Do you wear a watch?

The new digital faces are weird, the new ones don’t have the messages app available, but the old ones do. Kind of annoying.

Yeah that part sucks. I’m going with the new infograph face, but I do miss the messages button. Maybe they’ll add it in a future update?

I’m using the same face right now, I’m sorely missing the messages app on it though, so I still have the older “modular” face around just for the messages app.

Apple Watch?
 
Yep!

He's retiring and also they detected a heart murmurs and he might need surgery and I know he'd get a kick out of the health monitoring.

:thumbup There's a bunch of Heart Rate related apps that you can install for him that will warn him if his heart rate goes above or below a certain threshold. And there's also fall detection, which would be great if you're worried about that happening.
 
Awesome. I'll have to check those out

He's turning 70 but has an iPad, iPhone, PC Laptop, etc. He says he's terrible at technology but I think he's doing ok.
 
What do y'all think of this Grand Seiko?

the pic , and the model and the technology is top notch for sure,

but isn't the color a little binding for the wear. Basically it will clash with some clothes

One thing about the grand Seikos, believe it or not, I do not care for the fact that the second hand is made on purpose to attach without any visible axle-attachment point. It's one of those "why" things... You *are* buying a mechanism after all. Or .. not, eh?

Bro slap a platinum Day-Date 40 on sometime. Without exaggeration, I would bet an every day wearer of one of those watches has one larger arm and forearm than the the other. :laughing

Yeah for shits and giggles I tried one on at my AD, what a sweet feeling. I'm not a DayDate kinda guy though, and he had a Patek Aquanaut that I had to have anyway.
 
The Watch thread

Not a huge jewelry guy, but love me some watches. I have a very small collection right now, but have a list for more that I'd like eventually (but probably never see unless I win the lottery or the YouTuber Mr Beast decides to find me and be generous :laughing)

I have (in no particular order) ;

A Bulova Precisionist

A Citizen eco-drive Calibre 2100 titanium

A Tissot T035435 Couturier

A Bulova 96D10

A Caravelle 43A116

A Hauwei android watch

A moto 360 android smart watch (that is living a well deserved retirement lol)

A digital atomic Casio pathfinder

A cheap Swiss precimax, fossil and armitron

There's plenty more I'm looking at, and I've found this isn't a cheap hobby :laughing

I'm really really wanting to get my hands on a nice replica of the Tag Heuer Carrera SpaceX 1887, since I don't have a spare $10g for the real thing lol

Also next affordable thing would be trying to get a Movado 0607001

Also if I hit the lotto I'd like a Tag Heuer CV2A1RBA0799 (just rooooollllls off your tounge :laughing)


Show off what you got, or what you want!
