I’m Analog-Only When It Comes to Watches
I’m on a one-woman mission to make people stop wearing smart watches and return to analog wristwatches. I just love the aesthetic of wristwatches — not the fancy ones that get discussed at the Geneva watch convention, but basic watches. I personally prefer one with a somewhat wide strap and bright colors and don’t like having the date or any additional dials on the face. I have worn a watch on my left wrist every single day since I was 10 years old, and I own at least a dozen that I currently rotate through, all under $150. You can find them below, as well as many more that have caught my eye.
