Still hankering after a high-end or unusual quartz, so still these:

Yes, I know I just sold essentially the same watch, but it was automatic and I really want quartz

i don't mind the concept of a PR, i just don't necessarily like them to be the most prominent feature on the dial beyond the hands.

personally, i'd love a PR on the caseback or visible behind the exhibition back.

This is part of the reason why I like the Nomos Metro. I think their subtle take on a PR is more of what I'd like to see even if it's placement on the dial is a little strange. Score one for the boys at Nomos!

oddly, that's pretty much the only thing i like about the metro (although i wouldn't even mind if the PR was less obnoxiously red). but a circle that fills/empties, to me, is a great way to do the PR.

downer, have you thought about getting a Grand Seiko ?

Many times...

There are very few dealers in UK, and they are too expensive to buy without trying. I have handled one a few years ago, and it was excellent - although that particular model was a bit on the large side.

One day, I will put more effort into finding some to have a proper look.

that's the kind of thing that watch G2Gs were made for.

Such a cool design. I'd give the nod to this though:

I love the opening post describing how Japanese it is

[downer]

Saw it the other day. It's err.. Not my cuppa - to put it mildly.

[Kip]

It is so Japanese, but the style makes me think of Cartier.

[smegwina]

It's so Japanese, but the style makes me think of Meccano! ooh, no. Not for me

Was looking for a black faced diver but can't get passed this one .
Tutima 767-02. 39 mm so a perfect size for me.

[Peteo]

^^^^
Huh, interesting. Somehow, Tutima has managed to completely avoid my radar till now. Interesting stuff and the price isn't all that bad either. Will have to look deeper. Thanks for pointing it out.

For me, today, it's the on-again / off-again relationship with the Nomos Club.

How about one of these



or, if it's a bit large for you, the 41mm version (and yes I do recall that you had an automatic one. It's just a thought).
