    When you say “breaking” what do you mean? Stop working? Crack the screen? The band falls off?

    Yes, I wear a garmin. It counts my steps, tells the time, records shit. Before that I wore an analogue.

      It’s got a separate second hand that keeps falling off with bumps, and the rogue hand gets caught in the hour and minute hands. Fixable but doesn’t seem to stick. And it makes me realise I barely ever look at it to tell the time, I just feel naked without it.

        Ok, so it’s shit. Get a decent watch like a Lorus. They are Seiko’s cheaper range but built to last.

        You’re not using your watch because it’s disappointing you.

          It was good back in the day, but I think it’s just old now. It’s been through a few battery replacements and had the glass replaced once. The Horse don’t seem to make watches with separate second hands anymore, so I wonder if it was a known issue.

          I’ll make sure to check out Lorus.

            I love Lorus. Such a stylish, simple, reliable, hardy watch. I have 3. Plus they glow in the dark.
