Now that I’ve more than a few years of watch collecting under my belt, these common watch features are a stop sign for me:
Integrated bracelets or lug designs that preclude use of third party straps
A case size smaller than 40mm

I’ve recently been hit with the unexpected urge to pick up a new everyday watch to work with business casual outfit.
I’m currently looking at Casio models under $200, and I’ll likely order from Japan or Korea through a friend — better exchange rates there and I can claim a tax refund before heading back to Germany.

I joined at that time after my mom told me that she had promished my dad (shortly before he died) that she would gift me a watch from them. I knew nothing about watches so I joined to learn.
