To relume a watchco or not?

jeppehh

I’ve been wearing my watchco now for about a week. At first it actually felt a little too ‘new’ for me. My most modern watch until this one is from ‘72 so having a watch with working lume and proper water resistance is strange.

But it’s growing on me and I’m happy that I didn’t get it relumed. Vintage lume is for my vintage watches and this one is not that. It’s a vintage feel with modern functionally.

I still can’t get myself to hold it under running water or wear it showering though. I was at the sea today though and it started raining a bit. So it has seen a bit of action and I was weirdly excited about not tugging my watch under the sleeve of my jacket. 😵‍💫

They really need to bring this watch back. I keep circling back to thinking it’s one of the nicest watches I’ve ever seen.

They did!

They did update it a bit.

To me that is a very different watch. I don’t find the new one very attractive.

How about the Planet Ocean?
