    I chose the model without complications (big date and moon-phase are not a great deal extra), because it is fairly thin (maybe 9-10mm) and feels very light and unobtrusive on the wrist.
    So far, love it.









    Looks beautiful and high quality. Enjoy it!

    Got this on Monday.



    Instead of a plastic strap it has strap conversions with a cordura 1 piece strap looped through.

    New daily wearer ...

    New daily wearer arrived last night. 1989 CWC G10. Quite pleased with it - though I just noticed this morning that the second hand doesn't quite hit the second marks and that might come to grate on me a bit!

    A dangerous rabbit hole you are about to go down :) see how long it takes to start thinking about getting the original W10.... cracking watch the 29a, still have mine and one of the most enjoyable watches I have owned, good choice!

    A new incoming arrived this morning. Something slightly different and nice to chalk up another brand. I love the way that the seconds sub dial sits nicely between the centre of the dial and the 6. I don't like it when either the 6 is missing or worse is partially chopped off.



    I can even read this dial without my glasses on

    Spur of the moment purchase this afternoon...



    The bezel minute markers are actually in red.

    I have no clue how I managed to not capture that in the photo.

    What is that Rusty, that is a new one on me, never seen one of those before. No doubt a rare forum edition from 10 years ago or more. Some detail would be nice.

    I have a rare Steinhart on its way from Adelaide - should be with me in a week to 10 days.

    Wait and see, but it's a watch with what we believe to be 3 different versions, that I now have identified 5. I will do an article in WT to assist the Steinhart fans when it arrives.

    Very cryptic there lads!! Looking forward to seeing it! You must've found a good source because these never come up on the bay!

    It is most appropriate that my first gold plated watch should arrive in September.

    You wouldn't think that this had been languishing under several fathoms of salty water until recovered by Jim Banana. The brand name is pertinent to my lifestyle and I love the way that the angles catch the light. I'm well chuffed.





    With thanks to all involved in the Jim Banana finale fundraiser.

    I'm not a fan of Cyclops and I even did a PSA on this as it's still hard to find however when I had a 2nd look it really 'popped' in the metal so it came home with me.

    Hey TZ member, I am thinking to buy a Tritium watch. Which model is newer and which brand you will suggest to buy?
    I would like to buy the best tritium watch https://totalguide.org/best-tritium-watch/. Not sure this site review reliable or not but they are suggesting isobrite tritium watch.

    Nice, I like the case on that, some interesting curves and angles. Agree with you about the 6, I suppose it's because they have used a font with contracted height.

    Very pleased that it is with you again and you enjoy it so much but you are going to have to stop taking such nice pics or I will want it back!

    Having said that I am very pleased with the Explorer I got in return, very cool watch.



    I was missing a blue dial though so I couldn’t resist grabbing this while I was shopping yesterday!

    Dangerous game, SC is very sluggish at the moment, although that 60th Speedy should sell in a heartbeat
