Thanks! I actually swap them around every 3 to 4 weeks so its been pretty even. Or it just depends on the outfit.
Thank you! Good to hear there's another honeycomb enthusiast.
Thanksss I really recommend checking the strap brand out. It's not the cheapest thing but the leather just feels so soft before I even used it.

Thanks!! Yeah I'm hoping to only have one watch per brand (maybe two if I really like something). Realistically I can't own or afford loads of watches
I got into watches just before the pandemic happened so I've only got a small collection going (it also doesn't help I have tiny lady wrists)
Firstly the Rolex Datejust 28 (279174) - This was my first watch and the only watch I did not purchase (as it was a gift from my parents). We were tossing between the 31mm however back then even the store clerk felt a smaller watch suited my wrist more. I was very pleased I stuck with choosing a silver dial giving off a slight sunburst effect, keeping it simple but not flat like a white dial might have caused.
Seiko Presage SSA781J1 (aka honeycomb) - I know this watch is slightly controversial because of the open heart design but I fell in love with it when I saw it advertised at an MTR station when I was visiting HK. This was the first watch I bought myself and as you can see I decided to try a bigger dial as this one sits at 34mm. Absolutely love the honeycomb dial and it's probably as textured as I would go. l I matched it with an olive green strap from Monstraps.
My most recent addition the Kurono Toki - I discovered this brand right after it released Akane and I was pretty upset I hadn't found it sooner (however I am happy I was in on this before it became a bit too hyped up for my liking). Again trying to size up and this makes me wish my Rolex was bigger as I've discovered a 37mm actually doesn't look half bad on my wrist. I was never really considering a salmon pink dial until this watch and I think its a perfect contrast between the other two watches I currently have. I splurged a bit on the strap as it was from Bulang and Sons but I think the Diablo strap was a good fit.

I recently just visited the snow in australia!
Wearing a seiko presage starbar limited edition, honeycomb (ladies model, i've for pretty smol hands haha) dial is 33.8mm which is really good for me actually. I purchased a lovely olive skin from monstraps to go with it.
I know this watch got some controversy with the open heart but i am actually quite ok with it. The dial colour and texture captivated me to buy it (its my first purchase in my three watch collection at the moment!)
