Quartz version of the snowflake at 37mm, just right for my small wrist.

I am interested in getting a German watch. I like the idea of having a few different nice watches from all over the world. I've been looking at some of the Form Cs and Chronoscopes from junghans but would love to hear if anyone has recommendations or opinions!?

I purchased this online and was worried that it wouldn't live up to the hype. Now I'm glad to find out that the dial really is mesmerizing in person.

Wouldn't let me add an image, but loving the new model so far. Would look stunning in metal, and as much as I love the Casioak... I may prefer this.

I'm still fairly new to this game, and my budget is pretty tight but I managed to splurge for this one.

It's my first automatic watch. Had been working great until a few months ago, now it seems to struggle to keep a charge and occasionally sticks even when it should still have a charge. Need to find a place to take it in, sadly I've now moved from London to Chicago or I'd have just brought it back to the seller.

Hi, any way to know the watch that Juliette Binoche wears in the 'Paradise Highway' movie ?

What does everyone think about this watch? I quite like the look of it. And seems like a nice and cheap piece to add to the collection.

This has been my work watch for several years now. Still love it.

Bought another red watch after Seiko presage (spb227j1) And bamboozled again from pictures and videos since this is dark/burgundy red and not bright red. Oh well still this is nice and suprisingly thin chrono. So I will happily wear it.

My first post in this community! Hope more people join in.

I've been owning this watch for about a year or a year and a half, still looking brand new! The only thing I'd want is a bidirectional bezel instead of unidirectional, but that's just a nitpick.

It survived seawater, several sauna visits and accidental door knob hits. Trying to be as gentle with it as I can, but sometimes I just keep forgetting to take it off, and looks like it can handle people like me.

Big question to everyone: how do you clean your watch? I use warm water + soap but that doesn't feel too effective, especially in-between the strap joints.

Bezel swapped with triple date speedy, pretty much perfect to me now.

Were having our first kid in December and would love to buy a watch for him and then give it to him at 18. Budget would be 2-3$k. It could also be multiple watches. I have no preferences.

He would also be getting any watch I buy once I’m gone but if we have more than 1 kid they would split it. And hopefully I’m around a bit longer.

Thanks everyone!

I'm from MA, loved the idea of a Waltham pocket watch repurposed into a wrist watch.

This has been my grail watch for a while now and I had a reason to celebrate recently so picked it up. I am absolutely in love with it so far.

I cant take good photos, and I know its not the most amazing watch in the world (although it is to me) but I had to tell someone. I am in love with it.

I noticed that a few dealers that I frequently use simply disappeared. I contacted directly one of them and apparently, there's stricter guideline for authorized dealer. Is anyone aware of it or if you have similar experience with authorized dealer?

Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this watch? I had seen a video that said it was likely that Center screw being loose so it wouldn't wind, but even after tightening that it won't start ticking. Bought some simple tools and I'm willing to mess with it (I believe it was a cheap watch) I just have no clue what to do.

I got this watch from a flea market in Beijing over the summer. It’s a Russian/Soviet wind-up mechanical model likely from the 90s, as the watch face says “50 victory years” and the outer year/day of week dial goes from 1992-2012. The back cover has “950” in small etched numbers while the inside parts are etched with “2628” as well as “SU.” However, I have not been able to find any images or information for this model of watch on the internet. Could anyone help me identify what exactly it is?
