Love this, simple and classic. I have a GMT version with the 9F; great piece of kit and amazing value given the quality. Congrats.

Classic, what model is that?

Arrived a couple of days ago and loving it, blooming hard to take a decent photo of though:

So pretty:

That looks very nice and clean, David. That clasp looks also as a nice piece of enginering.

I bought my daughter the exact same one to learn how to tell the time.

It's her fifth watch.... Wonder who she is coming after?

Careful, it’ll be Rolex for 18th and PP for 21st….

The most special of incomings for me, the Vacheron Constantin Perpetual Calendar Ultra Thin, 18 months for it to arrive but if you asked me for one watch to keep forever, it’s this which is a work of art and incredible craftsmanship when you consider it’s 8.1mm thick…how’s that even possible!

Absolutely stunning craftsmanship.

Congratulations

So pretty:

Yes, yes it is. Simple, clean, crisp, beautifully made - so in other words, watchmaking perfection.

So pretty:

Probably the best Explorer alternative …

[TaketheCannoli]

That's quite a claim. Thanks :)

I regret selling the one I owned. The only negative which may bother some is the lack of a screw down crown and micro adjustment in clasp.

[TaketheCannoli]

I must admit I've been lucky in that my fit is perfect. A push / pull crown means one less thing (screw thread wear) to worry about. Doesn't bother me one bit.

I got the perfect fit as well with the half links, I would have liked a screw down crown though.

The definitely make a decent purchase preowned for around £1000-1200.

Some stunners posted these last few pages but this era of Seiko cases shouldn't be ignored. Quite lovely.
The gold capped ones somehow work also.

Are those diamond markers?

Lucky girl

[M1011]

Thanks Tony, it deserves your photography skills instead of my iPhone!

Side profile for a view on the height, it’s definitely ultra thin

Catching up after a week away. Lots of awesome new additions in the thread, but this one is a literal jaw dropper. What a beauty.

[sickie]

Arrived today and it's mint, makes me wonder why I ever sold my old one over a year ago.

It's a keeper.

Two very difficult incomings on the same day! Special delivery saw the Sinn come at around 11 this morning and then off to the Christopher Ward showroom at 12 to pick up a very bronze Dune C65.

Big Crown Pointer
Has a choo-choo train on the caseback - some ltd edition that I can't spell.

I like that the lume isn't discoloured like on some of the other pointer models.
The strap is nice, cervo volante deerskin with quick release tabs. Thick and supple.

[Ozzie]

A trip to Chester today to bag this beauty, it still had the stickers on!

Really nice. One of those watches where you always wonder why you don’t see more on the forum.

Last Exit watch sold already…

Now new on my wrist a 2015 Sinn Flieger reference 356 SA GB pre owned with a lot of history and signs of wear that runs very accurately on black NATO

Love a 356. Must try one at some point

Oris also make a damn fine looking watch

Very nice, so you was the lucky one

[Skip]

Finally made it in to London on a day when they had models in stock (red, yellow, pale blue, pink) Wasn't going to pay over the odds, and glad I didn't. I am however pleasantly surprised, as its a cool thing, and on the Erika's perfect for a summers day.

I was indeed, although I did agree with the seller to pay a fair price for the Sinn that was more than advertised.

Mini-grail for me today:



Glashutte Senator Cosmopolite in white gold. Noticeably heavy, but still wears very comfortably on my not especially large wrist.

A present from my wife; enjoying it with my favourite wine

Love me a German timepiece. That's lovely.

New arrival for me today, a Namica Shirahama Ultra Blue! Lotta lume on this thing (including the bezel).

I've had many GO's but that's a new one to me. Congratulations - it's beautiful.

Lovely. I have one Glashutte and will be looking to add another one to celebrate a significant event in a few months time.

Picked this up at Heathrow on the way out to Bangkok, WOS in Terminal 4. They also had the Pelagos 39 available to buy.

No discount but they checked in some Bang and Olufsen headphones worth £379

Trying to cut numbers, 3 out this week and to soften the blow this new arrival

I’m flying to New York on Sunday, T5…will keep an eye out as that a great pick up. Do you get VAT off that, or is it full U.K. RRP?

Full UK RRP sadly as there are no longer VAT free watches at Heathrow. They will discount watches that aren't Rolex or Tudor though.

It's a fab watch in a way I totally wasn't expecting and I'll do a write up later. Honestly it's brilliant and the 1st modern mechanical watch that in some ways does a better job than the digital equivalents.

Coming up to 2am here so need some sleep but I'll post some thoughts as to why this is such a good watch and also why you could have this and the standard Pelagos in the collection - I don't thing it is necessarily an either/or decision
