Re: Non CW of the Day
New to me , and favoritest for the moment, is this DIY Watch Club offering from a few years ago...
Ads for the DIY Watch Club keep popping up in my FB feed, and I wanted to know more. When this one came up on eBay at a ridiculous price, I had to satisfy my curiosity. Very impressed with the look and feel, but boy, does it have some serious debris in-between the dial and crystal...
Besides a cleaning and service, this one will remain unmodified for some time, I think. I simply love the effect the dome crystal has on the convex dial; my first experience with this phenomenon...

Re: Non CW of the Day
I’m still struggling to find any quirks or flaws with this watch. I’ve worn it pretty much daily since I bought it but mainly at home.
If it didn’t say Rolex on the dial it could be my one watch. The reason it isn't is because while I’m sure hardly anyone will ever notice, I am conscious of the message it might send out, especially at work.

Trust me Iain, it’s very rare that anyone ever notices, unless you are in a dodgy placeiain wrote: ↑Fri Nov 10, 2023 5:41 pm I’m still struggling to find any quirks or flaws with this watch. I’ve worn it pretty much daily since I bought it but mainly at home.

Re: Non CW of the Day
^^^^ Joking aside, I know I’m over thinking things but this is the only watch I’ve ever felt uncomfortable while wearing out. It’s small and discrete unlike some of the IWC beasts I’ve happily worn to work without thinking about it.

Re: Non CW of the Day
You said it yourself, over thinking, unless you are a WIS or a robber, not many people notice. Don’t get me wrong, I would never wear a Rolex walking around London etc but I can’t recall a time when anyone has ever noticed, I have a terrible memory so that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened
. Everyone at work knows I like watches, on the odd occasion I have worn a Rolex to work and nobody has noticed, which to be honest p*££&d me off a bit . Maybe Neil will back me up on this Just wear it, mate
Re: Non CW of the Day
Don’t say that, it could remove the need for all my other watches…….
