    More Casio delights (guess which one hasn’t had any recent wrist time 🫣)

  2. #watchesofmastodon #automaticwatch #watch #watches #yayornay #marmite

    This was my first automatic watch. It was £37. I now have a further three automatic watches (Ruhla, Invicta, Seiko) and this remains the most accurate. It’s not to everyone’s taste (to me it is both subtle *and* gaudy!) but I always enjoy wearing it… and that’s the whole point.

    Anyone rocking their cheap unknowns out there?

  3. #casio #casiocult #watchesofmastodon #watches

    Now, I *love* watches, especially if they’re Casio and especially if they’re classics. But this reference is probably my worst Casio in terms of practicality. I don’t hate it - far from it, I love the graph paper background, the ani-digi innovation and the super cool method of setting the time. BUT… it is a bugger to see the time on either face (teeny hands/bad angle) and it’s a total fingerprint magnet!

    What’s your ‘worst’ watch?

  4. Yet another cash-grab movie tie-in from Casio.

    Admittedly these models will sell out before the weekend's over. So I guess we can't blame them for this kind of promotion.

  5. RE: indieweb.social/@tg/1162393882

    This post from @tg resonated with me profoundly particularly after my experience setting up a Pixel last week. That took hours and left me depleted and scornful instead of joyful & excited about a new device.

    It's a beautiful post on a gorgeous blog too from the dev of Current RSS for iOS. (I sure hope Current comes out for Android one day.)

  6. CORRECTION: it's from 1990, not 1991.

    @ichichich I recently brought my 1991 Swatch Gent Broadcast 📻 back into rotation with a new strap and battery. Great memories!

    (I admit that it could use a little Polywatch polishing. But the wristwatch still works and the scratches add character.)

  7. Something snapped, and now I own a chronograph 😅
    Can I join #WatchesofMastodon if we pretend the price is in EUR? 🙏

  8. This is my #Timex #PanAm Day-Date watch. I was thinking about selling it since I haven't worn it since early Spring. Today I have reassured myself that I actually like it. The case has nicely polished edges, the sunburst dial is beautiful, and the crystal is super clear. A keeper! #watches #watchesofmastodon

  9. Earlier today I had a one handed Cartier Tank homage, because the hour hand fell of the shaft of the moment.

    But this evening, I finally mustered up all my courage and decided to try to fix it.

    I am really proud of myself right now, because I (yes, me) fixed it.

  10. To my fellow (budget) watch nerds... I've been eyeing the Spinnaker Fleuss 'Orange Sunset' for quite a few years now. I'm not really crazy about dive (style) watches, but I do love the retro vibe this Spinnaker offers. At this moment the watch is on discount, which makes it even more appealing to pull the trigger. What are your thoughts? spinnaker-watches.com/products

  11. Now this #Bulova is what's up! It's a Marine Star with a high frequency quartz movement and it kicks ass. A lovely yellow dial and a silicone strap that's comfy AF. #watches #watchesofmastodon

  12. Yee, with crazy drops like this, I don’t even bother. Just an excuse from the manufacturer to create hype on a watch truly worth a buck. #Timex #OneMoreWatch #Watches #WatchesOfMastodon

    [Discussion] Did anyone get the Timex $1 watch?

  13. Not exactly a #wristcheck since I suck at them...but this is the #watch on my #wrist today. The #citizen AW1361-10H was one of the first #watches I purchased when I was trying to find my preferences. I bought this to see if the #EcoDrive #solar tech was good. It became one of my favorites (alongside the #casioroyale), and set my preference for #quartz movements with solar charging. One issue: the seconds hand is difficult to see. #watchesofmastodon #watchesofpixelfed

  14. Todays #wristcheck - another #Casio that's not avilable in North America. The purple version of the MTP-1302 is available in Europe. This is a crazy line - there are 5 available in the US, but there are 3 more variants in Europe and 2 more in Malaysia - and they don't overlap. That's a total of 10 versions of this watch. #watches #watchesofmastodon #wristwatch #watchesofpixelfed #wristshot

  15. I've not really been a fan of dive #watches. So, I decided to give the #Casio Duro a try. Basically confirmed my thought: the bezel on most divers are disproportionate to me. (I understand why they are the way they are.) One that I do like is the #speedmaster. So an #Omega is likely in my future. #watchesofmastodon #watchesofpixelfed #wristcheck #wristwatch

  16. I was thinking that I needed a #watch for formal wear. I wanted Bulova's "My Way" from the Frank Sinatra series, but it wasn't available. So I went with #Seiko SWR049 instead. I'm wondering if it'd look better on a Milanese band instead. #wristwatches #watches #wristshot #watchesofmastodon #watchesofpixelfed

  17. Shocked, SHOCKED, I tell you, to hear of his corruption. This is not even all of them.

    Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen watches collection, he scariest thing is no one can stop him right now and he can peacefully inherit his position to his son.

  19. @bgrier Today, I rocked my favorite #Casio #Waveceptor all day. Only to get home and put on my new #CasioRoyale which is not as cool as the $6 #SYNOKE watches with multi-coloured LEDs I got from #Aliexpress But still, a nice watch that will get modded at some point.

  24. So, this is my first #CASIO #GSHOCK #Watch and my second solar / atomic radio watch. What more does a guy really need? Well, besides the #Duro and....well. #OneMoreWatch #WatchesOfMastodon

    I also scored for my wife her very first digital watch, a nice pink one. Finally, this $17 simplistic design as well for grab and go elegant timekeeping simplisticy. #TIME
