LunaTik Red | $80
This is a “premium conversion kit” that lets you turn an iPod Nano into a wristwatch. I think it is pretty awesome.
It comes in red, white, and black, and there is also a less-permanent and less-expensive model called the TikTok ($40) that lets you pop the iPod in and out. (This one uses screws and is intended for people who want to use their Nano primarily as a watch… And I think it looks cleaner.)
Steve & Co. | Natostrap | ~$26
Do you sometimes get bored with the stock bracelet that came with your favorite Rolex? I know I do. Now instead of moping about it, you can head on over to Steve & Co. and pick up a new one for just €19. I’m sure shipping from the eurozone can be a bit expensive, so it’s fortunate that they also make scarves, belts, and bow ties of exceeding freshness… That way, you can buy a bunch of stuff and justify it to yourself by saying that you’re saving on shipping. Smart thinking.
Bell & Ross | Vintage Collection | $2900-$4200
Not exactly sure where this particular watch falls along the $1300 spectrum, but at a certain point—which, for me, with watches is around $200—does it really matter anymore?
Bell & Ross | Vintage Collection | Vintage Officer | $2700-$4000
Prometheus | Recon 5 | $425
Sinn | 900 Pilot S Chronograph
Commonwealth | Diving Watch | $180
If this watch looks familiar, it’s because I posted one that looks just like it, except that one was a real Rolex and was approximately 150 times pricier.
Rolex | Oyster Perpetual Submariner | British Military | $20,000
This might just be a phase due to the fact that I recently purchased a fine timepiece featuring a nylon strap, but I am really feeling the look of this Rolex… Funny how a strap made from literally five cents worth of material can look so fitting and so fresh on watches ranging from $20 to 1,000 times more.
Archimede | Deck Watch | $695
Timex | Camper | $35 $20
Every once in a while, I actually buy something that I post on this old blog of mine. For example, remember when I posted about this Timex watch almost a year ago? Probably not. Well, anyway, I went and bought it.
It’s clean, it’s cheap (only $20 on Amazon), and it tells the time… There isn’t really much else to ask for in a watch. (Unless you are trying to flex and use your watch as a “status symbol,” in which case thriftiness is a liability… However, when it comes to status, I just let my good looks do the talking.)
