The satisfaction never died. But among the other temptations, it didn't get the wrist time it deserved.
To be frank, from the beginning the Ionica was a watch that I wore less often than I admired tor what it is. It's one ot these pieces that just give you the pleasure of winding up, or enjoying the movement with a loupe on an easy Sunday morning.

Decisions, decisions…..
No firm plan yet, but a number of pretty tempting ideas. I‘ll be posting when things get rolling.

It has found a loving home, new shoes, and hasn't left my wrist since arriving. and hasn't left my wrist since it arrived. ...
Likewise, dear Gob Bluth!
You’re wearing it very well. And I love the casual look with this calf strap!
No regrets, surely? It's good to read that you treat the focus and coherence of your collection seriously enough to let such a longstanding companion go.
I can also understand that you use frequency of use as a basis for decision-making. That's certainly one reasonable criterion. In this respect, your account of the Ionica makes sense. Clearly the case for letting it go finally outweighed the case to keep ...
