2 watches better than 1? I think so.

Hello from a new owner. Wanted to add to the many other positive threads that make the watch passion/hobby even more fun.

Instead of getting myself a single watch (I wanted to splurge for the Daytona), I ended up with one for my wife and one for myself. It has been really fun to share the experience of mechanical watches with my wife. This is her first non-Apple/garmin/fashion(junk)/etc watch. I think she understands the interest of mine now. We have worn them nearly everyday since I bought them a little over a month ago. Thinking that blue dial Datejust 41 might just need to be on my wrist for a few weeks…if I can get it off her wrist. Lol. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and enjoying the hobby with others.

I’d post a picture, but unless I have 10 posts I’m told
I can’t! Lol.

Cheers.

Sounds like you and your wife are enjoying your shared watch experience. Good for you. Plenty of time to add watches down the road.

Think I can finally add pictures. Stop into the local watch accessory shop and bought a Rubber B today to see what all the fuss is about…giving it a few weeks on the wrist to decide!

Nice post. I’m trying to get my wife to share my passion as well but so far no luck. The bright side is more watches for me.. ��

Be sure to report back on the rubber B. Im interested in this option too. It's surprising how much the sub with O.F. or rubber B look like the YM 42 from a distance.
