I like the busy dials and faces but the size does concern me I have reasonably small wrists so if the watch overwhelms it I likely won't get it unfortunately there's no backup plan I've wanted that silly cosmonaut for quite a long time. My other issue with it is appears fragile, maybe I should stick with a traditional dive watch. I have three years to figure it out.

I just saw the limited edition "blacksteel" cosmonaute at an AD this weekend, it looks pretty good in person!

But, then again, I'm biased, here's my daily wearer:

Never quite understood the reasoning for spending thousands of dollars on something that my iphone does for free...

Why buy a Ferrari when a scooter gets me from point a to b?
Why buy a nice house when a trailer protects me from the elements?
Why buy a nice clothes when the salvation army covers my body?
Why buy an iPhone when a boost mobile flip phone will make calls and text?

Some people like to spend money on nice things.

Not as fancy as some of your watches but this is mine. Love it.

I have one of those too! :) I wear mine pretty much 24/7

Only thing is that it ticks.... really loud. And scratches easily. And the band looks really worn out (shininess) after some use though I must admit I've had mine for almost two years. But in spite of all those things, I still prefer wearing this one the most out of my whole collection :confused:

The green/blue combo that you have looks really nice. I wanted to get orange/black if I decide to get another one of these... but I think I like yours much more now.

They are great watches, I agree about the loud tick though.

Today I'm wearing my $10 eBay watch, which I actually really like. Especially at that low price :)

Other than that, I have this Seiko:

I am so conflicted (first world problem)

Even though I currently own and wear the watch I had always wanted (Rolex steel & gold Daytona), I saw a Movado yesterday (pictured below) that I fell in love with.

I don't want another watch. I don't need another watch. I wear the Daytona every day and wouldn't want to wear anything else.

But this watch, IMHO, is just gorgeous. I love the styling.

It's killing me (like I said, it's definitely a first world problem)!
