If I could pick one watch that makes me happier than most of my luxury iconic watches, it's this one. Today I discuss why a humble $40 Casio watch brings me so much enjoyment, with an introspective deep dive covering everything from design, pop culture, and historic achievements in professional diving by NASA's aquanauts, to a more profound understanding of the philosophy of watch collecting, its emotional significance, and the meaning behind a timepiece that I feel every collection should have. What do you think about the watches in this video? And what's your happy place watch? Please share in the comments!

Spoilers!: The watch I always reach for when the going gets tough and I need a quick fix of motivation and/or inspiration, is the Casio DW-290 aka the Mission Impossible watch. I'd choose this over almost any other watch, and I consider it as close to perfection as it gets.
