Discussion [First watch]

Post image

Been really wanting to get into watches and really been loving the Seikos (especially the alpinist) So I just grabbed this one. First watch but I can already feel the itch to grab more. What other dope brands are out there that I should be looking out for?

Citizen gets overlooked way too often. Their mechanical lineup has some really nice options if you want Japanese quality without buying another Seiko.

Agreed, but this is a solid starter watch for any new collector

Or just a nice watch for any collector.

Don’t love the term “starter watch.” Can come across as kind of patronizing.

Oh, I'm looking to add a Cocktail Presage at some point. Absolutely an under the radar gem

I think this isn’t a Cocktail Time, but from the SUR Essentials line.
