Can't wait for a strapcode bracelet to become available, since this colorway only is available with a leather nato, and I don't like to wear leather or nato's. I have some sailcloth and perlon for in the meantime though!

For me it's not about analog vs digital or mechanical vs quartz vs smart. I just like shiny things, and quality products. Might be me being shallow but I like holding or wearing something that you can tell is made well. Watches are one of the last remaining items left that revolve around craftsmanship. The fact that they tell time is kind of secondary to me haha.
