    I’m glad your enjoying your watch. I took it’s identical twin out a couple of weeks ago to post the picture and Ive worn it daily since. It’s very comfortable and handsome. I get in a rut and wear the same watch for months or even years. You inspired me to switch them up.

    Surprised I like it as much as I do. REALLY like the Tapestry dial.

    Glad you're enjoying yours again.

    If there is an equivalent to a “daily driver” when it comes to watches, this is mine: a TAG Heuer quartz diver watch. Aside from battery changes, it is a zero-maintenance watch; always the right time, totally waterproof with a screw down back and crown.

    My wife gave it to me, totally by surprise, to commemorate the birth of our second daughter. It has huge sentimental value now; that first event, memories of washing sand off of it from digging fox holes for the growing kids on Newport Beach, Disney’s Splash Mountain, etc.

    I was looking at it in bright sunshine late last year. It is so badly neglected; the bracelet is bent, the bezel is worn, there are chips and dings everywhere. My first thought was that I should send it in for restoration. My second reaction was that I never should. All that “patina” is part of the story to me. It is not the same watch without it. It is a wreck now, but I love it.

    Can say the same for my milgauss, 7 years between maintenance and a rock. Solid for an automatic

    Vintage watches and cars.......you can restore them a thousand times, but they’re only original once.

    Daily driver, that's it, absolutely.

    It's nice enough that I love the watch, but not so valuable I sweat about going for a swim or getting mugged for it!

    The only watch I really covet is a Patek world time. The 5110 or it's replacement the 5230 in white gold.

    I've just never been able to bring myself to pay that much for a watch.
