Airport Watches - Because I saw them in the airport !
Passing through Geneva Airport last week a display caught my eye. Several watches which I did not expect to encounter at the airport. But was happy that I did. SpaceOne, Dennison and (not pictured) Furlan Marri each prominently featured. I didn’t take any...
Thanks so much for this 👍🏻🙏🏻
Not living close to places I would be likely to see these it was great to hear your opinion. The world time especially I find very interesting 👌🏻👍🏻 Final question, did any come home with you? 😁
Haha, no.
I actually think they were maybe cheaper or at worst the same price if I bought online. (Talking about the SpaceOne watches). And I also came away from this trip with verbal intent to place a deposit on a watch which may be delivered in 2030 or thereabout...
Great diversity of pieces, Jay! I really like that stone dial Dennison!
However, with the exception of my Garmin Forerunner 965, quartz movements are also a hard no for me! Safe travels!🥂
Yeah, the stone dials are super cool.
But there are many choices now in the microbrand space for stone dials, and mechanical choices. For something like these, especially in this style of watch case, I think about them like “costume jewelry”. One is only seeking “the look”, and their use case...
Thanks for sharing these photos.
It's interesting to see them on the wrist. Best, Emmanuel
It was nice to be able to strap them one.
I’d seen the SpaceOne watches before, but did not have a chance to try them on. The purple of the Jumping Hour was very cool in person, but comes across more blue in the picture above. That and the WorldTime do sit very very nicely on my smaller wrist. I ...
Am with you on the wearability of the SpaceOne…
Jump hour - mine is in steel which doesn’t sit well with the thick rubber strap. I think a slimmer strap will work better to hold the watch in place. Worldtime - in titanium which wears great due to the lightness (60+ g) and the almost no lug case design....
For me the steel was just a bit top heavy versus what seemed like a lighter fabric strap.
Cool watches no question.
Ronald, right up your street knowing your Urwerk love.
I do think these are very wearable. But also, titanium is the better choice for case material.
Uncertain if there are..
Models I would want not sold out. Cash flow is very bad right now.
Nice dials for sure, but maybe better options to buy them in.
SpaceOne could scratch a certain itch very well.
👍🏻
Thankfully after a crazy month of airplanes, now two more weeks in one place. And then, back to that common favourite city of ours !
