Watch Ya Wearing

Thank you! I traded a crazy ST Dupont I had received as a gift for the Orient, and didn't expect to love it this much. It's really well engineered, super beefy, but the design hides it well. The ratcheting bracelet is awesome. Definitely built to last.

Since today is a Blue Moon, had to go with the Chronoswiss ..
Nice. I just received my new Mako and it exceed my expectations. Hard to beat watch at that price range.
That looks good on your wrist!
My new Seiko Solar SSC031 "pepsi" chrono diver. I took it off the rubber strap and put in on the bracelet from my Seiko Black Monster that was killed in a drop.
Cheers!
I can't do rubber straps- they are too sweaty.
I like it- nice and clean

Nice and with the Coin edge bezel, that Miyota movement is a workhorse, nice score
Went to the jewellers today for a Skagen watch for SWMBO. An apology as I've been a pain in the *** these past weeks. I lost my job but have found a new one. Better hours, closer to home but a few grand a year less. Anyhow while waiting for the sales girl I saw this beauty. My first Seiko Kinetic. No name just a two tone blue dial M5 62 movement. Half price!! been waiting for a new Citizen promaster but this will definitely do.
It came with a metal Seiko strap but I'm not one for those, so a Seiko Rubber strap is on order and in the mean time I have a Velcro sports strap on.

(Im scared to ask this...) Where can I get a stingray watch strap?

Man, I'm jealous. I bought the ti date version last year. I wanted to keep it so bad, but it's just so tall. My Orient is actually taller (close to 18mm, vs 15mm), but the Orient design is genius, and it looks and feels significantly more svelte. It's funny, when viewed from the crown side, the Bangla doesn't look tall, only from 9 o'clock, which is what I see wearing it. I unloaded it pretty quick. I still want one.
Congrats! Go Orient!
Thanks. My wrist is 7.25 or so, but flat, so I can handle bigger watches well. 48mm is probably my width limit.
Thanks, and I'm sure there are many makers out there but I went with MrHanz , a maker out of Indonesia. He seemed to work more with rayskin that others.

The ti is nice, and without a doubt this watch sits high. And if the strap isn't that absolute correct size it will move around some. For the price of these, it's worth it even if you only wear it once in a while. I think the watch is a pretty good value.
