Pairing new Bronco with nice new watch? ⌚︎

[DJ1]

Was directed here. Glad to see at least a little bit of fellow watch enthusiasm.

Wife was able to snag some Moonswatches for Xmas. Got this one along with a Pluto (still waiting on the new strap for the Pluto). Feels just like a regular Speedy...minus some weight hah.

Awesome! I got a Jupiter for my son when they first released and Venus for my wife this Christmas. Fun watches, and as you said, like a Speedy but lighter. Much lighter.

Nice! She also picked up a Jupiter for a buddy of mine and a Venus for herself!
But I had enough of those plastic Speedies over the weekend. Speedy Tuesday will always be reserved for the OG.

I'm a watch guy to a point. I like watches but can't stomach some of the higher prices. A few lower to mid range autos, which are my current favorites. Some normalish range quartz watches (think Citizen) and a handful of G-shocks that I've collected over the years. I think I'm at 12 total including my Garmin. I still wear traditional watches when I go out, but around the house, normal activity, etc. the Garmin gets the vast majority of my wear time.

Not looking to pair anything with my Bronco per se, but always on the lookout for the next one to chase down. Moonswatch is the current interest. Waiting to get through the holidays before I go scoop one up. I'd love to get a nicer Omega at some point too, but for that money I'll really have to love it.

You might try one of the Seiko Prospex automatics. One of my favorites with a great automatic movement, day/date function and virtually indestructible. For an automatic. (It's not a G-Shock)

Here is my pairing....LOL

Anyone admires German watches?

Like @DJ1 said, can't go wrong with a Seiko!
Also, I'll always throw in a Hamilton recommendation.
Great pieces at a great price point. Here is my Khaki "king".

Bought the Apple watch mainly for mountain biking. If I take a fall, the watch will ask if I have fallen and if I need help. Wear it more than my Submariner or the Tag. I never really looked at Omega's, but I like what I see. May go that route if I ever decide to get another watch.

I have an Apple watch that I wear around the house and for exercise. My uncle had a pretty nasty bike crash one day and it probably saved his life.
I'll be happy to take that Sub off your hands though...

Funny because I have had a few people say the same thing about my Bronco. The only things I love more that the Sub and the Bronco are the family and the dog! And the family is questionable every now and then

My Prospex PADI edition gets a ton of wear! Seiko makes a great watch and I'm always keeping an eye out for another one I like.

I keep waiting to see the one Hamilton that I have to have. I've definitely been eying the Khaki line for a while but hesitant until I see one at the store on my wrist if that makes sense. I forget which one I tried on but it seemed a bit small at the time if I'm being honest. Definitely going to keep looking though. A good field watch is definitely missing from my collection.

Newest addition to my collection. Omega Titanium Bond....

Love German Watches! That PanoInverse is awesome! A. Lange is on my list of "someday" watches.

This reminds me of a forum for a fancy sports car LOL. A Bronco match would be more of a Casio G-Shock, Luminox 3001, or Marathon TSAR.

 

[vbrad26]

Nah, I went wheelin' with my Tudor GMT over the weekend! Lol.
