unfortunately not mine .... it costs a couple of Taycan Turbo S

as a piece of engineering, it's simply beautiful.... and it doesn't need to be charged

Love this and all the ultra thin designs from Piaget and others.

This is the first luxury watch I ever purchased back in 2017 to celebrate the company I worked for having a successful IPO.

Had the privilege to attend the most recent US Grand Seiko owners event for Club GS9, hosted by the company, in Hollywood, Los Angeles this past weekend:

For an entire day and evening, they hosted multiple panels, including staff from GS Japan, US, and watch influencers, celeb GS owners discussing their brand experience.

Add to that free food, open bar, live entertainment and a full afterparty in the evening resembling any night club. All complimentary of Grand Seiko as a thank you to their current owner base. Took my wife with me as a plus 1 and overall I had a great experience.

Wow, just learned about this new indepedent watchmaker... who happens to be a 17 year old Korean American kid living in Illinois. ??

And his debut watch looks really impressive ?

And flip for local time here in LA at the moment.

Too late, you already count as a serious watch enthusiast, sorry ?

So this was unexpected, but after waiting over 13 months, I got *that call* yesterday, that the 40mm Rhodium dial YM1 I asked about ages ago, arrived for me.

Currently the only modern Rolex model I have any real interest in and it suits my low key tastes pretty perfectly ??

Hold 2 fingers in the top right corner of the screen. May get your weather data working.

Better wrist shots under natural daylight, can better make out details on the YM:

Wow, a mechanical delight but far too big for my taste.
I have hated the fashion for larger and larger wristwatches and am relieved it is moving a bit back to normal size.
I got an Omega Speedmaster Professional for my 21st birthday in 1971 and it was disappointingly larger than most other watches then but looks small now compared to those in fashion over the last 10 to 20 years..
