    Im definitely a fan of Skagen- cheap, flat, lightweight watches, that look good. I have a couple myself. they just dont display time correctly sometimes. Throughout the day it'll keep the correct time as a whole but on certain times during the day the minute hand is off about 2 mins. Wasnt a big deal but it irked me a little.

    Ive also had that Seiko Automatic 5 with a metal band you have. Ended up giving it to a college buddy from Russia when he went back to the motherland.

    I haven't noticed that issue with Skagens, but I'm not paying that close of attention. I've also got a Seiko Solar. Wearing it right now.

    The watch on the far left above is also a titanium, radio sync, perpetual calendar citizen. It's my everyday beater. It's a bit bulkier in height than non-perpetual calendar, non- radio sync watches like the black citizen in picture (3rd from right), but similar in height to a normal automatic (similar to the sarx 035 2nd from left). It's of course a lot lighter than an automatic. Love it so much. Practical yet looks nice imo.

    Both watches are JDMs, bought them from BIC CAMERA in Japan, but I see online shops selling them.

    Rockin' the galaxy frontier. Normally dont wear watches but I joined a step challenge and this tracks those. It is a neat device that has been sitting in my office drawer for a year.

    I was big into watches for a few years. Started buying mechanical and automatic watches and had a few Seikos, an Oris, a Hamilton, a Limes, and my favorite, a Kobold Spirit of America (manual).

    Later went to various smart watches (a Sony, then a Fossil). May try an Apple watch (recently switched from Note 8 to an iPhone 12). If I ever get another watch it will be a Seiko Cocktail Time (a Japanese Domestic Market version, not the newer Presage). Beautiful watch and reasonably priced.
