What a cool / wacky idea... not sure I could justify $200 for a $35 watch BUT you know this would be a constant conversation-starter.
Oh, and unlike a regular F-91W, you cannot ever change the time or use any of the buttons.

Band upgrades! (Part 1)
A new Veblenist Rocco Canvas strap for the Seiko Yuto Horigome makes it look and feel so much nicer! Not sure why they ship it with a black leather tortoiseshell strap in the first place...

OMEGA X Swatch MISSION TO EARTHPHASE - MOONSHINE GOLD
Happy Birthday... to me! I've been eyeing these for a long time and this special edition was available during November. It was serendipity!

On-wrist glamor shots of the Seiko Yuto Horigome
The lighting is so nice tonight! They don't call it "golden hour" for nothin'... 🌅

Hlaska "Black Out" Automatic, #426 of 500
This one is another of my all-time favorites, love the typeface and case shape. I was *really* bummed when I scratched the case after the company had already gone out of business: I wanted another!

Raketa unknown model
Found this at a sidewalk sale in St. Helena recently: it's a former Soviet Union brand that (apparently) was created to celebrate Yuri Gagarin's famous flight! *Love* the face, even if I can't read any of it 🤣
#RyansWatches
Miyoko unknown model
Also found this at the St. Helena sidewalk sale, have never seen a case in this hexagonal shape! Had to pick it up.

Seiko 5 Sports Yuto Horigome Limited Edition, #694 of 4000
Another recent favorite, this piece was inspired by vintage aviator watches and made for Japan's gold medalist street skateboarder Yuto Horigome! So great.

Brew Metric - Retro Dial
My most-recently-acquired favorite, I absolutely love the color scheme on this one. I don't even know how to make espresso! Don't care. 😆

Apple Watch Series 6
Almost required at this point, unquestionably the most uninteresting - yet most-worn! - piece in the collection. Posted here for completeness.

Halograph III Chrono CMYK
Such a fun color scheme, it reminds me of the neon-colored pool toys from my youth!

Superdry Scuba SYG110B
No idea why the face has gone so cloudy, not stoked about that. Really solidly-built though, a great piece overall.

Eone "The Bradley"
Designed to be read by *feel* for the visually-impaired! Phenomenal design.

Fossil S+ARCK PH5029 Palindrome TOO
A very wacky & rare design! So bummed the band on this one absolutely disintegrated and it left residue on the watch itself that is hard to remove. Someday I will get it cleaned up and back in proper wearable order!

Casio CA-53W
(unfortunately *not* from "back in the day": I bought this after the re-issue a few years ago, on discount at the Sears in Santa Rosa right before it went out of business forever!)
#RyansWatches
Frederique Constant Classics Quartz Chronograph
One of my all-time favorites, it was my wedding watch!
