As today is the feast day of the eponym of the TZ-UK virtual pub and patron saint of England, as well as the anniversary of Shakespeare’s birth and death, let’s see some fine English watches.
I’ll be wearing this for a jaunt down to El Ingles for a roast dinner later. Unfortunately I don’t think that Calocybe gambosa will be featuring amongst the selection of side dishes.

Also the traditional day to look for St George's mushrooms.
Happy St Georges day
This is the only English piece I have
Manufactured the same year as me

Oh no, i have nothing to show on this special occasion.
This is clearly a gap I need to fill.
I've let the side down and will aim to rectify as soon as practicable.

Thanks for the fine contributions, I'll add some more of mine. A W10 hasn't featured yet.
And here are a couple of JW Bensons.
Rev-O has a most enviable collection of English watches, but this is the only day of the week that he's at work
Here's the Smiths version of that Benson:
Not mine, unfortunately

I'm afraid that this is the only one and I've just surprised myself as to how few photos I have of it.

Ashamed to admit I didn't even realise it was St. Georges Day today.
Yes, very little mention of it up in these parts
A lovely sunny day, but where's me beer?
Ah, morale restored.
The girls seemed to struggle with the St. Georges Day concept.
Ashamed to say I had missed this too...
Do feel free to post pictures of Scottish watches.Yes, very little mention of it up in these parts
Pinion Axis2 in special order polished SS with black date wheel (thanks Piers!) is my only English watch.... pub attire tonight!
