    I do like watching, send me the time and the address, do I need to bring my own tissues?

    In all seriousness, I do like watches but not the type that are for people who have small penises, you know watch face the size of your fist and with big metal strap and can you tell the time in every language around the globe and can tell you the temperature on Pluto next time yer visiting.

    Prefer rectangle face with period numbers and a non leather and non metal strap.

    Not sure rubber straps work with them though!
    The Cartier is real fave of mine. Beautiful watch. 
  • I know nothing about watches. Doing a tidy up and found two old watches, which was given to me back in the early 00’s for some design work I did.
    Are these worth anything? Wouldn’t wear them myself, as not my style.

    Ok…..last one for a while. 
    Ridiculous value and I love the retro styling of it. 
    A proper everyday wearer. 
    They are very good value and the integrated bracelet style is certainly in fashion right now.

    Another one that is a lot of bang for the buck is the Maen Manhattan.

    F Hands-On The New MAEN Manhattan 37  Sleek 70s Glamour
    Really like that, not dissimilar to the slightly higher price Nautilus.

    Yes - about 150 times higher on the pre-owned market.

    I've hovered over the purchase button on the Maen many times.
    Having sold a couple of rolexes to fund some house work I might just pick one of those up.
    How much you paying your cleaner?
    She's very good :-)

  • Anyone want to buy me this original 50s beauty? Only $10k...



    Or maybe a repro at €580?

    This one has the 7T62 movement like the renown Flightmaster. Very nice! Could fetch about £100 on eBay if it's in full working order. Probably just needs a new battery.

  • Ok…….so I got reeled in for one more. 

    40mm Longines HydroConquest in grey on rubber strap. 

    Was a toss up between this one and the same in green. 
    Grey was the right choice I think mate 👌🏼
  • Got to be brave to wear a high end watch out these days loads of people getting mugged these days for them

    I know 3 people who've been done in the past 6 months, about £100k of watches!

    Love the Omega Swatches!
  • The beauty of the omega swatch is they are a collaboration and only cost £220 so hopefully not getting mugged anytime soon! They are quite rare though only 3 stores in the Uk sell them and they are hardly ever in stock 
  • We gave this to our son on his 50th birthday

    I like the Moons Swatches. The Oxford Street shop is the best bet for stock. Went int here a couple of weeks ago and they had 5 varities in stock. I want either the Mecury or Earth variant and unfortunately they didn't have either - very nearly bought the Jupiter.

    Only thing I don't like about them is the strap, but there are loads of after market options to replace the original.
  • And here is the aforementioned Christopher Ward ‘The Twelve’. 40mm in Glacier Blue.

  • Was never going to be able to afford a Royal Oak or Nautilus - so decided to settle for this. 

    42mm Baumé & Mercier Riviera  with black opaque dial. I really like it. 

    It seems that Christopher Ward have an integrated bracelet sports watch coming out this week - so will be interested to see what that’s like. 

    Love that @SuedeAdidas

    I have the blue titanium one on order - due end of May :)

  • Better movement in the titanium but I’m not the greatest fan of the patina of titanium after a few months. 

    My Pelagos has got quite dark in the 8 months I’ve had it.

    serica 4512 I got a couple of weeks ago. Nice 37.7 mm field watch. I want to put a NATO type strap on it but good quality with Velcro. Any recommendations anyone please?

    Already an alert in my diary.

    Decent spec for the price and Clemence, although a relatively new company, have developed a good reputation - Scottish watch companies are building a very good profile and anOrdain in particular are superb (I am a customer!).
