Levi’s Mix Tape Watch: A little Tech Nostalgia On Your Wrist

It’s amusing how I have reached a point when I begin to think about my past in terms of the ‘then current’ technology.

Home Needed For Foreign Seiko Credor GCLL997 Moonphase Spring Drive Watch

A sick thing happens when you are involved with watches too much. You begin to anthropomorphize them to a degree; at least I do.
