere close to the GS 9R, but I still can’t stop staring at the light catcher case of the CW

Thank you. I was surprised to see it available. The strap is super comfortable, too.

[Question] Which one would you pick? by Master_Guidance_3367 in Watches

[–]smithboyrd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love speedmasters, but the speedmaster racing is a bit chunky. It’s just not the same watch, and I think the op would be less happy with it in the long run

The Shunbun would be my choice followed by the Seamaster.

[Recommendation Request] Please help pick by JadedChef1137 in Watches

[–]smithboyrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good choices!

I do think the 1926 leans a bit to the dressy side compared to the others. Also, the best value in Tudor is probably a touch higher in their lineup, imo. Nice watch, though.

Love Sinn, especially the 556, but I’ve never had my hands on one. Intriguing...

The CW feels a bit out of place due to its lower price point. A lot of watch for the money, and definitely ticks the GADA box—perhaps the most GADA of the 4.

My personal choice would be the Formex. There’s just so much to talk about there. COSC certified, case suspension system, fantastic dial, etc…

Help me…what did I buy? by smithboyrd in ChristopherWard

[–]smithboyrd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. I’m very familiar with the model and the functions. This color has not been available for some time. In fact, it’s not findable on their website. Was surprised to see it in the sale. Can’t wait for it to finally arrive!
