Wrist Presents

I'm a south paw
I wear my watch on the right wrist
Fuck who tells you that that isn't on the "right" wrist
Above the bone
Where it sits for a tight fit
Too loose and it's looking sloppy and it might slip
The ice drip's cool but only from the factory
Aftermarket? wouldn't waste my time
Shit's wack to me
My style is right under the cuff, real casually
I watch as it unwinds,
Killing time
That's a casualty
Smart watches telling time more accurate
I strap on a Reverso, now the time's more elegant
10 years ago they said that watches were irrelevant
Then old turns new and everybody's running back to it
Shouts to Federico and Del Ray down in Miami
In the field watching like a hand-me-down Hammy
Ain't no disrespect if it's an Apple, Smith Granny
But H Moser's take on that watch was uncanny
I always check the seconds hand to see if there's a tick
An Automatic sweeps and that just means it's really quick
And they don't need a battery they wind as they get worn
And a manual just means you've gotta wind it in the morn
Spring Drive, that's another story to get into
Accutron has a bunch of fans for the spaceview
The hands tell the time on the dial, or the face
The strap gets attached the the lugs on the case
And usually the case is precious metal or it's stainless
Trying not to scratch it, pain in the anus
That's why companies will make em with ceramic
Cuz it don't scratch, but it's gonna crack if you slam it

Chronograph, that's a fancy name for a stopwatch
Daytona, Speedmaster
Both of them are top notch
But it's a Must, if the money's in the bank
That you show up to the party in a Cartier Tank
You got aspirations of a Rolly on your wrist?
Then go into a shop and they can "put you on the list"
What that really means is you ain't bought enough before
A kind of pompous way of saying "yea but no. there's the door"
You want a statement piece that says
"i got a lot of cash"?
Then get a Richard Mille and hope the market doesn't crash
Decisions can be rash
Put some talcum on that ass
Here's a little bit of history
Welcome to the class
AP did the Royal Oak,
One third of the Trinity
A lot of people think it was the watch that saved the industry
Patek did the Nautilus a couple years later
And both are fucking dope, Gerald Genta's the creator
Vaceron did the verseas, in my opinion
It's the nicest of the 3 but that's a really tough decision
I've been loving watches since the first time we dated
Try to find out why but it's a lil complicated
And something that i learned a while ago always stuck
Buy your watch for yourself cuz nobody gives a fuck
I used to do that shit a lot, care what the other people thought
Try not to care about the people that'll care about your watch
And check for Baldessare, ID Guy, the TimeTeller
Check out watch finder, they're a reputable seller
Check the grey market maybe Chrono 24
If you're okay to skip the store and have it show up at your door
Yea I'm a southpaw
I wear my watch on the right wrist
Fuck who tells you that that isn't on the "right" wrist
Above the bone
Where it sits for a tight fit
Too loose and it's looking sloppy and it might slip
The ice drip's cool but only from the factory
Aftermarket? wouldn't waste my time
Shit's wack to me
My style is right under the cuff, real casually
I watch as it unwinds,
Killing time
That's a casualty
