The glassbox looks super nice. If I didn't want a dateless chrono, I'd be all over it. Zenith el primero is really impressive but I'm not sold on the design.

I've thought about it, but I have a lot of vintage watches with acrylic and am a bit tired of it getting scratched all the time.

Having a local denim store is a big plus. Otherwise, having a rich(er) friend who's also into raw denim works in a pinch

Same way I don't really care if champagne was produced in the region of Champagne unless the bottle was called "French Champagne"

I don't care about American made as a standard of quality, but I care when your product is called "American Selvedge" and its neither. That being said, I'd accept the name if the jeans were sewn in American like Freenote or 3Sixteen.

I'm planning to get a speedy next month once my annual bonus hits my account. Very indecisive between the white and traditional speedy (with sapphire glass)

Appropriation vs Appreciation - Topic of the day 2/10/25
Well said. If fashion is a mixture of internal signaling (how I like to see myself) and external signaling (how I want others to see me), then an item that makes you unintentionally appear to belong to a different group goes against your external signaling. I used to think I didn't care about stolen valor at all (and still 99% don't), but at some point I saw that Bronson sells dog tags and figured out that was my one limit.

Appropriation vs Appreciation - Topic of the day 2/10/25
Stolen valor wasn't really the issue for me. More annoyance/dissatisfaction from people assuming I'm part of a group that I'm not. I realized it wasn't signaling the way I wanted my outfit to and was more hassle to wear than not. I don't think stolen valor is immoral and don't care about others doing it, it just made me feel a way that goes against my intentions.

Appropriation vs Appreciation - Topic of the day 2/10/25
I don't have too much to contribute here, but awhile back I got a vintage boys scout bandana slide at a thrift store thinking it would be a nice alternative to tying square knots. Well after wearing it to one party and having 5 different guys come up and ask me about whether I was a scout, I decided that I was no longer comfortable wearing it.

Striped denim button-up
I was going to recommend sugar cane as well, they have a lot of stuff like this and used should fit your budget. Vintage PRL has some 1 pocket chambray shirts that are somewhat similar, albeit preppier (and a lot cheaper). This button up, for example
