Hope so and agreed ha ha. I love my simple ol watch and to me sometimes low tech is the best tech.......but then I digress lol.

Whether it be a pocket watch or wrist watch,I hope watches will still be around for a very long time regardless of technology as they are just a wonderful looking accessory to have and I would be sad...

That's a very nice looking no nonsense watch,I like it.Better the watch smells like candy than stinky wrist sweat. It's for that very reason why I prefer metal watch bracelets as opposed to leather...

Oh lord I have been perusing watches as of late...a kings ransom they are and wouldn't ya know ,I take a liking to Seiko's .....yer killin me man.But they are nice .:)

Gorgeous piece !:)

One day I hope to own a windup analog watch again. Why some would ask ? Guess for the same reason I shave old school... more sustainable.

Thanks for all the good info guys....lots to munch on here.

could someone also explain these engines and numbers etc. ? I'm not knowledgable about watches but If I could know what I'm looking for,I might look into getting one of these russian windups.

Bharner...tell me a bit about Vostok watches please are they good ? I am looking online at a couple of websites.

Thanks for the heads up Grizz...Honestly I don't know a whole lot about watches. I have a crappy ol modern Timex heh. I remember when Timex was supposed to take a licking and keep on ticking ....

Found this site here The Last Wind-Up :: New Wrist Watches . The Mallards and the Momentums seemed fairly affordable and sensible .

Might get on line tonight and see what's out there on the market. I have my grandfathers old pocketwatch that I'm going to get fixed one day when I have the dough.

Haven't read through the whole thread but,since I'm older school generation....I long to have a mechanical wind up watch again. Batteries wear out.Watch repair gives someone a job and brings back...
