Came for the Jenny, stayed for the Smiths Caribbean. Love that orange, especially in the low light. 🧡

Great video, very interesting! What constitutes a "Caribbean" watch, I've never heard the term before? (I'm subscribing to your channel, thanks for posting this video!)

Pretty much any watch made by Jenny during this time. Which includes a half dozen brands, maybe many more that are long gone. Fun colors and wacky bezels too.

I bet those watches will also look great with colour-coordinated rubber straps.

Yes, I forgot to mention the Smiths come with them! Color matched fkm tropics.

I just bought a Yellow and Orange Smiths. Both came with a rice bead and color match strap. I wanted a 12 hour bezel drive watch. Seems like quality so far

I bought an orange Smith's Caribbean when they first came out. The bezel on mine is quite hard to turn, it definitely takes away from an otherwise excellent watch.

Where could I find the Smiths Caribbean its really nice?
@lookatwrist2 ай бұрын
Hard to get. It's sold by timefactors. But the store opens only once every two weeks. Sign up to the mailing list.

If the Smith's Caribbean wasn't so thick it would be such a winner. I do not need that level of water resistance, even if I'm swimming in the Caribbean.

Interesting story, but to be honest, if someone can convince me my(any) watch is 10m TRULLY water resistant, guess i'll be fine, for ever...
@lookatwrist7 ай бұрын
Yeah, you only get a watch like this for the story. Or rather, I like how it wears too, but it only had to be 100M of WR and I'd be fine.
