Having a gratitude practice is really important to me but I knew that sometimes remembering to do it could be difficult, so I made it part of my daily habit of winding my Speedmaster.
Every morning when I pick up my watch and wind it, I like to think of it as giving myself time (disclaimer, not my concept, stole it from some other redditor) and time specifically to think about the things, people, etc that I'm grateful for!
Winding a watch is a nice tactile way to connect to the mechanics of my watch, but it's really the intentional taking of a minute to be mindful that I really cherish.
Who else loves a manual wind watch?
My manual watches include an Ed White 321, Silver Snoopy, Kudoke k2, Grand Seiko Omiwatari, and an Arnold & Son Perpetual Moon... so that's 50% of my main watch 10-spot watch box lol
