[Question] Am I a watch collector if I only own casios? in c/watches@style.land

I wouldn’t consider you a collector. But I wouldn’t consider myself a collector. And I have like 5 luxury watches. But hey, these are 5 off the shelf Rolex, IWC… that’s not collecting for me. That’s owning some nice watches. You own some nice Casios. That’s cool!

[ Omega ] If you could only have one, which one would you choose and why? in c/watches@style.land

I personally don’t like the seamaster. The shape of the case, the wave design, the escape valve. This watch does nothing for me.

The speedy is the perfect chrono. I own one and it ties with my vintage sub for the perfect everyday watch.

I would go for the classic Speedmaster.

[SeikoSRPD59] Not sure why other watchmakers don't look at Seiko, and think "we need good lume like them!" Am I crazy? in c/watches@style.land

I would say most people don’t care about lume!?

[question] Is luxury watches worth it? in c/watches@style.land

Only buy one if you can easily afford it. It’s basically jewelry.
