Very strong caramel finish though I’m having trouble figuring out what notes it’s leading wi...

Probably, because unlike me, you didn't get suckered into buying a timeshare. [emoji15]

Yeah, fair enough. Still, glad to see you can enjoy it!

Those straps all come in other colors, by the way. Hirsch has some fantastic straps. I think a watch like that begs for something nicer than just plane leather. I appreciate that sentiment but at the same time, I’m trying to see if I can get more daily wear out of the watch, so the goal is to dress...

I say this with positivity and praise for the C60 rather than criticism. It’s so good in my eyes that there will now just be iterative updates, like a mature big brand This feels right to me. Updates as technology or changes in overall purpose for the model range or brand allow. Other things like g...

I appreciate that Andrew and Dickchins are so willing to rush to my aid! I am betting I would not go wrong with them as groomsmen. But, the roles are spoken for, and I think (emphasis on think) the madness has passed for now.

So I just had a stupid Black Friday thought. How about some C63 Sealanders as groomsmen gifts? Problem is that none of them are watch guys, although most of them would still appreciate it, I think. I could go quartz malvern chronograph to make the gift a bit more "accessible" but I dunno....

I wonder how quoting Austin Powers goes over for a bunch of Brits. It's not the first time I've done it on this forum!

I have yet to succumb to any Black Friday purchase, but I've got a bunch of suspect tabs open on my browser window right now (Amazon, Hodinkee, CW, etc).

I am happy to hear that fellow forum members are not so stubborn as me though.

I also like to live dangerously...

So I am looking for a brown strap to dress down a white dial dress watch, but I can't really decide which kind of brown would work best. I'm not in the mood to just buy all 3, so please help me out!

Crappy Kirkland Kombucha from Costco. Hopefully some nice bourbon tonight though!

Happy Birthday, Guy! Make it a great one.

There are a lot of watch infomercials out there. Probably the nature of the business of "watch journalism" and all that. Still, certain outlets provide useful reviews, particularly Worn and Wound, I think. Case in point, their review of the Sinn EZM 13 probably was the thing that sold me o...
