I bought it at Helios Connaught place.

But I remember walking into another store in a mall shortly afterwards and seeing an even better price. Small difference. Try your luck.

Re: Which watch do you own?

I have been lurking on this thread for quite sometime browsing through the awesome collections our folks have here.
One of the posts caught my attention and I liked the Seiko Samurai model a lot, thanks to oilgascng:

While checking out this watch on the Seiko’s website, I realise that there are multiple variants of this model. The one that stood out for me is Save the Ocean Special Edition

It’s an automatic, sapphire crystal watch with LumiBrite on hands. Boasts a blue dial with 3 Manta Rays (subtly visible in the reality) in the bottom half of the watch.

Re: Which watch do you own?

I wanted a minimalist, reliable watch for wearing to work, so bought this Casio (my 4th Casio) today.

The photo doesn't do justice to the lovely dial colour. Model is Casio Enticer MTP-B145D-2A2VDF - A2199.

Re: Which watch do you own?

I know there are LOTS of Seiko aficionados here. Saw this thoroughly entertaining match up by Teddy Baldassarre. I’ve usually seen this cut across different brands and they’re just some good ol’ fun (don’t take them too seriously). This was the first time I saw a match up within a single brand. For what it’s worth, I absolutely love the ones that ended up in the final two so really did enjoy the full video.

Re: Which watch do you own?

In 1996, Titan launched their SLIM range. I don't exactly remember the month, but it could be sometime around July.
I bought the one I liked on the very first day, and I was so excited that I reached home and shot it on the same evening.

In 2002, Titan, for some reason, changed their slim watch range's name to EDGE.
Again, I picked up one I liked and shot it almost immediately after the purchase. By the way, that red box was from my another favourite watch.. Tissot T Touch.

Edge remains my favourite watch in my collection. It was gifted by my parents after my college. It suits my smallish wrist perfectly.

Looks very nice. What are the dimensions of the watch (case size, ;lug to lug measurements) etc? And what was the sale price?

Thank you!

Dimensions are 40 × 35 × 7.4 mm as per the Casio India site. My wrist isn't very thick, so didn't want something that would look too chunky on it.

MRP is INR 6995, but the retailer sold it to me for INR 6645.

Re: Which watch do you own?

I have a Tag Heuer chronograph automatic that I got back in 2011.

I have my eye on a Tissot chemin des tourelles automatic, but given the hybrid model of working, I don't wear watches when I am at home and my Tag keeps shutting down once I stop wearing it. So I am on the fence whether to get another automatic or to go quartz.

Re: Which watch do you own?

Got Citizen NB1060-12L. It's a Japanese domestic market only model. Asked my friend's brother to bring it for me. From what I read on Reddit, the dial is hand made using silver foil & lacquering technique. Being handmade, no two models are the same. It's very hard to photograph. Costed me 60,000 Rupees.
