As a kid growing up I was always super interested in watches and time. Watches were a big part of my childhood ever since I got my first Casio CA53W-1, that watch amazed me with the amount of functions it had. I can set the time, date, alarm stop watch. The main selling point was that It had a built in calculator as well. I would research and learn more about watches and collect multiple over time. I learned about the different types of watches there are, quartz, mechanical (automatic), digital. The beauty of a mechanical watch is that it uses a tiny coil and gears and a weighted half circle that spins when you wear it and walk around with it. Spinning that weighted half circle winds up the watch and allows it to run from 36hours-168hours depending on the manufacturer of the movement. Over some years my curiosity of watches fell short because education system required me to focus more on exams, classwork, homework and the amount of time I had fell short. I slowly couldn’t keep up with all the new watch releases/ mechanical movement modifications and that made me lose intreset in them.  Recently however due to covid I have been able to catch up on a lot of horology stuff and been able to keep up with it and its brought back memories I had as a kid buying and reading books about watches and how the first clock used to use light to their advantage to predict the time of day it was and there was a huge dome thing that captured the light and this was created way back in 1505. Watches will always interest me because it’s an accessory that comes in so many different styles, brands, materials and really differentiates men from boys. A watch can tell a lot about you swell.
