Independents

Today’s wrist companion. I’ve grabbed this one a few times this last week, probably driven by the desire for something different after a number of days traveling with a single (traditional) watch. ...  

What’s interesting is that traveling with it for three + weeks this summer didn’t change my desire for it. Although it wasn’t the easiest companion for suit days and so I did admittedly also take a Furlan Mari on that trip for some of those days.

When I grow up...

…there’s no value in waiting. We are getting old and eventually only a 44mm or 47mm Panerai will be useful for your old eyes !!! I have debated on whether an upgrade in Urwerk might be a goal. I’ve always had the 110 on my radar, but perhaps not as wearab... 

It's already discontinued too. So I will have to find one soon or forever hold my peace!

conversations started over that piece!

Civilians I mean. Watch folk for sure are curious as you just don’t see them around that much.

Also on my wrist yesterday ...  

I don’t think I’d go back to not having something that’s visually different like this. It obviously doesn’t have to be an Urwerk, for example I got a friend of mine a Gorrilla several years ago and that fills the same niche.

In my case, once I've covered the basics, I start thinking about adding something different...

I really like your style both in watches and in dressing, enjoy!

Monotony wearing that one.

Will 2024 be your Urwerk year?

But am not anticipating buying a second one.

I didn’t know you’d already done so. Was I mistaken for the past several years or did the watch arrive during that time?

A misunderstanding. A former member helped me get one. I do not recall when
