Bought just a month ago, it was a purchase that was love at first sight.
My father was a career soldier and had quite a few watches including a Luminox that was lost during an operation.
When I saw this black Citizen in the window, it clicked in my head.
A diver's look with a tractor heart, that's what I call it because it's waterproof to 100m without a screw-down crown powered by a Miyota 8200 (+15 seconds per day for me)
Comfortable rubber strap but quite hard the first few times I wore this watch.
Quite large size but it's OK (46.2mm).
Sober but original at the same time with its orange minute hand.
Very well-made luminescent hands and indexes.
For €199 (I got it a little cheaper because it was out of the catalog), it's for me a very good alternative to the Seiko 5 sport.

The Japanese tractor that thinks it's a diver

This is my second INOX, titanium version.
43 mm watch, quite imposing but comfortable and light thanks to the titanium.
Fun with its orange strap but dirty but quite easy to clean.
Water-resistant to 200m and screwed crown with the Victorinox logo.
Be careful if you have a small wrist because it is not discreet!!
It is a certain price for a quartz watch but I do not regret it because it is strong, it is the Swiss G-Shock.
Bought for the birth of my second daughter.
I love it.
It is a quartz with the Ronda 715 module.

Victorinox INOX TITANIUM 

Bought two weeks ago, real love at first sight for this Japanese, a pilot field watch that has a retro look and cushion shape.
This discreet Japanese amazes me day by day with its differen bevels and its mirror and brushed polishing.
Slightly sunny gray dial gives it an almost neon-retro dress watch style with its 42mm case but does not look huge when worn.
Powered by a very reliable and proven Miyota 8210 that takes barely 10 seconds/day.
An impressive quality/price ratio.
Not very heavy and very comfortable on the wrist.
The price is ridiculous given the quality of this model: €179
I went for it and I enjoy myself day by day with this marvel.

Field watch for all sorts of Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi

Bought for my dad, this Swatch is fun because hidden behind, small goldfish which is my dad's astrological sign and decorated with a tartan, to remind him of his love for England.
Now, it is part of my collection because my dad is no longer here.
It is a watch that has an importance for me because it was the last gift I had given him.

Tartan swatch

I bought this watch because I knew this brand. I have had a Victorinox knife for 31 years and it follows me everywhere I travel.
I have become addicted to this fantastic brand because since then I have bought 3 others.
Official watch of the New York firefighters rescue divers and official watch of the Swiss firefighters.


Watch bought for the birth of my daughter

Small Swatch as an inheritance that belonged to my dad.
A classic style with an atypical two-tone strap.
I wear it either with a hoodie or a classic shirt.
Light and comfortable to wear.
Very classic for a Swatch.
A little touch of originality with the big blue hand and the date.
I wear it from time to time thinking of my dear dad…

Swatch chrono black & White 

3rd INOX in my humble collection.
I was going to buy the limited edition automatic version or the normal automatic version but no longer available anywhere and I absolutely wanted this specific model with the red numbers.
This is the quartz version that has a Ronda 715.
Carbon case, stainless steel screwed back.
Screwed crown with the Victorinox logo.
Rubber strap with pin buckle.
Water-resistant 200m.
It is quite a large size: 43mm but in black, it is not so huge.
I bought it for my wife's cancer remission, what could be more logical than an indestructible INOX to represent my wife's strength of will to survive her illness.
Victorinox is an excellent brand that manufactures everything in-house.
It is a certain price for a quartz watch but what a great watch.
Oh I forgot: indexes, numbers and hands with super luminova.
I recommend this brand and all the models, with my eyes closed (well, open them to admire the curves of these watches).
For me, the G-Shock Suisse…

Victorinox INOX Carbon 

My late dad's engagement watch
What memories with this watch
When I wear it, it brings back my childhood and memories of a military dad who was a big guy who was afraid of nothing!!
But with me he was just a fair and teasing pair.
To get back to the watch, it is a Compressor model so rotating bezel inside the case which is 44 mm
Atypical design
It would need a little revision because it is a little late
My only vintage in my collection
Not a common watch


Tissot T12 compressor de 1976

Little gift from my dad for my 40th birthday
I like this abstract side of this Swatch chrono but not very readable with these colors and lines.
Comfortable and light.
It is fun to wear
Quite imposing as a Swatch but it fits on my wrist
It is a watch that I particularly like because it is the last watch offered by my late friend dad
