My First Grail Watch: James Lamdin Of watches-dealer (And analog/shift)
Welcome back to an original watches-dealer feature, "My First Grail Watch." In this series, we ask prominent people in the watch industry about the first timepiece that they lusted after. Today, we're speaking with one of our own writers, James Lamdin. Along with writing about watches, he's also the founder and CEO of analog/shift, and he's painted us a rather vivid picture of his own grail hunt.watches-dealer (ABTW): Who are you, and what is your relationship to the watch industry?James Lamdin: I am James Lamdin, and in addition to my freelance writing for ABTW and other outlets, I am the founder and CEO of analog/shift, an online boutique with a curated selection of vintage timepieces. In other words, I work on both sides of the timepiece industry, covering new watches and current events while wearing my writer's cap, as well as buying, selling, and brokering vintage wrist and pocket watches for individual and corporate clients.

A timepiece for my graduation $500-$700??
Good Evening All!I am a first generation college student and I will be graduating in April of this year with my graduate degree! I fathomed the thought of purchasing a class ring but quickly dismissed the idea as I know it won't be something I would wear much, if at all.
