Non-shaving related..but a very exciting acquisition for me - my new Slow Watch (JO 17).
Took me twenty-thirty minutes to 'adjust' to how it represents time but it's already second nature and the ability to view the whole day as one rotation on the watch does make a difference.
The leather strap here is the 'roughest' and thickest that they have. The other leather ones are rather thin and buttery soft but I wanted something a bit more 'raw' to go with the stainless steel.
(The 'writing' on the back is from an un-peeled plastic sticker)
So in the span of two weeks I've bought both a wallet and a watch - and the last time I bought either of those were 10+ years ago.
I think I'm all leathered-up for spring and summer to arrive. Really happy with both purchases.

May it be at least another ten years before I need to replace either of them.
