    The watch and the camera mostly, but the watch more than anything else. I mean, I love vintage cameras, but, realistically, I’m never going to use one.

    I prefer the left since the sized-up hands have more lume and are more visible at night and easier to see in the day time. Part of why I love the Explorer II.

    Interesting, I favor legibility!

    For the stated reasons I would see the 40mm as more legible also. When I tried the 39 it looked so much smaller on the wrist than the Milgauss or Air King at the time in 40mm. Dial text to me just blends into the background and I honestly don't even see it most times I have a watch on. Even when color is added I still don't see it during normal wear. In pictures or in the box, I see it, but I'm kind of self-programmed to not see it.

    Keep your eye on the prize, you can always purchase a home later.

    If you buy a watch now it will tell you the right time to buy the house?
