BBB today.
A new one! Well, new to ME anyway. This is a ‘90s Concord Saratoga. It’s a Swiss Made “high end” quartz that almost requires a computer engineering degree to set properly. I muddled through it, but I have little clue how to access its laundry list of functions. At least it’s immune to the Y2K bug and can display the current year! It’s not something I would’ve bought for myself, but my jeweler friend gave it to me as a gift.
I guess one sign you have a real “problem” is when your supplier starts giving you stuff for free.
Addendum: I should’ve pointed out that the display here is set to the perpetual calendar with day of the week at 11 o’clock, week of the year at 1 o’clock, and US style date (MM/DD/YY) below the hub.
This is my only watch. You might possibly remember me buying it during the course of the original thread, but I never took a photo of my own one at the time. It’s not expensive, and it runs slow enough that it needs adjusting at least every other day; but I’ve been very happy with it – I’d fancied the idea of a pocket watch for years, and it turned out that I enjoy wearing it every bit as much as I’d imagined. For scale, it’s presented here alongside a standard reference cat.
Is that an Imperial cat or a metric cat?
He’s pretty imperial most of the time.
I know this is a watch thread, but I got a new coat yesterday and I love it
Can’t really see, but there is lots of orange detailing.
And to continue the colour scheme…
I love my watch but haven’t worn it for months because of all the hand washing

That color does go well with the coat.
Because orange is objectively the best color: you’ve just won the internet!
