Absolutely agree with all of this! :thumbsup:
Thanks.
You've just mentioned another of my current pet peeves, acting (cheating) in football! You're right about the women's football. It's currently a purer game and for some time now I've been...
That's sad. Great musician. I loved the Zaragon album.
Good summary Andy.
I've been following F1 since I was a young lad in the late sixties (yes, I am that old) and watching yesterday's race was the closest I've ever come to saying "enough's enough",...
Bit late to this thread, but another vote for ProTech from me. I used them for years when I had my Mercs and they're excellent. Reasonable prices, great service and very knowledgeable.
I've always found Stowa a pleasure to deal with, through four watch purchases and one warranty repair. The only caveat to that is that all my dealings with Stowa were a few years ago. I dealt...
I would be very concerned if I felt immediate resistance to turning the crown clockwise when it's fully pushed in. I speak as a Stowa Flieger owner, but regardless I wouldn't expect that to be the...
With your love of fountain pens?! Shame on you. :-)
Absolutely stunning, all of them. That JLC is gorgeous though.
Thanks for sharing.
Correct! Christmas present about 10 years ago. :-)
Cheers! :-)
Have been tempted by a Zeno once or twice but never got there .....
Thanks. :-)
Lots of low value watches there, with a few that are "expensive" (relative to my means of course), but I love collecting a variety and to be able to wear something different every day....
Having added another new brand (Garmin) yesterday thanks to 'acg' I thought it's time I extracted the current list from my spreadsheet. I never sell watches, so this list only grows, never shrinks!...
That’s really useful information. Thank you so much. I’ve been on the fence about this, but I do find the colour combination very attractive and your feedback is certainly pushing me towards placing...
What's the legibility of this one like please? It's hard to judge from the photos as it seems to vary, depending on the lighting conditions.
Absolutely shocking! Who in their right mind would use a circular date window and spoil a lovely design like that!!
That's a good point. If we're including the HKED stuff, I agree, the 'Bund' is excellent for the money, but I purchased the 'Peacock Classic' too, and that is really lovely. Like a Stowa Marine...
Agreed.
My sons bought me one for my birthday in November and it’s lovely. The combination of ivory dial and blued hands is spot on, and I even like the minimalist packaging!
That sounds very nice!
Based on looks alone, regardless of quality or finish, the ones that don't do it for me -
Most Rolex, in fact oddly enough one of the very few I do like is the Daytona, but I have no desire for...
I've built up quite a collection of fountain pens over the years, including one Montblanc, given to me as a present many years ago. I far prefer my Pelikans to the MB and I even have a couple of...
From personal experience only -
Nomos - agree with all the comments above
Alpina - I have three, and all are very well finished
Ball - The one I have (Trainmaster Legend) is a real stunner....
Watches - well over 100
Fountain pens - well over 100
Cameras - about 35
Aviation and space related books - around 1150! (some signed by the authors, test pilots etc.)
and recently,...
I can wholeheartedly endorse this. Since my first Sofirn purchase in November, the addict in me has resulted in three more Sofirn orders! I already have several Olights and I really like them, but...
