That looks amazing, nice work.
Yeah, I could've seen picking it up at 39 - though a vintage blue snowflake sub would've had us lined up around the block at ADs...
Embarrassing? What an odd characterization. Lume on a bezel can be useful - remember when a watch's utility was a factor in its value? It's not right for every bezel -- not even right for every diver...
Agree 100%. I didn't mind the Everest on there, but I thought Commander was a nod to Bond without being too on-the-nose. I'll line up for this watch either way but I like the change to Commander.
This looks classic - I wear the riveted bracelet and don't mind it but do these oyster bracelets ever come up for sale/trade?
Okay, maybe two prototypes, I'll take one too. Seriously, though - I'd never have thought you could fit the diver real estate in 36mm but looking at the Tudor 75090 sub, it's gorgeous. This may not...
yikes.
Interesting comparison - seems to me that especially with the simple 3 - 6 - 9 layout the smaller dial doesn't come off as diminutive/crowded (which would have been my main concern). I'm hoping this...
This question comes from a place of total ignorance about any design history so feel free to disregard it if there's anything sacred about the hands on this; that said, what do you think of...
True, which is why my bank account / marital capital account are glad it's not that size.
That said, this is gorgeous - great choices for hands, bezel design, colors - and matching the BB58's WR...
I got in, and just got a dispatch notice (pleasantly earlier than I'd expected - maybe my order was towards the front of the queue?).
Looking forward to trying out the Baby Willard!
First off, I think this is really a matter of personal taste, but to my taste, the two-tone doesn't have enough support for the gold in the watch head/dial. If the bezel were gold, or there were more...
Same here - this is a no-brainer purchase for me, especially with a textured dial. Can I ask why you'd prefer the fixed bars? I'd queue up for this either way (and whatever the movement, frankly -...
Had the same thought myself - and then immediately figured Rolex marketing would claim having done it first (like they did with summitting Everest)!
Not a daft Q at all. There is, in fact, a forum for sales - you just need to meet a minimum post threshold to view it (50 posts IIRC).
Anyone wearing this on the NTTD / "modern" Bond NATO? I thought it would look sharp on the gilt Everest.
First reference the original Omega version, which seems a bit too muted/vintage-lumey: ...
...been eyeing polar-schemed watches for a while and always thought if the polar Explorer II ever came in 38mm I'd just have to sell a kidney - but this would be perfect.
I've been wanting the Hamilton H76419931 for a while - and figured I'd get it eventually. Hard to say whether this would be my preference without seeing more than renders, but I'd rather have the...
They're mechanical calculators; from the Wikipedia page: "The Curta is a small mechanical calculator developed by Curt Herzstark. The Curta's design is a descendant of Gottfried Leibniz's Stepped...
Others are likely quicker on their phones but I lost out on the previous round while trying to purchase an Everest on my phone; was successful this month on my computer with multiple tabs open...
I thought the same - who cares what u/thegamblershand thinks about the number of orders, and why is it any of u/thegamblershand's (or any of our's) business? And more practically, why would a...
Ha! I just logged onto the site to click "buy" and see if there were a new date in the "not so fast" message - failing that I thought, "maybe someone over on TZ knows..."
And here we are. My...
I didn't, but maybe should have, it is a bear to get in there. I wondered if forcing it through would, over time, fray the ends of the strap. I've never used curved bars - would any 20mm do, or do...
A couple more - on a cheapestnatostraps blue suede and some random single-pass... (also, how're you folks putting images directly in your posts? Always seems to leave me with links. (these are from...
