I've mainly worn sports watches for the past several years (see my sig), but my recently procured vintage Omega has really changed my mind about dress watches. I foresee a few more entering my...
Shame, would have been fun to watch.
I prefer the BR03 myself, but of those you posted, definitely the first.
Slightly ridiculous perhaps, but during term-time I set them according to the school bells. I don't know what clock those are based on, but it's not particularly accurate and I'd rather rely on my...
I suppose when the teams spend millions shaving every last gram off the car, it seems silly to put on 200g automatic which they'll hardly have the opportunity to look at during a race anyway......
I also drive a Jaguar X-Type. I'm wearing my Omega Seamaster Chronograph today... have been wearing the Omega for the past couple of weeks actually. Great daily beater.
Thanks for the Breitling JP link, there goes my strap budget!
Agree with previous posts - Breitlings are very nice and the different models are distinct enough to make it worth trying them all on....
The first B is always special! Congrats.
Well, except for the lens elements obviously... and for me that corresponds to the crystal. I don't like a scratched up crystal, especially if it's got an AR coat.
Thought this was interesting - not surprising, but insightful about sponsors and who wears their watch.

Fast forward to 13:45 when he...
Particularly important with Breitlings as the AR is typically easier to scuff than the sapphire crystal. Nice photo of the Steelfish.
It would be ironic to run XP within a virtual machine from Windows 7 running within a virtual machine on OS X. :mrgreen:
Is it fully backwards compatible with XP / Vista? Wondering if it's worth putting on my iMac with Parallels.
That's what I would have thought... but then if it's 28.8kbph or 21.6kbph then would the chronograph hand then be accurate to less than 1/10s? I suppose the Vernier scale does still mean it will be...
We use Vista at work and I have it on my work laptop, but I've stuck with XP on my home laptops and OS X on my iMac. Haven't tried Windows 7 but most of the people I know who have say it's better...
I bough it second hand but ..., you can ask him (Harold) at yobokies@yahoo.com.hk
I hope it helps,

Cheers for that - I'll pop him an email. Would definitely love to get AR on a...
That Colt has a very similar bezel to my Steelfish - I've had no problems with mine apart from losing a screw. From the front, it looks fine... and I wore it as a daily wear for several months and...
Not a FF fan myself, but I thought the concept watch looked kind of cool (the one on top):

Like the Omega PO?
Why don't you test the rules and find out which one works? :twisted:

I don't have enough watches to test that one, certainly not enough that I'd want to sell. :)
Wow, looks very sharp with a CF strap! Works nicely with the bezel and dial.
If it were 36,000 bph, would it not say "Ultra-Chron" on the dial? Not sure that they made a chronographic Cal. 43x, did they?

For those of you worried about sending your precious timepieces overseas, I am happy to provide the same service here in the UK. :mrgreen:
Looks like you need to be a subscriber to read the full article.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next race - it should be interesting. I think he'll be able to learn the car and racetrack on...
I don't have enough watches that this would be a problem for me, but just as a matter of clarity...
3 watches a week. Does that mean posting 3 adverts a week, or does that mean that at any one...
