Relatively new to watches, but I’ve really become addicted to the culture. Almost every aspect of it intrigues me. The current SOTC is only 2 Tags, an Omega AT, and a Seiko. But I’m very curious if my own preferences are unusual, since there are a number of things I really don’t like in a watch. Based on what I’m seeing online (here and other online forums), my preferences seem to be pretty plain, which is fine. Just curious if there are others like me out there. Note, I’m not bashing anything here. Just not my particular taste. Here is my list:

· No bezels

· No gold

· No NATO bands

· No chronograph

· No complications (I can live with a date)

· No numerals for hour markers(neither Arabic nor Roman)

· No skeletons

· No bright colors

· No digital

· No quartz

· No Tanks

I’m not lacking for watches to pine over, but there are definitely a large number of what seem to be very popular watch types that really don’t appeal to me, again which is fine. Thanks

    To me it looks as if you like more minimalist watches, which is totally fine. The newer GS without a power reserve indicator or the quartz GS might fit you, also look into Nomos.

      Thanks, Yes, the GS White Birch Highbeat is on my shortlist. I’ve looked at the Nomos, but doesn’t really appeal to me. I think the super small lugs just don’t really appeal to me visually. But otherwise it looks like a very nice watch.
