Gentlemen, Following up on the newest addition to my collection that I shared recently, I’m looking to grab an additional strap to change up the vibe. The watch came on a classic gold bracelet, but I’m leaning toward a dark brown leather strap to give it a more versatile, casual look. I'd love to get the group's collective wisdom on this. Check out the comparison photo and let me know your preference by casting a vote in today’s poll!

The subject line is self-explanatory. For those of you that have this watch, what's your opinion on its use as a GADA watch? If you don't like it (or even if you don't have the watch), what's an alternative that you think I should look at?

If you could own only one green-dial watch, what would it be—and why? Is it a Rolex Submariner “Starbucks,” an Omega Seamaster, a Grand Seiko, a Longines HydroConquest, or does Citizen deserve a seat at that table?

I got this watch a little while ago cause it wasn’t too expensive and I liked the look of it. I have small wrists, and so I worry it’s a little too big. What do you guys think?

Mission accomplished—I may have succeeded in getting my wife hooked on mechanical watches. While she was trying on pieces, she smiled and asked, “Did you see anything you liked?” Rookie mistake. Five minutes later I was making a completely rational case for why this Italian-made watch belongs in my collection. After all, every collection has gaps… and apparently mine specializes in creating new ones. I’d never heard of this brand before today, but I have to admit it’s a sharp-looking piece. I can already picture it with my Western wardrobe. Tell me I’m not the only one who’s walked into a jewelry store to buy a watch for someone else and somehow left with a new “must-have” on the wishlist.
