What watch you're wearing?

A cheap quartz Speedmaster look-a-like. Going to try this on a tan leather strap.

A new Aevig Huldra V2 in orange (matching the hands of my Aevig Corvid :-) ) arrived on christmas eve..... I was patient enough to let the box sit under the tree until the presents were handed out.

Just replaced the strap on my Stuhrling GMT for something a bit sporty.

Just got this back from the watchmaker. 1920's Movado, given to my Great-Grandfather in 1927 for service in a fraternal organization he belonged to. It was badly smoke damaged in our house fire several years ago, but today winds and runs having just had a thorough cleaning and lubrication. No new parts except the crystal and band. The face and hands are as good as they're going to get. I will be able to pass it down to one of my sons someday. For now, I'm just humbled to have it back, working, in one piece...

My work, dress, and casual watch for the last 15yrs. I swapped out the stainless band after a while, and currently have 5 different Z3 Zulus from natostrapco for it.

Is that the auto with a battery Owen? If so have you had to swap batteries yet?
My blue face automatic stopped working and I'm curious how easy/hard swapping the battery is.

I've never heard of an auto with a battery, and thought "auto" specifically meant a self-winding watch without one. I'm not a watch guy, though, so what I know about them is a drop in the bucket(or ocean!).
Bought a Seiko SKX007J1 when I was in Airborne School at 19, and after the face got knocked loose ~15yrs later, replaced it with the Black Monster. Had a couple others at one point, that I gave away, but I'm going on 50, and have really only worn two watches in my adult life.
Maybe I should copy/paste that into the "stuff that works" thread!

Recently put this together. The venerable Seiko SKX.
Been wanting to build one for some time and it was a lot of fun! There are so many parts and options out there from dials, bezels, bezel rings, crowns, cases, chapter rings, case backs, you name it! There is even a company that now makes titanium cases!
The only real "mod" I did was swapping out the date and date rings on the NH36 hacking movement to match the white font of the bezel ring.
I stuck with a stock Seiko dial and hands (great lume!) but went with a Rolex inspired bezel and ring. The strap is from Artem Straps, really great strap.

Nice Phoibos, they seem to be a good bang for the buck. I was looking at their Great Wall for a while but the colorway I liked wasn´t available anymore.

I love the texture on the dial.
