Most people own just one good watch, maybe also a wedding present from the wife, even an old beater from university days. I have 16 watches currently and I don’t know which to wear most days. Having a choice of 4 watches for every occasion is a mild form of torture that weakens the will, also a waste of money.
I have long dreamt of that one mechanical watch -the one I will wear most of the time, plus only the requisite G-Shock nondescript CBP beater in tough solar. But seems my life didn’t turn out that way. One on wrist and one in the drawer. The simple life I couldn’t achieve for lack of planning.
And I believe that a lot of things in life are like watches. If you don’t plan ahead and research, you’ll end up poorer, shorthanded, and saddled with misery. That said, each watch is a different experience, and leads down paths to various persuasions, when finally, it consummates in the magnum opus of your life, a best-selling book and side income to look forward to.

Seems I’ve defeated the Covid pushed onto me. No sore throat or cough this morning. No fever either. Unfortunately, the curse of ‘Prince William’ who is dying for revenge on good Christian Asians continues to vex Malaysia. This after Liew witches destroyed many of his subjects. Collective punishment for all Asians. We need ‘failure management’ and to give him ‘emotional damage’.
Still not peaceful enough to write my novella. Also I need a good opening line / vector. Something surreal yet purposeful and direct.

Retrofitted the original strap from my MQ-27 dress onto my JP1060 Aqualand diver with a bit of clipping. Ironically, my smallest watch’s strap is now on one of the largest watches I have! Also discovered how to disable the JPs dive sensors which suck battery. Just switch modes to chronograph and back again afterwards. Now it can be my go-to shower-with watch.
Talked a lot about the coming Tribulation and family issues. How we carry Christ’s / Mary’s bloodline or a portion of it, and how it bestows gifts of Spirit upon us. And that it’s time to clean up our act. To be in that number going up with Jesus or whatever is your prophet. More later…
In a major change of heart, I have decided to wear a very generic yet tough watch which isn’t CBP (cheap black plastic), as my EDC. The honor falls to my humble Baltany, made in China. With sapphire crystal, screw down crown, and 35mm bead blasted case, it was a natural choice to pair with the flea market nylon 2 piece strap. Something smallish, round, with hands on a quality band, metallic-looking. Just right!
