1 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:12,080 Welcome to this Watch live. Hi, I'm Lydia Winters. 2 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:22,000 And I'm Boo Booey and it's episode 1909. 90. 90 That it's 3 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,040 kind of incredible. I don't know how we got here. 4 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:32,119 We are two weeks away from our 100th episode, and as the little 5 00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:35,640 planner that I am, I have been thinking about what to do to 6 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,320 celebrate 100 episodes. And the podcast. 7 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,640 No, no, that's terrible. Oh my gosh, we're not ending. 8 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,680 It we're not ending No, no, no, we're not ending podcast. 9 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,480 OK no. I've been thinking about how we 10 00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:56,640 could make like 100 Club like, so if you've listened to all 100 11 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,200 episodes that's why I'm I'm I was a former teacher so I'm 12 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,200 giving you two weeks to have to make up your assignments if. 13 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,800 You've missed. Any and then I was thinking 14 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,920 about sending out little cards to everyone who is in the 100 15 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,560 Club. That sounds super fun. 16 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,880 I think that's awesome. I'm going to use a very high 17 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:22,200 tech software thingy that can definitely tell whether or not 18 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,480 people are lying. There there's no way. 19 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,600 This is the honor system and. Also but I have. 20 00:01:27,960 --> 00:01:31,760 Like with this, I have like a tiny bit of bad news for you. 21 00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:34,720 For Wait for me or for our listeners. 22 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,560 No, you Boo. Oh no. 23 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,720 You haven't done 100 episodes of this podcast. 24 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,040 Wait, what? Because the Mindy. 25 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,400 Episode with only Mindy and me. Well then I guess I'm going to 26 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,640 have to do an episode without you next week, and then we have 27 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,960 to do 101. No, wait, 101 Dalmatian. 100 28 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,840 Club is Have you listened to 100 episodes? 29 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:01,840 So yeah. OK. 30 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,520 Yeah. Because you always try back on 31 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,440 the sound. So fair, Fair enough. 32 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,840 Fair enough. So if you want to be part of the 33 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:13,800 100 Club, or maybe you will soon already be on in two weeks we're 34 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,800 going to open it up for addresses and I will send you 35 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,800 something in the mail. In snail mail. 36 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,000 I love it. I love. 37 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,000 Making hearts real. Things can touch and feel like 38 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,800 watches. Swizz, Mamba asks. 39 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,160 Arabic numerals, Roman numerals, or no numerals? 40 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,760 And why? OK, first of all, I absolutely 41 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:44,280 love this question because I haven't thought of it before. 42 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,880 Like I haven't really stopped to think about it. 43 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:54,520 And so we have our Arabic numerals, that's 0123456789. 44 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,680 Those are the numbers that are originally derived from a much 45 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,000 older Indian numbering system and they were introduced to 46 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,480 Europeans from Arab sources, hence the name Arabic numerals. 47 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:12,040 I realized I I very much like watches with Arabic numerals. 48 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,320 Me too. I didn't ever call them Arabic 49 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,360 numerals until I got into the watch world. 50 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,240 I was like, what is everyone talking about? 51 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,200 You mean numbers? I was. 52 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:26,400 Genuinely like. What I was actually confused, 53 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,680 but I was thinking about this because then you also have like 54 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,560 this, the fat like a subsect of that is bregae numerals and so 55 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,240 that's that more like, you know, they still are Arabic numerals 56 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,880 in a bregae style. So I like that kind of, you 57 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,840 know, like there's many different layers. 58 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,760 But are BREGAE numerals a specific typeface or a style of 59 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,920 typeface? I think it's a style of 60 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,320 typeface. I don't think it's a specific 61 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,560 like this is. We should have done a little 62 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,240 tiny bit. No, I have. 63 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,360 I'm. I'm going to say that it's not a 64 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,920 specific font because you have like the one I really love is 65 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:11,080 the Noya Yahida, the NH Type 1D, which has these beautiful 66 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,320 breaking numerals and they're just so gorgeous. 67 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,240 But I don't have any. I have no watch. 68 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,640 I believe I have no watches with bregae numerals. 69 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,440 We each checked each other's collections. 70 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,120 Is that correct, Phil? I didn't check for bregae 71 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,840 numerals that. Wasn't part of the great. 72 00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:28,040 I don't have it. I don't have. 73 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,120 It. I don't think you do. 74 00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:32,200 Neither of us do. No, I know I don't and I don't 75 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,000 think you do. I have looked at that launching 76 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,200 master collection, the new one where they released as 38 or 77 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:45,640 39mm salmon dial with the engraved bregae style numerals. 