A couple of my co-workers were interested in seeing a couple models from my collection before heading stateside. This happened to coincide on a wrist shot Friday... So here goes.
This is my aging Tissot T-Touch. It's beaten up from years of use, but I love it all the same. I purchased this watch from an obscure mom and pop store in the states that was going under. It has proven reliable and I receive positive comments on it all the time. It's a nice piece that I suspect I will hold on to for quite some time.

Another major conversation piece is my Patina wooden watch. Patina is a small Canadian company with their head offices located in Toronto. One of the huge benefits to this watch is their light weight. It's appearance is extremely deceiving as I often forget I'm even wearing it! It feels like air.
As time goes on the oils in your skin continue to add to the patina and character of the watch. It's simply fascinating in my opinion.
The downside is that - of course - some of the woods can be quite fragile. If they are not cared for or are exposed to extreme temperatures for extensive periods of time I've heard of instances where portions of the wristband will develop small cracks and fractures... Leading to the inevitable break.
I wipe mine down every 6 months or so with wood polish or lemon oil and it seems to handle the passage of time quite nicely. I also enjoy the fact that it blends in quite nicely with my skin tone. I get plenty of double takes and requests to look at it closely when it is noticed.
I acquired one for my wife and she adores it. I'll have to dig up a picture of that one when time permits.

Picked up a couple of watches in Dubai on my recent trip.
This one and a Rolex Datejust 2 with a white gold bezel.
Absolutely love this one, wanted it since I first found out about the brand and almost ordered online a couple of times. Ideally wanted to see it in person first and when I saw it at the Dubai Mall, tried it on, 3 minutes later I was like I will take it lol.

Those sevenfridays are dope, I really like that one, nice buy! I think it's odd though, that for that price range, you don't get sapphire crystal, only mineral, anyone know why that is?

I didn't even know they were mineral to be honest. No idea why, I just liked the style of it.Originally posted by 03ozwhip

Here is a pic of a Rado I picked up a couple months ago. Barely worn it though and it's a completely different style than what I usually wear. Also an automatic movement.

^ Sick!
Rado's are meh, I find. I like their Jubillee(?) collection though.
I also tried on a SevenFriday and I was surprised that the odd shape didn't bother me. It's not my cup of tea.
I just have my Seiko Automatic today. Boring.

Got my Seven on again today. Resting the Rado after wearing it for a few days. Haven't actually pulled out the Breitling yet. In about a week or so I will!
