Go for something thin and elegant. Easy to wash and on a bracelet or rubber/silicon strap is best!
A hygienic watch is important for the lock down. Something thin and unobtrusive is also beneficial. Since we're probably moving less than before, a watch that reminds you to do physical activity is also a good thing! An Apple Watch it is!
The "lockdown-watch"... do you have one?
So far, I've been building my watch collection by adding some diversity while I was trying to fill all the gaps. You know what I mean, trying to have a watch for every occasion. I've never spent so much time working from home and it looks like it's going ...
That's very true 😉
I don't necessarily love the look of the date indication, but I've found that I like to to be able to check the date on my watches from time to time. This is even more important on a daily watch.
Ups, sorry, I thought that Echi was referring to my "naked" shot
That's the reason why I mentioned that price was unbeatable The picture of your Air King is indeed gorgeous 👏🏻 ...
Good choice mate!!!
Love it from the release date, in case I would go for a more “exotic” version (ie carbonium or ceramic), that Bvlgari will release at some point (insider news from Bvlgari) In these two long months of house arrest, with only one watch, a big, bold, carbot...
Thanks Luca, what a beauty you have there! 🤤
That's in a whole different category. I still have this gap uncovered, but that's for another day, too serious 😅 I'm glad that you like the Bulgari. I don't love the look of it on my wrist, but I'm definitely attracted by many details of the watch.
To be honest the DB is not in my possession, I posted only some live pics from DB via a friend
on the Bvlgari below a pic of my Finissimo titanium... you should try, and try again... the first time for me was a Finissimo on strap, not bracelet, I didn’t like it... then... Good luck for your search, a never ending journey for most of us Ciao, always...
I love your special edition with the blue markers and hands! 👌🏻
I have tried the normal Ti version and, as I said, it didn't sing to me. I want to try on the GMT Chrono to see what happens. Thanks and stay safe!
No problems
I have no problems at all. I have acces to all my watches, and i am not prisoned at home. They call it in my country an intelligent lockdown. I work at my work, and have 4 watches for 4 situations. I wear a watch at home. 1 work watch, Tissot. 1 dinner an...
Thanks buddy! Good that you can enjoy a less strict lockdown.
If I may ask: which is the difference between work and daily watch? Just curious.
Work and daily
My work watch i do not wear when i not work. I do not work in an office, so it is not a good idea to wear a F.P. Journe or a Patek Philippe were everywhere is iron, machines, thieves, oil, safety belts. My daily watch is actually my free time watch. The w...
If the date is a must, perhaps one of the current "large" Santos de Cartier models might do the trick?
Presuming, that is, that you don't already own one. The basic large size is surprisingly thin, the bracelet works well, and the date window is well-integrated at 6:00. The gradient blue dial is particularly nice-looking, I think, and I like the renderings...
The Santos is a great suggestion, thanks a lot!
I will definitely have a look at the new large model in steel: white, blue and grey. Yours looks awesome! The Cartier Santos is a special watch for me and you'll know why very soon (you inspired me to post something). Cheers!

If you want the Octo Finissimo look, what else can really compete?
But in case you are looking further, a few to consider that you might not find too delicate, although they are more traditional in appearance: Chopard L.U.C XPS, JLC Master Ultra Thin Reserve de Marche, JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual.
Thanks lk, but I had in mind something with bracelet or rubber strap.
Four some reason, I'm not comfortable at home wearing leather straps. Maybe I'm washing my hands to often 😛
At the risk of being a cad
I can trade it in the Hawaiian black market to get from Honolulu to Maui ...
