    Has anyone dabbled in vintage Omega Seamasters? And if yes, has anyone purchased from here?

    Home | Authentic Watch Co.

    With this website everything looks legit, all watches are serviced with a one year warranty, so there should be no issues. Just wondering if there's anything I'd need to look out for individual watch wise?
    Can’t help on the website but I have an early 50’s 18ct Seamaster. Mines an unusual one as it’s all 18ct the case, strap and all motives/numbers on dial and it doesn’t have the word Seamaster on dial. It’s a lovely watch (manual) that I don’t wear enough due to both its cash value and sentimental value, it lives in the bank!
  • How resistant is the screen to scratches?
    Johnboy might be better placed as he's had his for longer, but it's Sapphire Crystal glass on the Ultra, and if you look at the online tests, it's about as resistant as you can get, certainly better then a normal Series Apple Watch which I think uses the type of glass you would get on an iPhone

    Touch wood, not a single mark on it thus far. I've scraped it more than a couple of times and my heart dropped thinking I'd scratched it but thank god, nothing so far.  Something to bare in mind, its a flat edge to the casing, where as I believe the normal apple watch has a more rounded edge, may have something to do with it as well.

    They are pukka - you'll have no issues with them at all.
  • You got any ‘lhd’ type watches @bobmonro ?

    No - all right hookers.
  • Strap looks a bit long


  • Quite a nice lump sum of backdated pay came my way this month. Had my eye on one of these for ages. Finally pulled the trigger this evening ♥️
    It fires bullets?

    It’s a Christopher Ward not an Omega with additions from Q.
  • Yeah I don't mind having a good watch

  • Love the trident on the second hand.

    Nice looking watch and great value for money. 

    I was also wearing my CW C60 Trident today 👍🏼
  • Lovely watch, Clem. CW really do make some fantastic watches and the bang for the buck is remarkable, although their price point has been creeping up over the last few years.

    They’ve finally sorted out their ever changing logo too.
  • Bought one of these a couple of months back, great value:



    Also ordered a clemence munro, although am yet to get confirmation of order (sold out in a day).

    I bought two Munros (no surprise) and was lucky to be in the first batch - the black version and also the Ridgeline. Both superb watches for the money.

    Also got one of these beauties when they were first released - similar integrated bracelet genre as your Tissot.

    The Twelve Ti  Christopher Ward

  • Also picked up this Formex Essence 43 recently. 

    Similarly great finishing to CW- and at a similar price point. 




  • Every now and again eBay comes up trumps. Unworn, purchased 3 months ago, sold with the warranty card.....£320 cheaper than the Christopher Ward website. Well pleased.

  • Anyone looked at the Tudor Black Bay 'Inter Miami' with the pink dial....going for crazy money

    Yup. I’ve been on the lookout for a pink dial watch for a while……but can’t stretch to one of these. 

    I have just ordered a watch from Thai ‘super’ micro brand Wise. 

    Reviews for the quality of their watches are universally fantastic so I’m hoping for good things.

    Have to say, I'm not normally one for watches but this is a beauty.  I've just had to have a google to find out what it was.  I love the colour of it.
    Blimey, I might even have to buy this! :)

    You won’t go far wrong with a CW mate. 
  • OMG, you've got me right down a bloody rabbit hole now!!!
  • Be careful mate. It can get a tad expensive.

    Tell me about it! 
    @JohnBoyUK it is indeed the deepest rabbit hole you could possibly encounter.

    Yeah, I have the Christopher Ward bug big time. Love my blue Atoll....so much so that this is out for delivery today 🙈
  • It's my 50th next month and have been dropping some pretty big hints to my good lady as I really want one of these as well!
