I’ve been lurking on this sub for about a year now (username checks out) but this is my first post. My wife gave me the box as a wedding gift when we got married last month, so I figured it’s about time to share my collection. As you can probably tell, I’m not really a fan of bracelets, so I’ve been experimenting with nato and perlon straps. For reference, I have 6.75” wrists. And sorry for the crappy cell phone pictures, collecting watches is my new hobby, not photography! Below is a little story about each watch.
Timex
I’m 28 years old and I was never a watch guy until I saw a picture of someone wearing this watch last year. I knew nothing about watches when I purchased it, but for $50 I decided to pick one up. I love the clean dial and I think the black case goes well with the light brown band, but the loud ticking was a bit annoying. This was my only watch for about two months, but after spending a lot of time on this sub I decided to venture into the world of automatics. This is now my “beater” watch, and since the box only holds four watches, this one has been relegated to the nightstand drawer.
Seiko
After reading r/watches high praise for Seiko 5s, I purchased one as my first automatic. I went with the blue dial because the Timex was black, and I really enjoy the color, especially in the sunlight. The stock band was pretty crappy, but I love this watch now that I switched over to a leather nato.
Tisell
After purchasing the Seiko I was getting more and more interested in watches, and fell in love with Fliegers. I wanted a Stowa but couldn’t justify the price. After seeing a picture of a Tisell posted on this sub, I knew this would be my next watch. This is now my go to watch for work. The band is surprisingly good and the domed sapphire crystal really makes this watch stand out. My only complaints are the power reserve and lume could be better.
Orient
Spending more and more time on this sub, I knew I was getting hooked. The Rolex Polar Explorer II is one of my dream watches but I can’t quite afford one yet, so I had to find another white dial watch to hold me over. Again, based on this sub’s love of Orient, I decided on the Mako USA, and I’ve been extremely happy with the purchase. I wore this watch at my wedding and bought my groomsmen black and blue Makos for their gifts. Everyone was extremely pleased!
Citizen
This is my most recent pickup, and what I’ve told myself is going to be my last watch for a while (yeah, right). The rest of my collection is made up of pretty simple/basic designs so I needed something a little louder. At first the dial looks a bit cluttered, but it’s actually very easy to read. I prefer mechanical watches, but if I’m going to go quartz, the Ecodrive is pretty cool tech… I guess it’s time for me to learn how to use a slide rule!
It’s not much, but I really dig this little guy. I picked it up a couple of days ago and it has been one of my go tos. It’s a [Timex Originals 42mm](Timex Men's T2N677 Originals Oversized Tan Leather Strap Watch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006G7TKGG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_FNX1CbMJMDBBV). I like the simple design and I really like the 42mm. It’s not too big and not too small. I also replaced the strap because I wasn’t a huge fan of the one it came with.
I’ve recently started getting into watches, and luckily for me and my wallet, I’m a big fan of Timex’s aesthetic, quality, and price. Although this is marking the beginning of a very financially dangerous journey.
Timex Originals T2N677A maybe?

This one is even better(but 3 times the price) if you like the clean black dial/bezel + tan strap look: http://www.amazon.com/Timex-Reader-Leather-Strap-Watch/dp/B006G7TKGG/ref=pd_sbs_watch_5?ie=UTF8&refRID=0JFR41EKJ9BBW0FQDVJE
