Of all the watches I own, I connect with my two hand wind watches the most. There is something about waking up in the morning and putting a few wind on the watch, felling the spring tighten and setting the crown. Both of my hand wind watches run a tad fast so it’s nice to hack the hand for a few seconds to set the watches perfectly.

Anybody else have hand wind watches that they connect with the most?

I have a number of nice watches that I could wear on a quick, 3 day vacation. Generally our quick vacations involve a beach. I almost always take my Vostok Scuba Dude. It’s one watch that I can always count on and have no worry about being mugged over.
What’s your watch of choice these days?

I have a broken 2804-2 movement.
I would think if I take a 2824-2 movement and remove the auto wind that I would be left with a basic 2804-2 hand wind movement. Has anybody done this or know if the theory is correct?