78 00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:48,880 Really beautiful. But I did not buy it, I just 79 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,400 looked at it. OK, so another thing we have is 80 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,640 Roman numerals. So Roman numerals are a numeral 81 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,640 system that originated in ancient Rome and remain the 82 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,600 usual way of writing numbers throughout Europe well into the 83 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,720 late Middle Ages. The numbers are written with 84 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,800 combinations of letters from the Latin alphabet, each letter with 85 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,480 a fixed integer value. So then you have like the 86 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:20,200 notations IV and IX can be read as one less than five or one 87 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,920 less than 10. And there's one thing that I 88 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,920 found interesting is, although there's a traditional favouring 89 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:31,800 representation of four as four eyes on Roman numeral clocks. 90 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,880 So that's something fun too, like. 91 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,160 And that has made its way into watches as. 92 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,520 Well into watches, yeah. Not always though, it's because 93 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,480 I've seen it done both ways, so. Yeah, that is both ways. 94 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,800 So I really like a lot of designers talk about the 95 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:53,120 weighting of having four eyes as the four. 96 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,680 It can feel very heavy, but it can also feel kind of heavy the 97 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:02,360 opposite way with the I and the V So yes, I also never knew that 98 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,840 about the Latin alphabet. So I've learned a lot just from 99 00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:06,080 this question. Thank you. 100 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:13,280 So it's Mama, this one again. I'm still thinking about Akita 101 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,520 because I will be going to see them for their trunk show 102 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,800 tomorrow are. You excited like how do you 103 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,880 feel? About it I get to I get to meet 104 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,000 him. I get to meet Mark Cho. 105 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:31,000 I get to see all the watches, see new released watches. 106 00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:34,600 I don't know how many they're releasing, maybe one, but I've 107 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,960 been seeing some little teasers on their Instagram. 108 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,800 I'm very, very excited and one that has Roman numerals. 109 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,640 Another one I'm interested in is the type 3A moon phase and it 110 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,120 has the Roman numerals and so I thought that's really cool. 111 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,240 Both the Brega and the Roman would be completely new for me. 112 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,800 That's true, but I really. Like the Arabic one. 113 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,880 So maybe I'll be. Maybe I'll just. 114 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,480 Go I kind of want to take the dial from the type 3 and the 115 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:08,120 case four and put them together. Get out it you. 116 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,640 Stop making your your little hybrid babies. 117 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,720 Can you ask Mr. Hida if he can put these together? 118 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,240 Absolutely will not. Absolutely no application will 119 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,120 be rejected immediately. OK And then the last one, just 120 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,600 we're just going through them first, Arabic, Roman and no 121 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,600 numerals. So that would be a lot of times 122 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,320 you could have indices or you could also have nothing. 123 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,000 So like, I have the Bachelor on Constantine, the Cartier Moose 124 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,640 Tank Moose, and both of them. There's nothing on there. 125 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,320 They're just a plain dial, which I really like, but honestly, I 126 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,200 cannot tell the time. The other day I'm letting my mom 127 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,080 wear my basher on Harmony and I let my sister is going to wear 128 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,240 the date dress while my dad continues through his treatment. 129 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:58,880 And I my mom's like, you set this watch 2 minutes slow and I 130 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,760 thought only two minutes slow. I was so proud of myself. 131 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,040 I'm pretty sure when there's no numerals there that it's very 132 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,640 typically very. Loosey goosey. 133 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,840 Yes, very loosey goosey. She did set it to be the precise 134 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,360 time. She is a VU. 135 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,160 That is the way to be. But then I was reading a 136 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,360 crowning caliber article and it's not just like so you have 137 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,560 no numerals, completely clean, but then with indices you have 138 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,720 stick indices, you have round indices, you have diamond 139 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,360 markers, baton indices, which are just typically a little, a 140 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,640 little more wide than the stick indices. 141 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,400 And also that gives them space to have loom in them. 142 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,919 And then also you have an error marker at the 12, which is 143 00:08:40,919 --> 00:08:45,760 another type of, you know, kind of look most and a lot of times 144 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,000 that's paired with, you know, round indices or stick indices 145 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,080 you know, so then. Oh, go go ahead. 146 00:08:52,680 --> 00:08:57,000 I I was just going to say, like I never thought about it. 147 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:02,360 But I realize now one of the reasons I love the Nomos Club 148 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,280 campus style is that it has all three. 149 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,720 It has all three exactly. I I never thought of it because 150 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,440 I always kind of just thought of it as having Roman and Arabic, 151 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:19,160 but the fact is it it doesn't. It also has sticks for the odd 152 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,400 numbers on the dials, which is pretty cool. 153 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,520 Known as a California dial. But when Nomos does it, they're 154 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,760 inverting it. And then they call it a 155 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,640 bilingual dial, which is then even better when we talk about 156 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,800 this language lesson today, Language and numbers. 157 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,280 Oh my gosh. Lydia, learn something. 158 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,320 Maybe a listener will learn something. 