Hey folks,
My 3 years on OF have netted me a princely 3 vintage Omegas with a sweet Certina on the way. With these few purchases (and my 3570 purchase in 2019), my wife never once questioned anything. “It’s your hobby, what can I say?”, she recently said, and without a hint of passive aggression. I love her. Beautiful, smart and accommodating.
She’s not much of a watch person, per se, and prefers quartz simplicity. She misses her MK chrono that she had for a couple of years; I knew it would pooch out in short order. Still, she loved it so I bought it (held my nose but hey, it was for her, not me).
So...now she sees a Tissot Tradition chrono on leather she likes. It’s a big watch but she likes the style. She refuses to entertain any watch over CDN $5/600 ‘in case she misplaces it or something’. Whatever.... I’m happy to indulge her. She’s 5’9” so could carry off anything up to 38/39mm.
So with that long winded preamble out of the way, what are your thoughts or suggestions on newer quartz chronos? Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
For the record, she’ll be enjoying a milestone birthday in 2022. A 38mm Speedy is in the cards already.
Cheers!
