This is the first web forum I have ever joined and just reading your story and all the gestures in it is very touching. A great sense of community here.

Hope your dad enjoys the watch once again....

This. [emoji1360]

When I first got my 42mm I couldn't stop wearing it. Currently on an original albeit replacement leather strap as I destroyed the first one accidentally. Was tempted to go NATO...

Thanks for the input everyone, much appreciated. I have taken into consideration all the thoughts and advice and now hopefully see what remains in about a fortnight.

Given that I have no history of selling watches on eBay, what would constitute as a right description?

For those who know what it is and those who don't know, but fancy themselves a timepiece.

What would one suggest, a 99p starting price auction on eBay?

You have read the situation correctly however in that the retail price has made this somewhat difficult.

What makes it more difficult is the aunt who gifted the items has been on the other side of a family feud for years. I remember the good times before this of course, however he has only ever heard...

He is much younger than me and very immature, I am to look after this for him.

So the auction for my brothers piece didn't sell. And I can't start it at 0.99p either as that would be giving it away I'm told. As for mine, I might just end up keeping it I reckon.

But that...

I have an Oris that might be of interest. Have PM'd you details.

I was in a similar situation not long ago. I ended up with one watch costing 2/3 of the kitty and then another costing the remaining 1/3. So two watches.

One I classed as a wear to work only...

It's not that they're bad looking, but I would rather have the cash on something I would wear more often than hardly ever at all.

Besides, with this having been the last of our siblings to get...

Interstellar.. just couldn't catch the raised numerals on this shot.

I would keep mine but probably never wear it, so I would rather sell it and use the funds towards a timepiece I would enjoy.

I get the impression the shape of the watch isn't popular in the UK...

Quick story, there was a wedding in the family some weeks ago and my aunt from abroad gifted my brother and I a watch each on her visit here.

My brother is not into watches at all so has asked me...

Just a quick update, I ended up with this Glycine Combat Classic with a blue dial for a little bit above what I had in the budget.

Thanks, thinking it over.

I already have a pair of Hamilton automatics so want something different.

The £250 is a gift which I want to use to purchase a single piece, it would be easy to just add it to the pot for the...

Sounds tempting, how long a wait is soon?

Am I okay to mention Jomashop here? What's the verdict in terms of reliability?

Seen a Steinhart diver on eBay but current bidding is at £280 and got a...

Hello, I'm stuck with finding a watch for pocket change.

Would like an automatic, with sapphire glass, preferably with a Swiss movement.

Shopped all over Leeds city centre, had a HydroConquest...

Hmm thanks. Yeah, 1983 might seem possible as I remember my dad having visited the region in that year so he could've purchased it whilst out there.

I think it might need a service but not sure as...

Hello, just joined after having being gifted a Citizen watch.

I currently wear a Hamilton Khaki Field Auto and have my eyes on a Longines next, but it was this Citizen that's started me off...
