Money - or the lack of it[emoji846]

Thanks for sharing; it looks like something is definitely happening with the Railmaster since the black and silver dial models on bracelet are now both showing as ‘Sorry, your choice is unavailable...
I can’t disagree with you that the battery does rather spoil the looks of the GS given the otherwise nice finishing to the plate.
The Omega is machine made but there has been some effort gone into...
You’re a more patient man than me - I’d have told them to keep it and I’ll buy elsewhere!
Enjoy your watch in good health[emoji846]

I do wish they would scrap the exhibition case back; the SW200-1 is not haute horologie or particularly attractive.
For that one reason it’s not for me [emoji853]

Very late to the thread but reading from #1 I was just thinking that it looks more like a Bexley Bevel than factory original [emoji846]

Back in 1933 Hitler had just become Chancellor of a failing country and was seen by many - both inside and outside Germany - as being a potential national saviour.
As such, many brands were quite...
I hate to disagree but an inanimate object like a watch can be neither good nor evil.
If we agree that the policies of Hitler and the Nazis, like those of Stalin, Mao, Pot, Khan and those behind...
Unfortunately for Hitler and Stalin they fail to match up to the total of around 40 million attributed to Mao which can’t be attributed to WW2; Stalin is possibly more likely to outdo Hitler as he...
Slightly off topic but isn’t every dictator routinely called the most evil person in history by the media?
I’m certainly not a fan of Hitler and deplore the actions of the Nazi regime but it seems...
I recall that there was quite a famous story about the Longines watch that used to belong to von Ribbentrop which was bought by Laurence Marks and turned into a play.

I recently purchased a new Smiths PRS-25 Everest Expedition from Timefactors which arrived within a few days of ordering.
The watch quality is fantastic and it makes a great companion piece for my...
I always regretted selling this one:

If I had to go for another Rolex I’d go for a gently used older model with the 3135 calibre.
Based on my experience I would also avoid the champagne dial / gold hands combination as the lack of...
+1 simply unbeatable quality for the price[emoji106]

Frightening how time creeps up on you isn’t it - as a 1965 vintage my next stop is 60 [emoji33]
The thing is I honestly don’t feel like a 100%, serious, mature adult and often think back to how my...

I was told by an AD that they had to buy everything from Rolex - despite near identical products being available far cheaper on the open market.
If the margins are anything like on their watches I’d...
My understanding was that AD’s had to set aside a set area exclusively for Rolex using fixtures and fittings that had to be purchased from Rolex. One AD told me that this had cost them around £100k...
I think it’s more the stage where Rolex are no longer watches but a simply a brand.
Other manufacturers sell watches and will talk about calibres, complications, innovative technology, new materials...
Sounds like a good compromise [emoji106]
I wonder if the current level of work in their workshop relates to the reported problems with the 32** series movement?

I think the move to the twin flags logo is a great move and highlights the growing brand confidence in line with their quality.
However, I do wish they would stop with the exhibition case backs; the...
I’d probably have gone for option 3 as a colour mismatch would irritate me even more than being stiffed for an extra £64.00 by Rolex. I guess that these parts must cost them less than a tenth the...
