In terms of what I actually buy, I’m quite boring. Stainless steel, titanium at a push; have never taken an interest in precious metals or wood but have been tempted by ceramic and carbon fibre.
With the exception of solar powered variants I have a preference for mechanical rather than quartz movements. I’m not sure how to classify SpringDrive and that Bulova Accutron thing but I think they’re pretty neat.
The watch I find myself wearing the most (by quite a long way) is my white-dial Seamaster Professional.