159 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:41,800 Listening to this podcast tonight. 160 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,680 I'm learning a lot going through this. 161 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,760 OK, so then when I decided is that VU would look at my 162 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,520 collection, well OK first I guess to answer the question. 163 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,840 Arabic numerals, Roman numerals or no numerals and why? 164 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:59,040 Do you have a thought on that before I say what your 165 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,280 collection actually looks like? No. 166 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:03,760 What do you mean? Do I have a thought? 167 00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:06,000 Well, no. I mean, do you have one you 168 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,800 think you prefer? Oh yeah, I mean, if you ask me, 169 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:15,760 I prefer Arabic. Oh, yes, yeah, I. 170 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,200 Prefer Arabic. I love them. 171 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,400 I like the look of them. I I talk about them like, yeah, 172 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:23,680 yeah, yeah. Yeah. 173 00:10:23,680 --> 00:10:26,320 OK. So I was going to say that I 174 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,240 would say no numerals for me. OK. 175 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,600 Like that I. You prefer no numerals or you 176 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,360 see? So there's two different 177 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,360 questions here. Is it? 178 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,040 What do we think we prefer, or what do we think we own the most 179 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,080 of? What I think I prefer is no 180 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,000 numerals. And then what I think I own the 181 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,400 most of is no numerals. OK, well, so I actually, but I 182 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,480 think so you said you prefer Arabic numerals and that is 183 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,200 absolutely when. I have done. 184 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,360 When I have done the list, that is absolutely incorrect. 185 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,080 No, but I no. I I prefer Arabic numerals, but 186 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,040 the watches that I like don't have them. 187 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,680 It's not the only criteria for choosing a watch. 188 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,800 So although I love Arabic numerals on a dial, it doesn't 189 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,560 work on every dial and it doesn't work on every watch that 190 00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:14,920 I want. So no, if you ask me what I have 191 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,040 the most of, I would also say none. 192 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:22,560 So for you, 71% of your collection is no. 193 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:31,560 Yes, that's what I thought. 25% is Arabic numerals and 4% is 194 00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:32,960 Roman. OK. 195 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,760 I actually, I think I would have thought of that. 196 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,480 I didn't do yours in percentage. It's a bit of more loosey, 197 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,520 goosey. There's just a lot of circles 198 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,960 that say things like stick and no. 199 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:49,240 OK, well, we know that I have mostly no numerals. 200 00:11:49,680 --> 00:11:55,840 You have mostly no numerals, however you the one that's most 201 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,560 you have two Arabic one is the Tetra with the mix and one is 202 00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:04,040 the Murph and then the club or I guess 3 cause the club campus 203 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,560 has everything. But the thing I thought was most 204 00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:11,280 interesting is once I got down into like the subsets of the no 205 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:17,040 numerals you prefer round indices with an arrow marker at 206 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,720 12. I don't think it's that I prefer 207 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,400 those, it's that I own them and it's because I own a lot of 208 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:29,400 tutor. You do, you do and the GMT. 209 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,800 Is also the same. Actually, yeah. 210 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,040 So my tutor and Rolex. The Oris Momotaro is also the 211 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,960 same, so you actually like a bulk of your collection is 212 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,040 circle indices with the arrow marker. 213 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,400 On the 12th. The most of mine are the baton 214 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,320 indices because I love O PS. That is true. 215 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:55,800 That is absolutely true. I loved this question. 216 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,400 I would really like to know what what make up all of you have 217 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,720 because I think it's just really fun like it it was just really 218 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,400 fun to go through. Yeah, and think about it and vu 219 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,720 you definitely need some more Arabic numeral. 220 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,120 Yes, I do. I really, really do. 221 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,240 I'm gonna work on that, OK? Yordi Nunez asks. 222 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,440 I'm trying to save for one of my favorite watches, but on the way 223 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,200 to it lots of amazing watches appear, some too sweet and less 224 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,520 expensive that make my saving time very very difficult. 225 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:34,040 How do you manage and then said by the way, and it's an image of 226 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,920 ABB 58. ABB 54. 227 00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:38,840 Oh, is it a 54? Yeah. 228 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,640 Well. That's a 54. 229 00:13:41,680 --> 00:13:47,320 That's why it's too. Tiny, OK, we're the worst people 230 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,200 to ask this question. Oh yeah, yeah. 231 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,520 Yeah, because I'm just like. I don't have patience or or 232 00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:55,680 discipline. No patience and discipline. 233 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,240 Neither of those are skill. Like I think this. 234 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,400 Is not unique to us, though. This is the flight of the watch 235 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,120 enthusiast. There's always interesting but 236 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,160 more attainable things along the road to your big goals. 