Watch it.

I must have the smallest wrists ever. I needed a total of 4 links removed from my new watch. These women at a jewelry store at the mall did it for free - is that normal, or was i supposed to tip them? I usually tip pretty good, the result of dating waitresses, but only when i know i'm supposed to.

I had been admiring my father's watch while i was in Peru for Christmas, and he offered it to me. I couldn't take his watch, so i decided i would buy one, though i haven't owned one since the 80's. After much searching i found the Seiko SKH-202, a kinetic titanium quartz watch in dark grey and golden highlights.

It doesn't do anything fancy, like tell me my heartbeat, or the altitude i'm at, or which direction is north, but it keeps time and the day's number, is 100m water resistant, and should never need a new battery, or wound, so long as i wear it regularly.

It even says 'sport' on it, meaning i can wear it while biking.
