    As above, my experiences are decades out of date now. I thought tuition fees were standard between universities at roughly £9k per year? Out of interest, what makes up such a big delta between Oxford...

    Same with the Longines...I'm usually someone who prefers luminova for legibility in the watch models I buy, but the blued hands were a real draw on this watch.

    Still on a fixed rate mortgage for 1.5 years. Better to build the mortgage war-chest in a savings account/take the risk of premium bonds rather than pay off that 1.4% loan!

    Many regrets of flipping watches but I can’t think of regrets about something I have or haven’t bought. Maybe not buying a sapphire speedy back in early 2020 that rsteenkamp was selling for £3200 and...

    Agree, I reckon the numebr of Google One subscribers outnumbers the numebr of Nest Aware so they can break even with a less than £60 price increase. Those that use Nest products win. I'm a Google One...

    I think a new Speedy is poor value for money now. I've owned several and I always felt like it was quite a basic watch compared to other chronographs like the Navitimer.
