A little Horological coincidence!!...
Something horologically curious happened when boarding my plane to NY today.
Entering the plane I observed a guy seated in first class wearing a Tudor Black Bay black exactly like me.
But he also was wearing it with a James Bond Nato exactly like mine! Not in the original leather straps nor the steel bracelet it comes with.
That guy choose exactly the same watch and strap combo like me in same flight!! That’s a Big coincidence in my book!!
Regret I didn’t dare to try a little talk with the guy! Have you ever experienced a watch coincidence like this my friends?
Cheers!!

I’m a humble government worker, and many times I have to travel by plane to province. For several reasons, while flying, you have the chance and time to spot watches in other people’s wrists. Some of them really interesting or nice. One time I tried to ta...
Dear friend Rene: thank you for your thoughtful comments regarding starting (or not) a conversation with an stranger wearing an interesting watch...
... I guess that living in a Country like mine we are constantly "on guard" against the possibility of having our watch snatched and for this reason always kept out of sight, makes me shy of showing mine or commenting about other' s watch in fear that the...
Thanks to you dear Abel
I guess our countries share many insecurity issues 😔 By the contrary, our US or European friends show more confidence while wearing their watches, even though in some mayor cities they start to live dangerous situations with thieves, burglaries and so. Yo...
