Unless you pay £550 for it.

Re: Oracle Time x CW Teaser

That is a cracking looking watch, although I'm still reeling from the news that people actually pay for Oracle Time.

Re: C8 Pilot Revival Clean Up

Oh my goodness! I've received a watch before with an abundance of wrist cheese, but... <gags>... hair as well?

I don't let my own watches even get in that state, I don't understand how someone could send a watch out in that condition. Still, it has at least scrubbed up nicely.

Re: New Paulin Neo

The other colours are indeed back, but with different colour dial printing. Most notable is the loss of the date; the old model balanced the date well and the date wheel did at least feature their proprietary font. I feel that not offering a date variant is a mis-step.

Re: Little Black Dress (I mean - DIVER)! - UPDATE

LITTLE BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACK DIVER.... So - i love the C60 pro 600 little black diver, but wearing it brought out even darker thoughts.... i've been hankering for a while after a very black watch. All black. Black case, dial, bezel, strap. I've wondered about the Marloe Pacific and the Formex leg...

Re: Sapphire caseback for my 1970 Speedmaster Mark 2

That looks great Ferg. I’ve been tempted to put something similar on my Hesalite 1861, but the standard case back isn’t too shabby as far as case backs go!
