That’s a beauty!

I’ve always gone for Seiko but this makes me want to try out a citizen.

Thanks for all your words of support and glad you appreciate my watch and its story.

It’s getting a fair amount of wrist time at the moment as I’ve been thinning out my collection.

Today would have been my dad’s 63rd birthday. He passed away last year. When clearing his house I found his old Seiko diver which I hadn’t seen for at least 10 years.

I remember him telling me...

I’m really impressed with your work.

Yeah watch finder offered me half what I want for the watch. Almost a quarter of its current retail price.

I appreciate they have to make a profit but even so!

Went on to Chrono24 and checked it out. Felt a bit unsure about it so I think I’ll wait for the selling fees offer on eBay.

As much as I could do with the money I’d rather use a service I’m...

Great I’ll take look. Thanks for your help

Hi all, due to a change in my circumstances I need to thin out my watch collection.

Where is the best place for me to sell a moderately expensive watch for circa £1500?

I don't have the...

Ah good old Facebook... taking two unrelated events that happened 35 years apart under different circumstances and drawing a comparison.

I've suffered for around 25 years. It used to write off my Summers. My symptoms are dreadful; itchy eyes, sneezing fits, itchy rash in my mouth, wheezing.

I tried everything and the only thing...

No the watch in the original image to start the thread looks fake to me... not the one I've quoted. I'm not overly familiar with this model. The point I was making was that the links don't sit...

Agreed if the price was similar I'd also go for ETA. They are definitely held in higher regard. That is the general consensus that I have heard/read before.

I'm not sure I fully understand why...

Look at the link that joins the end link (at 12 o'clock) this is sticking right out and a real oyster bracelet would sit flush. This is always an easy way to tell a fauxlex at a glance... even the...

Purists will say go for the quartz movement as it is better suited to this type of tool diver. Also the original would have been quartz.

I wanted an auto and have the miyota version which I've...

The way the links on the bracelet are sitting is a dead giveaway

Military black... for stealth around the office.
Really like the world time function on this watch

Thanks I need to invest for next time

Agree, would also not want to let go of anything with sentimental value. Although I'm sure the memory of the holiday will be much better than the watches!

Got it! Scratched the back a little but the between lugs grip and towel did the trick.

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply!...

Thanks Ordo this is helpful... I'm giving it another try using your advice. It is ridiculously tight so much so hat I'm wondering if I'm turning the right way.

It is anti clockwise as I look at...
