Time flys..

I just realised I have not been wearing this for 6 years since I wrap it up n put in my safe. I wrote 4July2013 on the wrapping paper/tissue! Wow.. unbelievable how quickly time flys! Just blink and is half a decade gone! 


I still remember these ROO44 were HOT back then.. I hardly see anyone post wristshots nor I can recall I have seen any in the wild lately.. this had been forgotten? .. still looks amazing IRL IMHO.





Time is precious! Wish you all a great week ahead!

I have always considered myself an "enthusiast" and not a "collector"

I could never own a watch for 6 years and not wear it. But for a collector, why not? Must be fun to rediscover it. I like that steel 44 a lot.

I think a collector can buy pieces to hold and not necessarily wear.

Perhaps a "collector" might have a larger number of pieces in the collection. I wear every watch I have, I don't care about resale value. That trait would perhaps be a point to consider for a "collector" - keeping something in pristine condition. I could ... 

Thank you for your response.

It’s interesting to think about. I think I’m closer on the spectrum to where you are with your watches, but I sometimes feel the urge to try keep things in excellent condition, too.

Well said! [nt]

Wow, 6 years is a lot! You must wear it more often!

I remember this one perfectly. Make it in 42mm and could be my favourite Offshore.

Are you...

going to include it in your watch rotation? I should be interesting to tell us your feelings about it after wearing it again! Cheers
