Beautiful!
One day maybe.
Who am I kidding.
I'm afraid they are taking advantage of you being naïve in this area.
They're saying that this test was adequate with an automatic watch and they are either totally incompetent or lying to you....
Regarding 3) and 4)
I remember you advising me not so long ago, I should buy a Seiko Turtle.
I looked it up, loved it, bought it and kept it, so that wasn't the case with me.
I did ignore...
There's a lot of truth in the comments above. As others have said though, if somebody asks for an opinion they need to be big enough to accept it if that opinion is given for the right reasons and is...
Those sort of sales will slow soon if they haven't already.
The government in china is getting more and more determined to deal with corruption and extravagant behaviour.
I was talking more about the super rich totally changing the value of the upper end rare and collectable pieces.
I would suspect that 20 years ago, most of the Rolex sold in HK weren't sold to the...
It's interesting that nobody has touched on the emerging markets at all.
If, for example, the Chinese were to, out of the blue, take a very keen interest in mechanical watches, the price of the...
Unfortunately, we're talking about mechanical watches here, not property.
We can all guess, but nobody really knows what will happen to the market in 20 or 30 years from now when the current mass...
To have the best chance of a watch holding or increasing it's value in a recession you would need to be buying a top piece in mint condition.
Absolute top end PP and stuff by George Daniels or...
Thanks for taking the time to post.
There's been a few really interesting none Rolex threads recently. Long may it continue.
I like them but don't know anything about them unfortunately.
I own a Seiko Turtle and love it to bits but that's hardly helpful, as apart from the case style, these are likely to be two very...
I've just done a spot of carpet bagging.
Watch now available on eBay for a healthy profit 😊
I've got to admit though, I do really like some of Tudor designs, especially the Palegos and Heritage. Well and truly out of my price range though at the moment.

I didn't mean to come across as dismissive.
I just felt it wasn't comparative, although I suppose very little is, across brands.
I like Longines as a brand and Damasko does nothing for me but at...
Very true and if you compare them to Omega and Rolex there's absolutely no completion. They get beaten hands down in every single department, but I consider them more on a par with Oris, Longines and...
I may be wrong but I didn't think any of those do a single pusher chrono?
I agree that £3000 is pushing it for a CW watch that isn't totally in-house but my point was if you compare like for like,...
You might wait a long time.
It seems that this forum expects every model to be in a half price sale every 6 months, when in fact models are only ever heavily discounted after a couple of years...
Does anybody else think some of these prices are just ludicrous?
There was a thread on the Christopher Ward forum recently where somebody mentioned they were quoted £150 by CW for a service on an...
Well, it's always seemed like a style of watch that an older gentleman would be much more able to pull off. How old are you?
Personally I've always found Brett Easton Ellis to be a really...
When Rolex ceramic bezel insert can sell for 3 or 4 times what my Seiko Turtle cost it just turns me completely off the brand.
I do actually get why people on here covet those watches so much....
That is one gorgeous watch and may sneak in at £1000 or so if they have a black Friday sale again this year.
Wow.
What an amazing trip that must have been. Thanks for taking the time to post.
I don't know why but around half of the pictures didn't load for me, just a white cross in a black box but...
Just checked.
Bremont have been going a decade as well.
This makes no sense with half a story.
OP, you want something from the forum ( god knows what ) but aren't willing to let others know...
I must admit, I think Bremont as well.
He bought it new " from a new company" in 2013.
CW has been going over a decade. How long has Bremont been going?
If they cost less than £200, I'd have thought India.
