The oris source of life was what I was interested in when it came down to that price. good work. Pragnells has some great deals and I am seriously considering not getting a 1990 sea dweller from watchmaster that I am down for

i was tempted by a bronze, but am not keen on the 38mm size. i wonder if they will bring some in with a larger discount? i guess not as they all seem to go at 30% off. i would like a bronze gmt.....

it is a 1978 version and arriving on Tuesday hopefully so will upload images soon

Is it just me or is it slightly sad that when buying a new watch one's foremost thought is its resale value.😢 A really good point. At present I own three watches, more than I've ever owned at one time. I didn't buy one based on its resale value. I would argue that when that is your foremost though ...

That is true and why other than Rolex i would not pay full price on any brand no matter what the price unless in very limited supply, like the Sinn i just bought.

at least CW offer good discounts, so on resale you will not lose too much. Farer do not do this.

I’ve also managed to source a speedmaster from my date of birth

Time keeping was fine. It is just that on eBay etc the resale value is much lower than you might expect.

I have had a couple but moved them on. I had an Endeavour and an Endurance. Of the two i preferred the Endeavour, although i don't think that the watch straps fitted that well. I would get another but would not pay full price for it. I think the quality of the cases was pretty good and better (imo) ...

New watch time

i also sold an Omega, so there might be another watch in the next couple of weeks too......

I have just ordered a sinn 104 Basel green dial version so that shall keep me happy for a while ! Due to be delivered tomorrow

Thanks for your comments I will take a look at a couple of Tudor’s but know to my cost that le doesn’t really mean anything so will not pay over the odds. I did have a Pelagos lhd that I thought would be a winner but it wasn’t money wise that is

yes i do like the explorer so it is up there. i currently have an explorer 2 polar which is a keeper. I don't want to spend more than list though, so might join a few lists at various dealerships

i am a bit too much of a snob about japanese quartz watches unless they are G shocks!
