I don’t know much about watches. I wear an old Seikpo my wife bought me when we were poor, and a Timex Ironman. I gave my son my grabdfather’s Elgin pocketwatch, my daughter my dad’s old Seamaster, and have an old rectangluar Lord Elgin I’m holding onto for my other daughter.
We were in the mall the other day, buying some jeans for me, and my wife asked if I wanted to look in the shop where she bought her Rolex. I’m usually not too excited about watches I see, but these 2 really caught my eye:
Wondered if either of you had any opinions about these 2 brands/models.
Apparently I dig the Arabic numerals. I think they remind me of my 1st watch - an old Clinton. Any thoughts of similarly priced models from other makers?
Also, would you buy a watch on-line from that prestigetime site or elsewhere, rather than a store?
I’m not planning on starting a collection. If I bought a nice watch, it would be my main watch. So I imagine a more neutral face might be a better choice…
