@dieworkwear FWIW, while David Hockney often wore a swatch (I’ve attached a pic of him wearing a swatch “chronotech” from 1984), that yellow watch isn’t a swatch. Also, David Lynch was a fan of a similar looking yellow swatch.

i've been thinking about what would be a good "one watch" across all wardrobes and i think it's a swatch. a $25k daytona with a suit is vulgar bc it's flashy, out of place, and a transparent display of wealth. but a swatch is fun, playful, and looks at home with everything

Your thoughtfulness is appreciated as always, but I feel like you only prove my point: - If you mainly wear suits and sport coats - If your wardrobe leans a bit more rugged - If your style leans a bit more contemporary and minimalist - If you like classic casual wear "If, then...." Meanwhile, I provide an option that covers all scenarios... And your default response - a datejust - is simply a boring, poor man's Daytona.

@dieworkwear As someone who collects vintage swatches, this isn’t a “women’s” watch, the line is literally called the “gent”, and is Swatch’s unisex line. There *is* however a matching ladies version in 25mm called the “Fruitti”. That eBay listing was mis-labeled.

@ChanningKing Been listening to Sade since 1998, and MST3K was my introduction. During Samson vs the vampire women they riff that one of the vampires looks like Sade and start singing Your Love is King. I was intrigued (as I was with most riffs that went over my head) so I sought out her music

Don’t think I’ve ever been so early to watch a video. Shame it’s for a “Killer Instinct” game…

Ten days out from Star Wars Celebration, and my cosplay outfit is complete. I am going as “The Master Code Breaker”, who was briefly seen in The Last Jedi. I wanted to go in cosplay that was “suit adjacent”, and I already had most of the pieces in my closet. I spent less than $7!

Out running some last minute errands, and buying some snacks for tonight’s Switch 2 unveiling. Hype levels reaching critical, and I’m driving around blasting this to put myself in the mood. Real ones know.

Nintendo Today just updated in Japan, and the final tease before the big reveal is the functionality surrounding the mysterious C button.

@Brian_Ashcraft Some higher ups at Kadokawa went to show him some new digital tools they developed that could display characters with “zombie like” movement, which he took extremely offense to as it was insulting to, like you said, people with movement disabilities.

The old Miyazaki AI clip that’s re-circulating… I reported on it ages ago at my old gig but, and correct me if I’m wrong, that was nearly a decade ago, but wasn’t he also upset because it evoked zero consciousness for people, like his friend, who have difficulty with physical mobility

Rolled up the sleeves, so no cufflinks, but I am wearing a vintage neon Swatch chronograph from 1991.

Today’s extremely high level style super power: with no dimensions or size provided, I was able to identify, merely by eye, a set of two suits for sale online that fit me perfectly. Just studying one grainy pic closely gave me enough info to correctly identify the sizing.

写真は二馬力の玄関前にて。 帰り間際、ナウシカからの歴戦のスタッフさんに撮ってもらいました。 宮さんの髭が無い姿が新鮮です。手入れが面倒になったから全部剃った、と話してました。 コメント #庵野秀明

@dieworkwear Akamine just posted the other day on insta that he is hiring for positions at his atelier, Wonder if he'd allow people to work once a week on like a Sunday, cause I'd totally do it! Akamine-san posted on youtube as part of the "Forza Style" menswear channel, and retired last year
