But the newer watches have a pencil-shaped minute hand, which drives me a little nuts because they used to have the oblong sword/mace theme that the hour hands do, and I prefer the latter. So I’ve been keeping my eyes on used. Another design quirk is the BR text on the straps… which makes me think Baskin Robbins (lived behind one back in the day… you try not getting fat!) and ruins the cool aviation vibe.

But the biggest problem is I have teeny-tiny wrists and big modern watches just make me feel like I’m trying too hard.
