Smart Watches

I've never owned one. At least you're better than those who don't wear a watch because they have their cell phone.

bestest now is active2samsung

Hi-beat will make the sweeping hand really nice but spring drive is another level for that.

Only buy a Springdrive if you like thick and heavy watches.

The cheapest sweeping-hand movement you can buy now is the Bulova precisionist movement, at fraction of the cost of Seiko Springdrive. Taka is selling this at almost 1K but I saw prices as low as 150USD online.

Nice sweeping movement indeed. Thanks for sharing. I used to own a Bulova Accutron with the tuning fork thing. They make good watches.

They're good watches but not very popular here due to lousy marketing. They are partially owned by Citizen.

Until battery technology becomes much better, smartwatches are nothing more than a niche novelty. Even Apple smartwatches aren't selling too well compared to traditional watches.

I've never owned this, but it's one of the nicest and cheapest analog quartz out there.

The best watch since NS days.

I have always preferred the sweeping hands of an auto. Now I understand Seiko came out with the meca-quartz, which has a sweeping hand.

I find the idea of having to recharge a wrist watch regularly to be stupid.

Please share your thoughts on eating thrice a day to recharge

Yes, I avoid canvas straps. Prefer rubber or stainless steel. You can buy a shark mesh bracelet from aliexpress. Would look good on your watch. All vintage flair

i prefer silicon to rubber. I feel that rubber is not that comfortable or maybe i didn't get the expensive ones.

I have been wearing a Garmin smart watch for years to track my workouts. Going to switch over to the new G shock fitness watch because I'm a hopeless g shock fanboy.

The g shock Tough solar technology means I don't have to charge it if I don't use GPS all the time.

Shark-mesh bracelet.....
Man, that immediately gives your watch a 70s vintage look !
