This one is for @metadavid and all the watch nerds. A vintage stainless Omega Seamaster with a bumper automatic movement. I’ve had this in my collection for 20+ years.

I LOVE the watch band here!! a nice summer vibe

I can also see how how my Raketa is its Soviet cousin, haha

I think selling to get crypto is the right move. I can’t think of a watch that’ll appreciate anywhere as fast (I mean, virtually no watch actually appreciates)

I had a similar journey with watches but I’m coming back to them again after having been mostly out of the scene since 2021. Different goals…before it was more about the flex, now it’s about things that I find nostalgic/cool, and they’re always in the sub $1000 range (more often than not, sub $100).

I bought a bunch of these bands years ago. I think they're in a watch role somewhere in a box the garage, lol. 

I am going to sell this omega soon and convert it into crypto which I still believe will appreciate in value faster than than the watch itself. I stopped wearing watches a while back. I lost my watch love after the iPhone replaced it like all my other gadgets.

Your Raketa post inspired this. Had to break it out and share the strap as well.
