Are you struck by the coolness of dudes stopping in the middle of the street to take iPhone photos of their wrists? Do wonder how you can be more like them? Well, if you like watches then you're well on your way to being a "watch guy." All it really takes is an obsessive interest in these ticking little mechanisms — but the real question is how to get the most out of the hobby.
Watches are simple (and yet complex) little gadgets, but there's a lot involved in collecting and appreciating them. As much as it's a nerdy pursuit steeped in researching obscure reference numbers, it's also a vibrant social scene. What are the best ways to meet fellow enthusiasts, and what the hell is a "Kermit?" How can I remove scratches from a watch case myself, and where should I go to take care of issues that require a trained watchmaker?
These questions and more are answered in our How to Be a Watch Guy series, a collection of advice and information that serves as a reference for the newbie and veteran watch guy alike. It's also a fun read.
