I think that the popularity of the Black Bay 58 is because it is the perfect size for most and even a tad too large for those of us with wrists like drinking straws, bring back 36 mm please, no one...

Lots of people want to post about Rolex, there are whole forums dedicated to them and posts about them get lots of views. This place is for watch nerds and why get cross and downright rude to someone...
As a left hander I always wear my watch on my right hand to give it an easier life so left hander would be my choice.
Give the guy a break. This is a forum to chat about watches and he may have asked before but he might just want more opinions. So here is another opinion. Go straight to Rolex, 36 mm Datejust or...
Just wondering if this is now a permanent feature of the forum or is it just on my computer. It is dammed irritating
Thanks guys for responding to my request and Lukebird for directing me to IFS and Securus. I will check DHL. I used Parcel2go and they said watches not covered by any of their listed shipping...
I have just sold my like new Sinn 656 to someone is Germany. I have sent a watch abroad some years ago and there was no problem with insurance. I have just checked and the Post Office will not cover...
Came across a Comex on eBay is £500,000. Seller says brand new and 2008. That is just not possible is it?
Thank you chaps for all the very helpful suggestions.Personally I am with Mick P, wearing a watch the size of a small clock on your wrist will surely fall out of fashion, they cannot realistically...
A friend of mine asked me to tell him of a prestige brand that has a watch with Arabic numerals. I could only think of the IWC Big Pilot. The chap currently has a Breitling Super Ocean Heritage 46...
I have suddenly started getting lots of pops ups. One for avantisvidio keeps coming up in the left bottom corner. Wondered if it is my computer settings or is anyone else getting them
The thing is the jubilee bracelet is far more comfortable and the reason I wear my datejust more often than my explorer
Actually Der Amf you sound like the arrogant one in all this. A question about servicing should not end up in a slanging match. I have had experience of low cost servicing from one the people...
There is a good display of Tudor watches in a big jewellers in playa blanca including the 58 on a bracelet. The snowflake hour hand and lack of date puts me off
The thing is Tudor are not trying to appeal to WIS like us. They are after the young (under 40s) who admire tattooed ex footballers and singers such as Lady Gaga
Eterna watches are just so unloved. I have owned 4 in the past but now they are just too big at 45 mm. Anything above 40 mm is a no no for me
There is no need for the rudeness of the OP. He got very good advice from an expert who can from my own experience knows what he is talking about. By joining a watch forum like TZ you can learn a lot...
It is an old car and a high price. As with watches - buy the seller. I would want a good service history and an owner who has had it for years with invoices for work done
I have just been lusting after the Universal Polerouters and TriCompax. Such a pity that the brand is now dormant. With such a pedigree they deserve to be resurrected. In the 50's and 60's they...
I too found it an interesting and informative post. Just have to ignore the trolls
I think it is hilarious that people are getting worked up by this. I think even Rolex would be amused too.
Thanks for the replies. I recognise the oval surrounding the name now. Good to see that Charles has not gone for the obvious Patek chronograph. However I wonder why he bothers with a chronograph at...
A couple of weeks ago Prince Charles was featured in the Sunday Times. He was wearing a gold chronograph. Any ideas what it was?
A Ceramic sub would surely not look so battered, date misalignment, no papers and selling on Gumtree really gives the game away.
I used to walk past a jewellers shop on the way home from school in the early 60's. For the years I walked past they had an Eternamatic Kontiki in the window for £45. I wondered how a watch could...
