A lot of people wear speedmasters because the Apollo astronauts wore them. This is mostly in jest, but if people really wanted to emulate those Apollo astronaut icons, they would choose the most practical options which would be quartz watches, not mechanical watches. They’d be brighter, have better battery, keep better time, more durable, etc
But in seriousness, I totally respect the history and craftsmanship of these watches, just not their practicality in modern day.
Stupid fucking take.
The watches of yesteryears were that time’s G-shocks etc.
Getting a tool that is 100 years from the future?
Yea I’ll take it.
