When I have enough money again, I will buy a Nomos Tangente (either with or without date). I tried one on years ago (at Wempe, I think) and it fit beautifully on my wrist. Gorgeous watch with great...

And the Williams Clio. :smile-new:
I'm sort of sad that the Impreza WRX/STi is going, but mainly because what it represented. Once Subaru pulled out of WRC the car had less of a purpose. It didn't...
I had this on a PRS-14 straight from Eddie (i.e. no modifications or servicing). Eddie checked it over and it was absolutely fine, so I think it can just be the ice-cube effect.
I think (but can't...
Or a Sparc-or Kinetic- style mechanical accumulator gizmo? On the one hand it would be silly to spoil a high-tech GPS quartz watch with something mechanical, but it would mean it could look better...
The Braun is a good call. Much more sensibly priced versus the Venturas. Presumably the Braun has cut down on some things when using the Ventura tech, but if the display is as good then it's a bonus....
I think those might be the SBPG, not the SBFG, but I can't say I'm sure of the difference. (One is the Power Design, the other is the Spirit, according to Seiya).
The photos make it look better...
The Astron looks like a good option for analogue. It's a shame the choices seem fairly limited for digital.
I had hoped that Casio could do a digital Edifice or something like that.
The Suunto...
Despite liking mechanical and analogue watches, the watches I wear most are my G-Shock GW-5000 if I'm being casual or my Ventura Sparc RX if I'm being smart.
The G-Shock can handle pretty much...
What era are we living in? You do realise that this is the 21st century where most normal people realise that women can, indeed, drive cars?
When I got married we made a pledge that what's mine is...
With regards to manufacturing in the UK, I thought that all the high-volume, low-cost, boring stuff like toys, mass-market clothes, and perhaps even wellies, has gone to Asia. But we still have loads...
At work I have a few things that I won't cry over too much if they go missing, but are semi-luxury to me. So a couple of fountain pens (albeit just a Lamy Al-Star and an old Sheaffer), a nice...
Made relatively cheaply in the Far East, but their R&D department is in the UK. And they do an awful lot of R&D.
So yes, they're expensive, but there's a reason why they're expensive. That doesn't...
Hmmm, it doesn't look like they're cleaning sidepods or helmets.
I wonder if they're holding the car steady while the car is up on the jacks so the hubs are exactly where the wheelmen expect it to...
Hmmm, I reckon it should be something where there isn't really an equivalent over in the States. So that rules out a good hi-fi system, for example.
So, yes, Marmite is an option. I would have...
It's great when you stop and think about it and remember that there are loads of really, really top notch brands here in Britain. Clothing, alcohol, cars, motorsports, cycling and tons more beside....
Oh yes, I could cope with one of those. Brilliant.
Funny that. To me, they're one of the most attractive parts of the watch.
(Not a criticism in any way. It's just interesting how different tastes can be.)
That is chuffing GORGEOUS!

For me, the NATO doesn't look quite right. It should be bracelet, leather or velcro.
Will the lume be that good in real life? I see that the second hand is in the same place in all the photos, so they could have minute-long exposures if they wanted. Plus of course it'll just have...
Was it "We Love America" day or something?
Am I doomed, then?
Seems like we're reaching the limit of TZ knowledge and research skills, which is surprising! It's an interesting question (and one I don't even have the basic knowledge to help).
Where from? (I may have missed the link.)
