I've wanted a pocketwatch for some time, but whenever I'd gone to price them, they were always more expensive than I could afford. But today there are rather nice sales going on, so I managed to find one for a reasonable price :3 And oh, what a one did I find.

First, let me show you my old watch. I don't like how wristwatches feel, so I've had the kind that clips onto your belt loop for years. My first one was built so that the watch face was upside down when you pick it up on your belt loop (brilliant) but that at least meant that I learned how to read a watch upside down. It eventually died, I believe partially due to a certain incident in which [livejournal.com profile] caitirin tempted me into leaping in the ocean with all my clothes on, and I got a new one with the watch right side up. It's given me many years of good service, but it's just about ticked its last tock, if you know what I mean.

And today, I got a shiny beautiful new pocketwatch :3 I loved it the minute I saw it!
