All are disposable. Including Hermès.

The Hermès bands are really nice (albeit should be given the price). When I upgraded from a series 1 to a 4 last year, I opted for the Hermès model because I wanted the leather band with the deployment clasp. Dresses the watch up and the leather is really soft. My next upgrade in a few years will be a standard model but the bands will still work. No regrets

I haven’t had any problems with it. It doesn’t get a heavy rotation but it’s held up through water, sweat, etc. The deployment clasp really helps the leather from breaking and prematurely wearing out.

I have a Nike Apple Watch for working out (love it for that). Still prefer to wear a real watch as the daily though. I would not spend double for Hermès...

Apple Watch could save your life. It can give you alerts if your heart is not working properly. You have to buy the right version though for those benefits. The latest versions have that. There’s a lot of media on this.

Loving my series 5 Nike. I swap out the rubber band for working out/casual with a brown leather band from Coach for work. Coach also makes a black leather band I believe, for a much cheaper alternative to the Hermès bands

I was listening to a Mufti Menk lecture yesterday on this topic. Surah Nashra is also about burdens we bear. Within this Surah,Allah SWT speaks about how He is the one that granted the cure, purity, and strength after the backs were about to break. Allah SWT takes us to this point to refine us. We never know our capabilities until we are tested and challenged. This is when we realize we can do it and we can get through it 🫶🏻! IA you got this 🫶🏻!

Today I won a raffle for an Omega SMP 300. To show my appreciation to the watch gods, I am letting my current diver, the legendary SKX009 go for the same price as my raffle ticket ($38, shipping included). If anyone is looking for this hugely popular piece (ideally a new collector), hit me up! Currently sized to a 6.75” wrist but comes with all links. All hail the watch gods!

Why would a luxury watch brand make/sell connected or smart watches? What is the business reason for it? To me it just kills the brand value. For instance I was a big fan of Montblanc but after I see their smart watch line up I instantly devalued the brand in general. Same for Tag (tag is questionable anyways), or Breitling. What is your opinion on this topic?

Finally got my hands on one. I was expecting it to feel much cheaper than it does. Definitely still get the quality feel that Swatch is known for. The weight is nothing like a real speedy, but still looks great imo. I went with the Mission to Pluto as I didn’t want one that looks too much like the real thing, and the Mars/Sun versions had the gauche white strap imo. Overall pleased for $260.
