I paid more to service this than I did buying it.

To try and improve the value for money ratio I wear it at least once a week.
PM sent. :thumbsup:
Any chance of a picture or a link?
If you insist.........

Surely you'd want to avoid a green watch for any sort of garden work? If you took it off it would be near impossible to find.
For that reason I would recommend an orange planet ocean, ideally...
Is this the bracelet currently fitted to your watch?

I've been looking for a spare for a while now if you consider selling it...
My uncle uses one on his old range rover. He lives on a farm and the car has no mot, insurance or anything and is just used for moving bits and pieces around the place. It lies around for ages at a...
I can relate to that. My weekend toy is a fairly full on Subaru complete with rock solid chassis, straight through exhaust and a straight cut gearbox.
I have developed a rudimentary sign language...
Price on this one seems to move about a bit but as already mentioned has been cheaper.

I can see why you'd use that in the summer, that colour looks amazing when the sun comes out.
With that information I think you may have just convinced me to open it up and have a look. I'd thought about leaving well alone but curiosity has got the better of me.
I'm not bothered if knowing...
That sounds about right.
I remember taking my lessons on a cg125 with drums. For the emergency stop the instructor said just grab as much brake as you can, there's no way you'll lock up. He was...
Many thanks for the insight.
I did a bit of modest googling but came away with the impression they were merely the jewelers, not the manufacturer. Is there any tell take signs that would confirm...
Drum brakes???
How long does it take to stop that thing?
I'm also interested in this as while I have the original fishbone it does let the watch down a little.
I bought a set of these but have yet to buy a bracelet to go with it.

My grandfather left me a few watches when he passed away almost 20 years ago including a battered seamaster, a tidy 72 certina blue ribbon and a mystery item that has no external markings at all.
...
It is isn't it. The thing is I bought it about eight years ago but now I'm in my 40's I look a little sad in it.
Its a Japanese import and looks exactly how it did when it left the factory however...
Why thank you.
The range rover is a TD6 vogue, my first green oval but I doubt it'll be my last.
The Audi is my wifes (A3 tdi). Completely sensible to balance out my ridiculous selection.
I've been into cars and motorbikes longer than I've been into watches so actually have a bigger collection of them.
The daily

I thought about buying a 007 or 9 for ages but when I saw the 173 I knew that was the one for me. Same watch, movement etc but slightly different cosmetically. Plus the second hand is on the right...
I like it.
To me the cyclops is almost a distraction from the rest of the watch. If / when I ever buy a sub it will be in spite of it not because of it.
Print off the quote and walk into your local dealer with it. Be up front with the salesman and tell him what you want and the best deal you've found so far. If he wants the business and has the...
I've put my garage/garden/diy G Shock in the dishwasher a few times. No problems so far.
