There’s a seasonality to it. If it is or will become hot and there is risk of sweating I will wear something on a bracelet or rubber. During colder seasons I expand the choices to include leather straps.
Apart from this: whim with an eye to where I’m going.

Re: Favourite complication
At the moment my favourite complication is world time, if that counts as a complication in horological sense. It is of little practical use, but oh so romantic and old fashioned. As are all mechanical watches, really. It’s a bit like having the world on my wrist.

Re: Christmas Day 2024: plans…and watches?
In Norway Christmas Eve is the Big Day, and we spent a quiet evening being eleven adults of varying age (98 to 22) at my mother-in-law’s house. Today will be brunch with the same gang. The best gift for me this year was that my eye surgery (third time) finally was succesful. And on my wrist will be ...

@ajax87 It’s a bespoke edition called the Wave, 147 made. It’s by someone called dad.watch on Instagram. 147 is the frequency (Hz) of the note it plays.

What’s 2024 been like, with watches?
The year drawing to a close, it’s time to look back. I’ve bought a type of watch I never thought I would come to have, a world timer from Chopard. A real looker, and very well put together. I’m enjoying it immensly. Here’s a picture taken in July. IMG_0114.jpeg And I’m looking forward to receiving m...
