Waited for 2 years... finally caved in and bought it today. 1st Jan 2012. Swatch - Body and Soul... fell in love with it instantly the moment I saw it from the shop 2 years ago... didn't pick it up as it looked a bit small. It's an automatic, skeleton watch (can see the internal gears from the front face).
In an advance age such as today, one really doesn't need a watch to get by as most of us is carrying a smart phone. It has grown from a time telling piece to a decorative item.
I remember where I used to look at my watch every moment I need to know the time. If I forgot to wear watch out one day, I would still feel weird if I hold up my wrist to look.
I stopped wearing my old watch cos I did not remove the strap to adjust the size as it can't fit my arm anymore and felt a bit loose, previously it was too tight that it gripped my wrist till it's all red and sweaty.
After 2 years from then... when I looked at it, I still liked it.. a lot. So, after much hesitation, I bought it. Hopefully it will last me another 10 years. I'm still having the Guess watch my mum bought for me 10 years ago.
10 years, the price is justifiable. :) more pics to come if I can get a good macro lens and snap nicely at home... for now, this is a post to mark the date of purchase.
Happy New Year everyone...
