Hodinkee has this great series “Talking Watches” where they interview notable people about their watch collections. (Highly recommend checking it out — not right now, but soon.) They recently did a bracket to determine their readers’ favorite video, and the winner was none other than John Mayer talking about his truly outstanding selection of Rolex and Patek Philippe timepieces. Doesn’t matter if you like his music or not, his taste in watches is unimpeachable.
While you may not be able to shell out for more than one Rolex or Patek, if any at all, there is another watch Mayer swears by that’s eminently more affordable, especially today. That would be the beefy, mud-resistant, apocalypse-ready G-Shock Mudmaster, three versions of which are 25% off at Nordstrom.
There’s the more economical, battery-powered GG1000-1A3 model which is down from $350 to just $262.50 and available in both green and black, as well as the higher-powered atomic GWG1000-1A3 that’s cut from $800 down to $600. If you’ve been looking to branch out from the monotonous leather straps and minimalist dials, this is a good time to make the jump.
