    I can’t comment on GS but I have noticed how well the polished hands on my Speedmaster 57 reflect the light, even when the overall light levels are very low. It’s amazingly easy to read. I...

    I know quartz has been ruled out in this instance but for anyone else reading this and looking for ideas, I'll confirm that the Ti Diver One in blue is a cracking daily and holiday watch. I bought...

    Not sure of the reason for this (may even be a pricing error on the web site?) but at the time of writing I've just noticed that the price is currently showing as £80O on their Bader bracelet and the...

    Very much enjoyed my visit to their old factory with a few other forum members a few years ago. Would certainly like to visit "the wing" at some stage but can't make it this week unfortunately. Hope...

    We're discussing spring bars on an internet watch forum. I think most folk would say we passed "taking something too seriously" a long time ago [emoji38]

    What's the cause of it being "snowy" like that? Have never seen a speckled trace quite like that before.

    For many people, the answer to both of those questions is yes. If not "more dangerous things" then certainly more frequent activity then they would do at home. Hiking, swimming, sailing, tennis,...

    Thanks. Yes, that was my first thought actually.

    Although if you can make a convincing "replica" of the rest of the watch, I wouldn't have thought a little laser etching would be too hard? ...

    Yep, that's the one. I've never had a pro so can't compare but I'm finding this one very wearable, even with what I consider to be fairly small wrists. 40mm is generally my top end but I loved the...

    Is this intended to be used on just one watch, or on a few different ones? Any quirky lug-width requirements? Just wondering if a nice quality shark mesh may work?

    Agree with that. A little black paint on those chrono hands would work wonders. Also just spotted the date at 12.... not sure I've seen that on a "mainstream" watch before? Like the look of it...

    Saw those in the email earlier. The blue is a bit bright for my tastes (and I'm ignoring the tenuous nature related tie-ins) but I think the white is a great looking watch.
