What was your first ever watch?

For me, it was a casio, but lost that. But bought this Pulsar shortly afterwards - around 11 years ago. Still remember using it to time all my exams!

Doesn't look like it should be an issue, but pretty sure modern movements have better anti-magnetism protection. For vintage watches, I'd put them further away from quartz et al for precaution.

Top notch watch, underrated

Good point, haven't been doing direct comparisons via specs - just based on the GMT feature alone. Have noticed san Martin GMTs going for half the price. @neloms

I think what's meant is when you move your arm in quick succession and stop, you'll notice the watch case move left to right in motion with the movement inside. I actually like seeing that too, but others would find it annoying

Had one in white/silver. Legibility was an issue, but the black one looks good! Must say the rotor was noticeable, but I didn't mind the movement making itself known on my wrist.
