What I Like to See When You Buy Watches

[@goldenskies9884]

I guess now you gotta drive 1hr 30min to the next closest trader joes

[@thetrentmeister]

Citizen will never stick for you. The predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour.

[@Dzamora612]

Totally, also since it’s now mechanic he won’t bond with it the same way

[@michaeledwardlenzi]

This Trader Joes incident is reminiscent of Seinfeld.

I can see Newman having a watch problem

Eating In-N-Out with my 29 year old daughter while I had your channel casted to my TV. The Trader Joe's reference caught her ear. I had to explain I am viewing a watch channel. I find myself back to your channel, away from national politics and the Indiana Fever. The KZbin Algorithm notice me clicking on watch channels. Having turned 60 years old on December 2023 (I may have commented on the channel) I received a Seiko King Samurai. To my wife, I declared my collection complete, finally. September 2024 a week ago, while on a vacation cruise, I browsed the Cartier and then the Omega boutiques ignored, but noticed. When I drifted to the Hublot boutique I was confronted. A male "Vivian Ward" moment, maybe? I left the ship with a Tank Must XL. I confessed to my wife, again... I was wrong. Nothing wrong with a routine of being wrong!

I’m selling lots of my watches McMahon. I did buy a citizen titanium eco drive radio control. It’s gonna be my new daily.

[@folksurvival]

Which model Citizen?

I can identify a pattern in your watch collection compulsion Mr. Mcmahon. Tempted by numerous citizen models and trying them to find a place into your Seiko 5 awesome. The gps green dial, the tactilicious and now this gmt. There is no other way for other brands to infiltrate in the mighty Seiko rotation. Thanks for sharing. Warmest regards from Madrid

[@javiersaturno9689]

Montaigne essays are a pinnacle of must-read pieces. It felt me with warmth that you mentioned them (I think)

I have a watch box for five, my wife bought for me a few years ago. That’s how five is the limit. It’s a maximum, not a minimum. I feel I have too many. How many of us have a smartwatch, garmin or Fitbit which we wear everyday? It’s all a problem. Too many watches, not enough time……..

[@rickzamora1]

I owned and sold a titanium Citizen Wave GPS JDM. The tech was out of this world. I ended up selling it because it just never beat out my mechanical watches for wrist time.

[@The_Real_Edgar_Allen_Poe]

Doxa 300T Professional (orange) is the last watch I’ll purchase. Along side my Doxa is a Breitling Navitimer Fighters Edition

[@timothyfoley3000]

Last week I put a deposit on a Hanhart Protector HD 12. ( Watch #9 ) I am usually very deliberate, slow, careful, about a watch purchase. This watch was a Mike Tyson right hook to my face. I folded like the deck of proverbial cards! I already knew how much cash I had Squirreled away for an emergency such as this. I only held out 4 days from the u tube video (from a utuber we all know and love. ) It's all right. I know this is a everyday watch. Why do I have to love divers and field watches?

[@A_Dude_And_His_Watch78]

I've been looking at the Casio Oceanus because it seems cool but I know I wouldn't keep it. I did just order the SPB317 and put my SPB185 on eBay. One in, one out.

[@mutawi3i]

Ur watch is like a second face, more in the camera than urself 😊😊 Well done mate

[@TimothyW8]

Hey as a former retail employee, I can tell you with confidence that wasn’t in the top 10 list of bad things that happened to them that day. Guarantee they forget all about it.

[@catsteeth]

It's as though Marcus Aurelius was both addicted to watches and hilarious 😂 Googled the Citizen. Wow! Strongly reminded of those Seiko SPB or even GS "in nature" coloured and textured dials. I wish you well - Resistance to the compulsive consumption ✊️

[@woodentulike2no]

The watch you have on your wrist in this video, paired with the Casio GPR H1000, would likely be the only 2 watches you will ever need.

[@PraiseTheLordAlmighthy]

Intergrated bracelets sucks for me. Greetings from Slovenia from another Watch Addict.

[@criose]

Well McMahon I got hit with an suv a week ago while on my motorbike, was wearing the spb213. Bike (brand new Indian Chief bobber) written off broken shoulder but the watch is tip top lol. It sucks I was at a yield waiting to go left, when this Asian guy turning left not looking in front of him, no he had his head turned right while driving straight into me.

[@JeffreyMcMahon]

@@criose speedy recovery

[@criose]

@@JeffreyMcMahon Thankyou mate.

[@timothyfoley3000]

Have you tried Thursday at TJ's?

[@KeithBeacham]

Watches got you like Snuffles the dog? Lol!!

[@patrickmccarthy4089]

Is watch monogamy even a thing? Granted been wearing my Sinn diver constantly night and day for over a month, (procured another NDC strap for it recently), but do look at, hold, wipe, wind my others 6. Understand the one-in one-out rationale, but maybe one needs backups, a jv team, a plan B -- pick a justification. It's out there: the next. The next.

[@willest8480]

New sub here. Love the format, what classes do you teach?

[@JeffreyMcMahon]

@@willest8480 college writing

[@nedflanders3769]

And a class on the rules of watch collecting. 😅

[@jodysilvia2]

Jeff buy her a watch

[@m2pozad]

Unless your Traders is in another time zone, that GPS will be pointless till next summer vacation, McMahon.

[@dunndicles]

Integrated bracelet…hard pass for me. Strap changes are essential here. 🤙🏼

[@leeroyjenkins7141]

Hey mcman, what do you think of the Seiko SBDN053?

[@JeffreyMcMahon]

Good travel watch. I'm not a fan of the plastic shroud, though.

[@tims]

I don’t think I would be happy with an integrated bracelet. I like changing straps too much.

[@anyday82]

Now you gotta change to Whole Foods and spend way more than you need to

[@paulbonaventura4969]

Help me stop watching watch videos. I just learned about watch charts and that’s a kick in the jewels when you see retail vs secondary prices

[@sheldonm9205]

Dude! Stop being a girl and reading too much into it. Just walk into Trader Joe's the next time you go and act like nothing ever happened and when you see that lady just say hi and act like everything's normal and ask her how she's been. She has probably already forgotten about it anyway.

[@juanriv01]

Go ahead and submit to your own principles of no integrated bracelets so that I can emulate the same courage. They have no place in watch addiction counseling sessions. Submit to the rules!! Please , don’t look into the light!!!!

[@drbobsnightmare2521]

McMahon, roll the OEM waffle strap up and put a rubber band around it. Then boil the crap out of it. High rolling boil for around 5 minutes.
