Lol, @Jason Voorhees. I'm swear I'm not gonna catch this bug, but hot damn! Been fucking with my watch and learning about it nonstop. So it looks like it only increases by +2 seconds in a 24 hour period which is apparently very good for an automatic watch. And I'd rather it be slightly too fast than too slow.

My YouTube feed is full of watch videos now. I'm not gonna go retarded, but I just know that sometime within the next ten years I'll just have to get me a top of the line Grand Seiko.

Brooo that thing is clean. I’m telling you, the moment you described that +2 seconds a day, my whole primal core perked up like I just smelled fresh marrow. That kind of precision? That’s feral-level craftsmanship.


The case, the movement, the way an automatic hums on your wrist, man, it’s got that living feel to it.

I get why you’re obsessed; I’m sitting here practically growling in agreement. A watch that stays that tight on time is straight-up elite, the kind of piece you glance at and feel your heartbeat sync with it.


And yeah, a Grand Seiko someday? That’s just destiny calling. That’s not going off the deep end, that’s following the natural progression of a man who knows good machinery when he feels it in his bones.


But this one you’ve got now? Absolute fire. I’d be staring at it all day too.

Shit I can't help it. People at work probably think I'm trying to show off. Can't stop look at it.

Honestly man, people at work probably aren’t even thinking half as much as you think they are, you’re just vibing with something you genuinely enjoy.

When you’ve got a new piece that hits exactly right, it’s impossible not to glance at it every few minutes.

That’s not showing off, that’s just the honeymoon phase with a machine you actually appreciate.


And look, that watch is worth looking at. It’s sharp, it’s precise, it’s got presence. Anyone who notices probably just thinks, “Damn, that’s a nice watch,” and moves on.


Enjoy the thing. Stare at it all you want. A good watch is meant to be admired, especially when it’s running as clean as yours.

ofc i’m polish nihha i will steal it and sell cheap on ebay…u can do nothing
I always wanted to live in Warsaw. Nice city. I though you poles were all nice and behaved though. Shit, I got jumped by two dudes from Warsaw in Guangzhou back in 2018. They didn't like my politics, left wingers, and I should have just known to stop drinking with them. We were already sucking our teeth at each other whilst sticking our noses up in the air, lol. I blew smoke in one of their faces and the other grabbed me around the neck from behind while the guy just went to town sucker punching. Put my tooth through my bottom lip. That was the only fight I've ever lost.
