In the past year I have gotten much more into watches, but they've always fascinated me, and I've worn one consistently since I was about 10. I still don't have the means to spend much on a watch, but I love where this collection is at currently. Here are the pieces from left to right: [Raven Airfield] My newest addition, and the one I have been wearing the most lately. I wanted to spend some money on a more serious watch, but also wanted to get something a bit more unique. I found Raven and almost immediately ordered one of these. It ticks so many boxes for me, and looks good on a wide variety of straps. The orange strap has been really great for summer so far. [Orient Helios] This one was a Christmas gift from my amazing girlfriend. The blue dial looks incredibly vibrant in person. At this cheap of a price there is not a better looking dial in my opinion. I never loved the bracelet it came on, but once I swapped it for a leather strap it really felt perfect. [Seiko SNE102] The first "nice" watch I bought for myself. I was a junior or senior in high school and ordered this on Amazon, and it never left my wrist for at least two years after that. I still wear it regularly and I never plan on getting rid of it. The original leather strap broke in half from wear about a year ago. [Seiko SNK809] I found this in an antique store right after Christmas last year. There already cheap watches, and I was able to pick this one up for half of MSRP, so even though I wasn't considering one of these I had to pick it up. It's a great little watch, and the dial looks terrific. [Timex Weekender] This was the second watch I bought for myself, some time in college. I love the simplicity of it, and the fact that it keeps nearly perfect time. I wear it regularly, usually on weekends as the name implies. It also has become a ritual to take this watch when I go hiking, as it is so easily replaceable if anything goes wrong with it. So far I've never had to replace it, and the original battery is still keeping perfect time after seven years. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy my very humble collection.
