Watches - ExPo Style

[Yuman Desert Rat]

Kojack, I really really wanted an Omega Speedmaster or Seamaster but I $5,000 is too much for me to dish out for a watch. So after looking I decided on the Hamilton. Turns out the company that makes that owns the watch company also makes the parts that goes into Omegas.

I have a speedmaster chronograph and a Breitling montbrilliant datora that don't get worn as much since getting the Tissot Seastar. I REALLY like that Hammy with the mesh band.... I hate to be a copycat, but when I invest in another timepiece that just may be it.

Yuman, I'll trade straight up for your Speedmaster or Breitling :sombrero:

But don't worry about being a copy cat. I made the mistake and ordered a different mesh band before the one you see in the picture. It was a finer mesh but didn't look "right" on there. Too shiny. So I immediately ordered the thicker mesh with a clasp. Took me a while but I was able to change bands and adjust it myself. I have a small took kit thats perfect for glasses, watches, etc. I use those more than my ratchet set. Thanks for the compliments by the way. What part of NC are you from?

This is my watch before I changed the band

I like that. Very classy.

Thanks for the offer but I'll have to pass for now... lol. I live in New Bern. I'm originally from NY, but I've lived in AZ since 1997.

I have a Casio G-Shock Rangeman on at the moment. It's a very rugged watch and has the perfect name if you are a shooter.

I also have an Android Wear LG G watch but using that less and less these days.

Yuman, Ive never been to New Bern but heard its nice. I try to make it to the Outer Banks every year. I'm from Mt. Airy

Luminox series 8802. Subtle, not ostentatious in any way like so many other "tacti-cool" watches out there. Waterproof, excellent in low/zero light and one heck of a warranty. Replaced the band with a Maratac Zulu, and it part of my everyday carry kit. View attachment 286124

Just got this from my wife for Christmas. Hard to beat a timex for durability and bang for the buck!

Some how I missed this thread...
I have a Seiko, titanium solar and couldn't be happier.

I had a Suunto Observer Titanium for quite a few years and loved it...but wanted something more modern with more features, including GPS. I picked up the Garmin Fenix 3 Sapphire and have been extremely impressed with it. The GPS is spot on and there are a growing number of apps available for it.

This is almost like my hammy! Mine has date in a different spot however...at the 3 o'clock mark...a very different watch.

 

[chromisdesigns]

Orient day date self winder, stainless steel, and an old Citizen Railroad watch, quartz.

Added 2 new watches over the holidays, a Citizen eco-drive perpetual calendar, and a Suunto Core:

Looking good! I've had my Core for about 3.5 yrs and it's been bulletproof. Been through a few Tough Mudders and daily wear and while the bezel is beginning to show its age, it just keeps going.

Oh, and that orange NATO strap is a nice touch.

I love my Suunto Core, and wear it every day. Battery died again on my a few days ago, so I switched over to my Casio Tough Solar Multi Band 6...also a great watch.
