Hi everybody,
I'd like to start with wishing everybody reading this post an amazing day. My name is Ron, 26 years old and I am from the Netherlands. Currently I am busy with writing my final research paper for law school, so if this post is a lot shorter than what others are writing it's because my fingers are hurting like hell.
Obligatory selfie:
note: Sorry if the picture is big as f***, didn't want to scare you! Currently growing my beard out, because I need to compensate my height compared to my emoticon looking ass big brother 6'9 (203cm).
My reasoning for creating 'watchesdaily' is probably hard to guess, but it's because I'm truly passionate about wristwatches. I think it started way back, on a hot day in France, running from the sun, from airconditioned store to airconditioned store. We ended up in some dark skechty sneakerstore. There suddenly was, a fully bright red casio, you know, the one with buttons on it. A wrist-calculator, instantly adding points to my suburban street-cred. From this point it started to escalate into what some might call an obsession. This all lead to me even starting my own very small watch brand. The first watch I made was featured on Kickstarter and it FAILED. I can't be happier with that failure looking back at it. It taught me so much about business, marketing and my passion. I didn't backdown and made another watch inspired by the Lancia Delta Integrale Evo, which is an very iconic rally car.
Disclaimer: I will never post my own watches, because it's not a promotion page. I'm doing this to share my passion and have a conversation and hopefully will introduce newer or more unknown brands.

In conclusion I will dedicate this account to wristwatches, known brands and unknown brands, but also cheap and horribly (to the point you might cry in a corner or really start to consider selling your kidney) expensive watches. I will give my unfiltered opinion about every watch, and probably also some information about it, just to be ''professional''.
That's it to be honest, fingers are bleeding, and I need to be in a 28 degrees celsius livingroom tomorrow typing another afternoon on a laptop with the temperature that could make me look like a Dali painting.
Kind regards,
Ron
ps. I'm still figuring out all this stuff, I'm sorry if I screwed something up or will screw something up

Wow, I haven't met a watch enthusiast before. I am following you just for that. Your unique subject matter may just build you a niche audience here. Believe it or not, I am looking forward to watches daily.
You're in for a ride, haha! I'll keep the content as light as possible, no super deep technical stuff. It must stay fun. Also I want to use as many of my own pictures, I luckily have some ready.
Sounds like fun. As for me, I am fine with technical stuff!
I'll probably explain it more detailed when it's genuinely something different than normal!
Hi, and welcome!
Here's a short and simple reference guide I put together for new Steemit users especially. It's covers the most basic elements of Steemit that everyone here needs to know about, which are steem, steem dollars, steem power, voting power, followers, vests and witnesses. It also includes links to some very helpful external sites. This is part of it:
And on steem, steem power and steem dollars:

I hope Steemit works out very well for you!
Thank you so much, I'll look into it tomorrow, since it's midnight here!
You're very welcome!

I'm always open to give tips, just ask a question under a post I have, doesn't have to be related to the post. (about the best luxury entree watch etc.) I'll take a look tomorrow, eyes are closing slowly.
Nice !i will check your updates!
Welcome, and congrats on being so close to being doing! Must be a relief?! I remember finishing my MA thesis 2 years ago.. and it was such sweet relief.
You will absolutely love it here. Welcome! Xx, Kay (a singer-songwriter in case you are interested :)
Doesn't feel close yet, feels more like torture at this moment haha! Can't wait till it finally over, my sweet relief will probably feel like a 2 week long hangover. Yes I'll check you out tomorrow, I love every form of art
lol. Yes.. it is a little like that. The adrenaline keeps shooting for a while after even if you're done and don't need it!
Sounds great.. just don't forget! :).
Hope the adrenaline won't keep me up from all the sleep I need to catch up on! No I won't forget, it's nice to know I already have something to distract me from my uni-work tomorrow. Thanks for that haha!
haha no problem! All the best!