237 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,880 Yes, there absolutely is. They're like, oh, but this is 238 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:16,760 great. I think it's that you have to 239 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:22,840 start thinking about how far is it OK for that goal to be And 240 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,720 when you take these little detours, do like how much time 241 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,400 do they add? That's what I've been trying to 242 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,880 think about. I think absolutely not doing it 243 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,480 though. No, but OK, So there is also 244 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,240 another way to think about this, but there's a danger to it. 245 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,000 OK. So one way to manage is if you 246 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,840 have, you have to keep the mindset that you do want this 247 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,040 big thing. Like you are moving towards this 248 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,640 big thing. And you have to be careful with 249 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,800 the watches that you buy along the way. 250 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:57,920 But you essentially could buy a bunch of watches along the way 251 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:03,280 to your big goal, but you have to buy them at great prices that 252 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,080 you can then later sell them for. 253 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,680 You know you can lose a little bit, but you don't want to lose 254 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,560 too much on them. So most likely buying second 255 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:17,720 hand right? And then later you'll have a big 256 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:22,520 old collection that is equal to the value of the big thing you 257 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,200 want and then you just have to sell them all to buy the big 258 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,240 thing. But the problem is, it's it's so 259 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,560 it's kind of like saving money, right? 260 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,200 Like they become your your bank account, but you get to wear 261 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,160 them on the wrist. The problem is that if you fall 262 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,520 in love with any of them, that sets you back, right? 263 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,880 Because you won't want to sell them. 264 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,240 So that's true, it's more risky. Also you could lose 1 or the 265 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,480 value could go way down. You know, like the it's a 266 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:54,600 riskier way to do it. But it is possible to move 267 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,760 towards your goal and still buy watches along the way, but you 268 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,720 just have to be willing to let them go at the end. 269 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,200 Yeah, I'm not really a letter goer, so I think. 270 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,440 That's what we know. Like hard for me to think about. 271 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,840 You are now becoming a letter goer. 272 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,200 Yes, you have. Committed to culling the 273 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,360 collection and part of that will move towards your nightly 274 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,680 heater. I sold VU the BB 54 that he then 275 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:28,040 gave to me so that was great for me and I sold Vern Watch studies 276 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,080 the bracelet for my Cartier tank moose so. 277 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,440 You're already doing well, I'm. Calling so much. 278 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,280 Just call in every day. The BB 54 I had wanted to buy 279 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,440 for you. You didn't let me and that's why 280 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,880 I had to buy it from you to give to you as an anniversary 281 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,760 present. Yes, but I will say I've been 282 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,240 thinking a lot about this because I have this Naya Ohita 283 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,000 that I'm very, very interested in. 284 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,080 And that would mean that I need to actually, you know, save up 285 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:01,520 for it and stop just casually just getting excited and buying 286 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,520 something which I have tried to slow down. 287 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,160 But I do think like my brother recently gave me for my 288 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:13,319 birthday, a 1987 Swatch, which is I love it so much. 289 00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:17,240 It looks so cool on you. I got so much joy out of it. 290 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,760 Also, he's been listening to the podcast too. 291 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,560 So hey Jeremy, I didn't realize you were in on this. 292 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,640 Also not a not a you know, a watch guy but has started 293 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,080 listening since Mindy and my episode. 294 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:36,240 So he hates you Boo. And this watch that he gave me. 295 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,960 I've been wearing it on my right wrist instead of my left. 296 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:45,040 I've been wearing my Tudor Black Bay 54 on this trip and wearing 297 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:52,160 this adorable 80s Swatch on my my first birth year watch on my 298 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,080 right wrist. And it has brought me so much 299 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,360 joy. And then I thought, a way to 300 00:17:56,360 --> 00:18:01,200 still get the fun. Like, I understood suddenly why 301 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,800 people might buy, you know, like more eBay watches, less 302 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,680 expensive watches where you can spend 50 or $100 on something 303 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:14,160 vintage and fun and small and you get that, like excitement of 304 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,000 a new watch, but you don't have to go all the way to wow, I 305 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,160 bought something huge and I'm so far from my goal so that yeah, 306 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,280 that kind of opened my eyes because so much joy out of it. 307 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,560 Like happy when I look at it, happy when I hear it tick, happy 308 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,400 when I like just a lot of happiness. 309 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:36,760 I I I agree with this. I I haven't bought a sub $100 310 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:42,840 watch in quite a while, but I realized not too long ago that I 311 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,440 get almost the same joy out of a very affordable watch as I do 312 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,200 out of a very expensive one. You know that that initial 313 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,320 feeling which does fade, but that initial feeling of I just 314 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:58,400 got a new watch. It is great even when it's just 315 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:03,400 something small and fun. So that is a good way to kind of 316 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:08,520 quell those temptations but still get something out of it. 317 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,760 Absolutely.
