[seikopath]

[donkertraz]

I do miss my black monster. Such a great piece.

And that lume...

[McBeardy]

Fantastic value, had a black monster, then a modded one, then an orange I the bracelet. Miss that one the most. (Think I'll get that back of my dad)

Great watches

[Tokyo Tokei]

Love mine too. All things considered - originality, build, shrouded solid bezel, hooded lugs, caseback, thickest springbars, bracelet, lume and in-house movement - it's one of the world's best watches. At the price, unequivocably the best.

Mine, today :

Does a mini monster count or should I be shot at dawn for debasing the monster thread.

This thread made me think of this short piece of text from a series entitled "Art is Therapy" written by Alain de Botton and which accompanies an exhibit of an everyday office chair at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The language is accessible and some apparently find it patronising, but I enjoyed it nevertheless.


"We’re still oddly flattered and touched by the thought that something we might possess – or might have seen in a friend’s apartment – can have the honour of a place in the Rijksmuseum.
The task of the museum isn’t to show us things that are simply old or rare – that’s only an accidental feature of something more important, which is to show us what is good and can have a power to excite and help us.
Ideally, the things in museums shouldn’t be rare at all. We might be able to buy them in a shop down the road.
We are confused about the merits of rarity. Because good things are in short supply, we might unreasonably conclude that being in short supply is a requirement, a sign, of quality. We start to get impressed by rarity itself. This is an unfortunate habit of mind. Actually we should resent rarity, we should hope instead that what we admire and like is as widely and easily available as a simple office chair.

Art can’t be
about my life."

And what about Frankenmonster?

[Vost]

I sometimes look at it and think that flower would be a better nickname than monster.

That sir is not a monster. It is an ungainly lovechild , an usurper if you will.

Nice one

[nibby]

Stunning. Sold my old one some time ago but could be tempted back by the new design and colour schemes. Where is the best place in the UK to get one?...with the bracelet.

Yorkshire Watches are highly recommended

I got mine from Amazon before the bracelet version of this model was available.

Edit:
You can get it on Amazon with bracelet now.
