Re: New Arrival

Unusual shape to the hour markers, each of which appears to have a different alignment. :-k :-k Looks pretty neat though. Guy Sent from my XPERIA 5 III using Tapatalk The hour markers are part of the theme "Mint Choc Chip", the face depicting the mint icecream and the markers chocolate ch...

Re: Are these even counted as watches?

I have a 3 year old Apple watch and I would never sell it, because every few weeks I charge it up and wear it to work and it convinces me why I wear mechanical watches.
If I didnt have it, I would be tempted every now again to buy a smart watch, only to regret it later.
It works for me.

Not everythink from China is wrong

I have owned this watch, a Perpetual PR-01 for about 3 years and I do not wear it that often but when I do wear it I have a smile on my face. Cannot remember why I sort one out, but I had to wait over a year for it to be made and for a watch costing less than £200 I still admire the workmanship of t...

Re: So if you had to choose only two CW watches....

My white C63 Sealander would have to be one, I re-fall in love with it on a weekly basis, such a near perfect watch. The other would probably be my white Aquitaine (can see a theme here) again an easy going wear.

Re: A Glut of Trade Time C63s

I put my green sealander on Chronos24 for £480 because I do not wear it and I thought it would sell well at that price, just had a message from someone asking whats wrong with the watch because the price is so low, cannot win.

I wish I was brave enough to buy an Isotope, they are cool looking watches, but I'm not (sigh)

Re: New watch, entirely justified!

Watches with stories behind them are what makes collecting watches so special, I bought a Bremont for when I gave my daughters away at her wedding and did not take it out of the box until the day, even though it was psoponed for nearly 2 years because of covid. Lovely story TheGreyMan, all about the...

Re: Which screwdriver size for bracelet C65 Dune

Got advice on this forum to use one of these on my Aquataine bracelet, couldn't have adjusted it without using it.

Re: Rekindling the love for a watch?

Reading the post from Steve about how he has rekindled his love for his Meistersinger has got me thinking. Has anyone else managed to turnaround their feelings for a watch they previously fell out with and if so how did you do it? Personally I have always been of the opinion that if a watch didn’t ...
