In reply to Peter John. Me too. I'm still wearing the same Swiss Military I received as a present 25 years ago. All original parts except for the band. Which I replaced with a Strapsco band, incidentally. : )

In reply to Randy Beamer. I am in that category as well. Probably have over 100 vintage pieces. Nothing valuable, just the run of the mill Bulova, Elgin, Wyler, Swiss brands. 1930’s-1980’s..

Good article. I would have to agree, I wear my watches for time and date keeping as well as good looks. I lean toward minimalism. Lately I have swapped out some of my black and brown leather straps for Strapsco. I like the performance of the rubber bands and found they even have a little texture to them.

I am looking for a basic watch that tells network time and date. Any suggestions?

I have recently started to collect some watches and I always think that a Leather strap gives a touch of elegance to a watch.

You left out “The Historian”. One who wears vintage watches from numerous manufacturers, whether they are American, Swiss, German, etc.

An interesting take on “watch heads”, ( like gear heads in the automotive world? ) What watch to wear when driving the Jag, or traveling to a foreign country? This is the fun part. Do I wear a leather strapped tool watch with an old
Fiat or do I put on the SS racing band.
A simple way to stand out without seeming to do so.

No functionalist category for tool watch lovers?

My leather watch band is holding up nicely. I’ve attached the leather band to my Fitbit. It’s a nice mix of tech & tradition since Fitbit can’t figure out how to make their watch band work or hold up. wje
