Remember when Jay was sure COVID was just the flu and then he almost got taken out by it? He was literally in the high risk category. Small miracle he didn't die.

My parents didn't get covid. Got the shots, and are still enjoying life.

Jay lost that round, and still owes us deck pics btw.

Is it as big as it looks?

It looks like it could contain a portal to another dimension.

It looks bigger because I have the wrist size of a toddler, but it's actually a bit smaller lug to lug than some of my other 41mm watches.

I have a 39mm Tudor Pelagos coming on Monday. I'll post a pic for comparison.

Who catalogs their watches by diameter though?

I catalog them by broken/not broken.

Pelagos 39mm for comparison to the Black Bay 41mm I posted above

As much as I like the Tudor chrono i posted above, I already have an Omega Speedmaster chrono in the same color scheme, so I'm probably going to sell that one.

First pic I'm wearing an ESD smock because I was out on our production floor.

Second pic is a fleece zip up. It was cold when I went to FedEx to pick up my watch.

it's definitely the thinness of the dial that makes the face look a lot bigger as well.

ken, nice watch choices, i got a regular tudor black bay blue, an omega speedy and a batman gmt

What would be a good beginner piece for a teacher? Something he could use when he gets dressed up for parties with the other lady teachers?

Seiko Presage or Prospex. Both lines have watches at various price points depending on how much you want to spend.

What's your budget? Prefer leather or bracelet for the strap? Do you want a watch that includes the date?

I like bracelet straps. Would $500 be a good starting point? I am literally just looking for something to impress women who wouldn't know any better while also not embarrassing myself if a guy asked about it.

$600 can get you a decent Tissot PRX. They make them in all sorts of colors.

You'll probably get more questions about your watch from guys, tbh. If you want to impress a woman (as opposed to just accessorizing), you need a brand name they are familiar with.

Thanks for the recommendation. Do they have stores or would I have to order online?

What brand do you think women would be impressed by? Other than Rolex? I really like the Cartier men's watches.

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61NM5ECD5zL._AC_UY1000_.jpg
They look nice without being obnoxious. They also seem like something I could someday afford unlike a Rolex.

Gucci, LV, Coach even?

Buy it used on chronos24 or r/watchexchange or even ebay does watch authentication now. That way you're not spending thousands for something you may not like.

Alternatively there are reps out there that most people wouldn't even notice are fakes. Better fakes than you'd find at a street vendor in Thailand, but they'll still cost you upwards of $500.

Gucci makes some decent men's watches for cheap

Took a photo of my watch for you guys.
This is the style I always go for.
Now that I can zoom in I can see that its a Citizen and its Friday.
The date is wrong but its not important.

Looks like an older eco drive. Those are nice, clean watches. I'm not a fan of day/date watches because i think they tend to clutter up the dial, but those are well done.

Sorry this isn't a watch, but...

a wedding suit

ignore the undershirt (it's going to be something different), shoes (they'll be nicer, but similar color), and scowl (this was picture 6,245 on the day, I was done with them)
