Happy New Year, smolwatch! Easily the best UA-cam video I have seen this year :) that orange tip on the Hamilton is killer... My most worn watches of 2024: Farer Mansfield, Fears Archival 1930, Habring2 Felix, Rado Golden Horse 1957, Longines Silver Arrow. Looking forward to lots more smol in 2025!
Aw, thanks so much, color me glad (and thanks for watching, obvi). I went on a lil Googling binge looking up your lineup and wow, what a handful of killer pieces. Dig your taste a lot; so much character/class. I've actually had the Silver Arrow in my sights before but never pulled the trigger. Enjoy all of those in good health this year! More to come. :)
@@smolwatch Thank you! High praise indeed, that's so nice of you :) The Silver Arrow is a super watch - they have so many great designs in their heritage collection, but those long Longines lugs can be a challenge for my skinny twiglet wrists; thankfully the Silver Arrow wears really nicely.
@ all well over here , Currently scratching my head considering my next Casio purchase!! Did a big sell off over Christmas to make way for the next generation 😅 think I need a bit of steel case retro goodness - so a1000 and a1100 are on my mind ….. strangely interested in the Gold variants … might be entering an elvis phase 😅
Rad, glad to hear! Ooh, that's relatable, ha. I caught a glimpse of an A1000 in gold tone with a black dial the other day, and I was def giving it the ole double-take. I think the 1100 is on my wishlist, for sure, but probs the boring steel for me on that one. Cheers and have fun with whatever you snag.
I don't know why, I feel like there is something physically addictive about mechanical watches, like maybe my body unconsciously desires the resonance that it gives off.. But I always gravitate towards them.. Unless I'm just lounging at home, or is a Sunday.. In which case, I might just put on a casio quartz.
I get that, 100%. I might've leaned on the quartz a lot this year, but I agree with you. Whenever I have a mechanical piece on, I find myself just sitting and watching the hands sweep throughout the day. Something mesmerizing about it, f'sho. Enjoy yours and thanks for watching! :)
