Hands On with the Sō Labs Layer 1

Something that is fundamental to my watch fandom is the simple principle that watches should be fun. As with any other enthusiast driven pursuit, there are corners of this hobby that are taken very seriously. You know what I’m talking about. Internet forums where brands are mocked. Instagram takedowns of potentially sketchy vintage resellers. A culture of constant acquisition and the preening and peacocking that goes along with it. All of these things, in a high enough dosage, can sap the fun right out of watch collecting.
