I know this is strange, but I prefer loud watches that I can occasionally hear audibly in quiet environments. I find that it’s kind of calming or grounding for me for some reason. One of my cheapest watches (Orient Bambino V2) has gotten tons of wrist time for me, just because I like how it sounds.
What are your loudest tickers?
70s walthams are super loud my dexter waltham from 1976 tiks the loudest.
