It is definitely a great looking watch that doesn't have any design ties to the museum style. However, a couple of negatives. It's hard to get a very good deal on. I still feel like I paid some of the Movado price inflation for it as a quartz watch at $366 off Ebay. But I just really liked the retro evil panda look.
And then later while watching Netflix, I discovered that this is the watch that Doug Stamper wears on House of Cards. I thought it was kinda cool to see that Jack Ryan of the Amazon series wears the Hamilton Khaki Titanium I also shared a photo of yesterday. But Doug Stamper? Well, those of you who have seen House of Cards know what I mean. It's like that feeling you get when you find a hair in your food in a restaurant. Yuck!
Maybe we need a thread for that: watches that you own that you were disappointed to discover someone famous wears.

Seiko Turtle SRP775 on a Barton canvas strap

How do you like the comfort of the Barton canvas straps? I find them to be among the most comfortable straps that I own once they break in just a little bit.

Re: WRUW
Thanks! Even with all the new turtles this one is still my favorite. This strap is brand new so it hasn't really been broken in yet but in general I really like canvas straps for comfort and I really think Barton offers good value. Assuming it softens and breaks in a little bit, I'll be very happy with it.cel4145 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2019 12:29 pmThat looks really good!yinzburgher wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2019 11:14 am Seiko Turtle SRP775 on a Barton canvas strap

Believe it or not, these canvas straps from Chinese sellers for less than $2 are probably some of my most comfortable.

Re: WRUW
Today I am wearing the Bulova Moonwatch that I purchased from the deals thread a few weeks ago. Thank you! I apologize for the light...it’s dark here in the Command Module simulator. We will be in here most of the day testing procedures . I’m mean...errr, wait...there is a line of kids waiting to climb in so me and the four year old need to run .

Re: WRUW
Decided to wear this green dial Orient 3 star that I haven't worn in forever. The bracelet it was on wasn't the best, so thought it might look good on one of the straps I picked up when Lake House Leathers closed up shop.
I think I made a good choice.

Re: WRUW
How are you liking this piece? I picked one up a few months back myself but I’ve only ever tried it on a few times. I love every pic that I’ve seen of it, yours included, but it’s a different story on the wrist. I want to start wearing it to see if I bond with it but my head is telling me to keep it in new condition and flip it.

Re: WRUW
I love mine. One of the best deals I’ve ever gotten. My wife told me 5 minutes ago that she loves it because you can’t see the crystal.mrb12186 wrote:How are you liking this piece?
