What watch are you wearing today? For me, it’s a Seiko King Samurai with white dial.

@Mtt Getting ready to sleep, so it’s the Apple Watch (alarm, and easier to read in the dark). But during the day, and tomorrow again, it was Hamilton time.

@Mtt I wore this Raketa Copernicus (older image, though). 🙂 3FA059D5-53DC-4CB8-8297-86FCFC68E254.jpg

@Erlend That’s awesome. I’m not familiar with that brand. Tell me more.

@Erlend Obviously the hands stick out, but I love the orientation of the numbers.

@Mtt you had me at “samurai” for obvious reason. Me? Apple Watch. Always.

@vikingsversussamurai Nothing wrong with that. I used an AppleWatch for years.

@Mtt my only problem with my Apple Watch is that it’s not something I’ll be able to pass on to my grandkid. If I did, he’d be like “Why are giving me this obsolete piece of junk? Apple doesn’t even support this model.”

@Mtt It's "Made in USSR"! 😅 Raketa is one of the brands worn by cosmonauts. There lots of fun mechanical Soviet/Russian watches out there. Search on Ebay, for Raketa and Poljot especially.

I've also bought Vostok Amphibia directly from Russia previously. They're great value, but I don't want to send any money that direction. 😕

All these photos are mechanical watches under $100.👇🏻 (Last photo taken from the web. A modded Vostok Amphibia Scuba Dude.)

@Erlend I am familiar with Vostok and had one of the aquamarine ones. It was just too small for me, otherwise I liked it.

@Mtt Yeah, I like small watches. ☺️ It comes in different sizes, though! Here you can see the larger one I had previously and the smaller one I bought instead. B5552A16-E1B7-4F05-A6BA-8A98D0389373.jpg

@Erlend Oh that’s nice. What mm size is the larger? I’m normally happy at around 42mm. I’m 6’3” with a long wingspan and large hands, so I always feel like they look more proportional.

@Mtt I think it's this. There's measurements on the site.

I also bought bezels and more that I had them install before sending it to me. :)
