Re: Any apple watch ultra owners out there?

Excuse me from reviving this subject just a couple of months on but I’m considering buying an Apple Ultra or Series 9 in early 2024 so I’m after some additional feedback re. these if possible. My present sports fitness watch (Samsung Galaxy Gear Sport) is maybe 5-6 years old now but still in good co...

Luckily they managed to obtain a new Rolex watch from somewhere to hand over to Rory at the DP World Championships. :wink:

Re: The Golf Topic

Having a spare morning due to sodden or closed golf courses I started looking at some golf YouTube videos and found a series that (I think anyway) gives some helpful advice for course strategy to break 90, 80 etc and also for fixing typical Driver striking issues. The guy’s name is Matt, known as Go...

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread

Popped into a Tag Heuer boutique today to have a look at their latest 39mm glassbox Carrera. Lovely on the wrist, think blue is my favourite. https://content.thewosgroup.com/productimage/17382064/17382064_1.jpg https://www.tagheuer.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-tagheuer-master/default/dw71ef7def...

Re: 2012 Aqua Terra - you did WHAT???!

What a great purchase!

I like the existing model but this model has to be THE Aqua Terra to go for, with the planks in the "classic" direction and the frame around the date.

Lovely watch, excellent choice.

Re: New moon phase watch

I’m not buying, but I definitely wouldn’t decide on this one based on pics or videos alone. How can you know the effect this watch has unless you’re seeing it in person? Maybe it's just me 'cos the BC also didn't do anything for me. I know my thought would be "Oo, a sparkly dial, clever" ...

Just my opinion, of course.
Maybe I'm ready your response wrong but isn't that Sacre-Coeur not Notre Dame?

Re: New moon phase watch

Maybe it's better in real life but for me it looks quite boring in the photos, whether on strap or bracelet.

Re: A new Omega Planet Ocean

Just looking at other ceramic Planet Ocean models, on a like for like basis… F02728A1-82F1-4F0A-B32F-A46FA77976BA.png Bargain! Although it uses a different type of ceramic for the case. A variation of a slogan often used by a well known UK food retailer comes to mind, as regards the new release… :)...

Re: The Golf Topic

Played The Shire on Friday. Weather was forecast to be awful but we avoided all rain until 18 which was a nice bonus. It's a nice, well kept course that is trading heavily on being designed by Seve Ballesteros; otherwise it's not worth the cost if you ask me. Some nice holes where you have to think...

Re: The Golf Topic

Stayed and played at Barnham Broom near Norwich this weekend. Very nice, but the courses were water logged, so if your ever thinking of visiting, and it's been raining, think again. The Valley course was unplayable and the Hills course had 3 Temporary holes. We'll probably end up with some kind of ...

Re: Never Been So Happy To Get Home

Wow, 2 very close calls within a short time of each other. Thankfully you got home safely and all are ok and hopefully the other 2 parties have learnt a lesson particularly the lady with children in the car losing concentration on a tight road. With you having to turn into the verge have you since f...
