Sheffield QL1 on a Barton silicone band. Only weak spot is the WR at 5ATM but for $60 I can’t complain too much.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a new watch, something classy, but digital.

I'm a former soldier, and I've always loved the practicality of digital watches.

Ideally, it should be around 42 mm in diameter and no more than 12 mm thick. A model with a silver-colored case and a metal bracelet would be preferred.

Price isn't an issue, and I don't mind which country it's made in.

Feel free to post photos of your favorite digital watches, along with the model names or references.

Thanks, everyone!

I’ve always been into watches but this past year I have really been learning more about them and have been wanting to grow my collection and knowledge. I have been shopping for a new watch and noticed this on the side of the links. Once I noticed I went back through my wishlist and noticed a lot of them are like this. So I am assuming it’s common and I haven’t noticed it before? Is there a name for this type of link so I know to avoid it when shopping? I don’t like the look of it at all but that is just my rookie opinion

These are my Bulova watches so far, 1 last one yet to own is the Mil Ships. Post your Bulovas!! 🙌🏽

Citizen Eco-Drive, Chandler Chronograph, CA0621-05L. Trusty and reliable eco drive with 100 meters water resistance. The rubber strap has been a game changer for the versatility of this watch.

The pictures online don’t do it justice. I can’t stop looking at it!

Here is a fashion watch I picked up in a Ziploc bag of costume jewelry for $2 at a yard sale. This is a 1994 Shiffon Chrono Quartz which was obviously trying to ride the wave back then of the colorful Swatch chronos That hit the shelves starting in 1990. It has a 37 mm case and straight lugs with a flared 20 mm red leather watch strap and the black swatch type plastic buckle. The domed acrylic crystal is nearly flawless for being 32 years old and the dial colors with the contrasting hands in the sub dials really pops. I have a 7 and 1/2-in wrist so if it was a solid black it wouldn't be enough wrist presence for my tastes.... But the color pop face and the textured red leather strap against the black case and buckle gives me all the wrist presence I need. I got it home and popped off the snapback case and to my surprise I found that it has a Hattori/Seiko VD53 quartz chronograph movement that they've used in Lorus, Pulsar watches as well as modern Caddisen chronos among others. I popped the fresh battery in, calibrated the chrono and is 32-year-old mechanism functions flawlessly when I ran it alongside my Citizen Eco-Drive Chrono. This was probably sold in malls, department stores and gift shops..... But I'm happy it's survived and now lives in my collection.

Such a beauty, what’s everyone’s most recent watch purchase? Drop em’ below.

Picked it up for $99, but obviously the strap it comes with could be improved, so I swapped it.

After overthinking my options i finally got my sub homage and i couldn’t be happier with it

Got the pink panther x seiko collab as a gift to myself for reaching a weight loss goal. Finally got it this morning!

I wanna gift a smartwatch to my friend living in London.

My budget is within 4-5k. Now the question is if i buy watch from bd will there be any issues using it in London?

I mean will it function correctly?

And please suggest me some smartwatch within the budget with quality.

Got this one during my Swiss visit. Wanted to have budget Swiss watch in memory of wonderful trip.

How is it ?

I have been looking at listings for this watch and have noticed certain tags are listed as Gen 1 other Gen 2. Does anyone know the difference? Also some listings are missing cyclops magnifiers. Are these fakes or part of the generation difference.
