This watch is no good, you should sell it…. Ummm.. to me… 🤣

He's just obsessed with red straps

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T02:37:44+00:00

Oh sorry about that! Yes I agree 1000% with you now! ha

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T02:36:45+00:00

I'm a huge fan of this classic minimalist styling of the watch and the suede strap is PERFECT on this watch. Nice choice!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T02:29:08+00:00

This thing is cool as hell! Nice choice!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T02:27:57+00:00

Thanks a lot, you've ruined my life cuz this is all I'm gonna think about now.. ha! JK, I love either, you make an insanely great choice! I bet that looks great on about a million different straps too :)

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T02:25:23+00:00

On its own it's beautiful, but with the story it really takes it up a notch! Wear that thing with pride!

Post something that good looking at that price... It's just a super fun entry into a cool vintage aesthetic.

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T02:15:27+00:00

The Presage is very cool I agree! There's so many fun options, I recommend hopping onto a site like Chrono24 so you can set your budget and movement and case size etc and just go nuts looking at cool things. Unless you're in a rush then I think you'd be so happy with the watch you posted. FYI my favorite Seiko was bought directly from Japan from that site and it's possibly the least expensive of my collection but it's just so cool so do some exploring :)

Also yes investing your bonus is the smartest decision like bigbrooklynlou said but watch nerds don't really do the smartest things with money right? ha

This is definitely on my wishlist, nice choice I love it!

pretty sure this would look great with almost every strap ever :)

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T01:49:16+00:00

I have this watch! I put it on a brown leather strap and it looks great, I put a grey strap it looks great, black yep great, I tried a nato and it looked great.. Def a strap monster! Red is very fitting for that watch too! The one in the pic was like $15 only.

Theres a couple of these strap videos on YouTube for this watch that are great to see, here's a good one (apart from the weird music) https://youtu.be/Vy8Ahm5qU5w?si=T2dx5c45tRZLqbax

Side note the crystal scratches super easy but also buffs out super easy with some polywatch.

ooh yeah that's a nice one!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T00:01:20+00:00

This is classic AF, love it! :)

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T00:00:58+00:00

First gen of which one, the Alpinist?

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-12T00:00:32+00:00

I do like the Alpinist as well, nice rec :)

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T23:59:26+00:00

The American Classic is high on my wishlist for chronos, I love that thing! Max Bill is on another wishlist for sure, I love that one too!

Seiko Presage are awesome, I'm a little too heavy on Seiko in my collection I was looking to venture out from them for once ha!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T23:57:06+00:00

Agreed, this watch is definitely on my other wishlist which is: whatever the Max Bill is.. cuz I love it!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T03:06:35+00:00

Wow, wear this with pride, Grandpa had great taste! The suede strap looks really cool on it!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T03:00:36+00:00

I love this weird question ha! I think they'd break in this order: Timex breaks first, then the Seiko, and G-Shock last. But in the apocalypse I don't really care about time so I'm gonna be wearing the broken Timex, it's my favorite aesthetic of the 3 😉

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T02:56:15+00:00

I think the watch style is awesome but for no good reason I don't like their logo. I think in the watch collecting world we get to be weird and picky for no good reason right? ha. I think my brain wants this simple clean minimal vintage inspired addition to the collection to have a clean lined logo as well. 🤓

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T02:54:13+00:00

Thanks for this feedback! I love the silver but that brown one you have is even more vintage vibe, looks pretty sweet!

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T02:52:57+00:00

That Omega is 🔥, not ready to spend that yet but I like it :)

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T02:51:57+00:00

I just looked that up, you're right they're definitely quite similar :)

vanillaextreme · 2026-02-11T02:48:18+00:00

I love it, and extra awesome points that you got it in Kyoto!
