Black under the shade, Green under the sun

what's on your wrist today?

Still enjoy these, although most of them don't get much wrist time.

SPB121 because no "Alpinist" text on the dial made it feel incomplete to me.

Now the SBDC211 fixes that.

I only have one Seiko right now, an SKX007. Rest of the collection as shown.

Good pickup for the collection, or an itch that should not be indulged?

Timeless black, no explanation needed.

Green for a bit of fun.

Warm caramel brown for a casual but still refined look.

Endless possibilities. What color next?

So last time I posted my entire collection, and everyone practically focused on the moonswatches (I have a few, and some of the swatch X blancpains). Didn't really get much suggestions since people just commented on the plastics, so I'm revising my SOTC 2026 "excluding" the divisive watches

so, what's next?

considering:

- GO PML White

White Speedy

- Explorer 1 or Sub ND

The Santos Dual Time came with a dark charcoal/grey alligator strap that has a slightly textured, almost suede-like feel. Nice strap overall, but I’ve always found it a little safe.

I’m thinking of having another grey alligator strap made in this kind of smoky slate/charcoal tone — still very much in the same family, but cleaner and a bit more refined looking.

Curious what you guys think:

- worth doing as a better expression of the watch

- or too close to the factory strap to really matter?

OR - do a completely different color?

Thinking of putting a custom blue alligator strap with gold stitching on my two-tone Rolex Serti Sub

I had a mockup made and honestly I think it works better than I expected. The blue picks up the bezel nicely, and the gold stitching ties in with the yellow gold parts without being too loud.

Curious what you guys think:

cool way to dress it down / make it more unique

or sacrilege and should stay on bracelet only?

Current state of the collection. I'm at the point where I don't really want to buy randomly just to add another watch so I'm curious what people think would make the most sense as the next purchase.

I'm interested in what the collection is missing and what direction to go
