Wearing the Omega on bracelet today.

Which reminds me - a) I much prefer the look of most watches when they're on their bracelet; b) I really don't like the feel of wearing a bracelet.

Nice, is this a recent acquisition Chuck? The bezel definitely reminds me a bit of a YM (Rolex).

Don't do it. That is a far nicer bremont than the hawkings imho
+1. Crazy idea to sell a watch you like!
Decision made - can’t bring myself to sell it so the Hawkins is a no go. Another Bremont is on the cards but a regular model I can afford without selling an existing.

Oh, and I can’t believe I’m taking buying/selling advice from Paul! (no offence mate) :lol: :lol:

Yep, it certainly is..in fact, it's the only Ebel I own from their 'current' line...purchased from a Movado Company store @ 50% off retail..while not as nice as Discovery watches from the '80s & '90s, I prefer the dial layout to those classics..of course, Ebel has down graded the movement from an ETA 2892 to an ETA 2824-2..what grade it is, I don't know, but it is very smooth to wind as compared to other watches w/ the elabore grade movement..so far, so good!!..and I'm on the lookout for a white dial version, as well... :problem:
