Re: CW as a One Brand Collection

The middle ground between the two imho, would be IWC.

Re: CW as a One Brand Collection

From thinning my collection by more than half in the last 12 months, I have some kind of visible goal of what I actually want. Despite looking in to this question quite a bit, I cant quite make CW my 1 brand. If money was no object, Rolex would be the easy choice for me. Theres everything I need and...

Re: Manchester Watch Show 9th November

Pinion have some great offerings.

Slightly smaller cases than works for me, and tbh the only one thats properly blown my fringe back is Guys that he has/had for sale. Rest are a bit vanilla.

Re: 1st class rail versus standard

Sorry for only just seeing this thread Drew. Solid advice as always from people. Although I dont drive passenger trains now (im on freight), I still travel on passenger services fairly long distances 2 or 3 times a week. The main benefit of 1st class is the peace & quiet. You'll be able to enjoy...

Im close to settling on a small collection I am happy with, but it wont be in the near future. At least I finally THINK im close to a number! Of my current 16 wa...
