What's your favorite watch to watch?

I find that some of my watches I like to watch the hands move more than others. In fact, on some I lose time and just stare.

My first nice watch was a vintage Grand Seiko hi-beat. 36000 BPH. It's great. I next got a modern Grand Seiko Snowflake. The spring drive and the blue hand are hypnotic.



I really like these watches, but I'm a bigger fan of sports watches. Most of my other watches are chronographs. While I like them a lot, with their small seconds I find them much less enjoyable to just watch them move.


What are all your favorite watches to watch?

I love to watch my 2852. So many facets (dial itself, arrowhead markers, hands, crown, case) that refelct the light. Watch sparkles, love watching it.



Second choice my Pink gold Zenith with blue details

My old man's Tudor has a mesmerising quality to it, probably due to the sweep of the seconds hand. Similar to the one pictured:

I love to watch the slow, long, majestical step of this minutes counter hand, 24° in six seconds at 18,000 bph:





This is a Mathey-Tissot Type 20, the civilian version of the corresponding Breguet Type 20 also manufactured by Mathey-Tissot. The movement is a modified variant of the Valjoux Cal. 222 flyback with fifteen minutes counter.



Have a smooth and slow Sunday,
