my chronograph watch died this morning..about an hour before this post is made..
this watch, was a present to me from my father when he went to Kampuchea. Dunno whether it is original or not, but this is a Patek Phillipe chronograph, he had been serving me for almost 2 years now..and now he had to go...
i treasured this watch ever since i got it, maybe due to him being a chronograph as well as the simple yet majestic design. the original strap is damaged due to my over-sweating hand and replaced it with a cheap yet durable strap..
see those corroded surface? now you get the idea on how long he's been with me ;)
sadly he had to go now..
RIP My Watch T_T
(actually, there are some misplaced parts that made up the mechanism, so i don't know if it is repairable or not.as for now, my wrist is a bit more lighter...)

Ouch... I'd lost countless of wristwatches, ranging from a plain Casio to a G-Shock one (last gone-case) over the period of six years.

ReplyDeleteI personally don't use a watch anymore. It's kinda annoying to use since it makes my wrist itchy. ^^;
Nowadays, I just use my handphone or the computer screen in front of my face. Heck, my NDS/PSP can tell me the time as well.
