I liked the Speedy's carbon fibre dial and the split second chrono was neat but ultimately I choose...

Back in 2007 I had to choose which watch to buy from the two you see below. Of course there were plenty of other choices but I had whittled the abundance on offer down to these two finalists.

Well it's a yes for me - since buying this little beastie I haven't worn anything else. What I really like about it is that I can go to the pub sans wallet & mobile and still pay for my beer and...

Birthday present to myself. Loving it - there's a lot more to play with than any other watch I own including my G-shocks.

The Saxonia has a very clean and simple design but it isn't very interesting and I hate to say it but the great unwashed will think it's a cheap $10 quartz.

This is my Seiko G757-5000 that I bought new from Dixons in the early 80's. I was lucky as I was just browsing and saw the watch sitting on a shelf behind the counter. I asked how much it was but...

I thought one of these may make a nice beater for the summer so started looking around for one. I was lucky with the timing of an Invicta EU sale and got a black/orange version for 99 Euro - I think...

Thanks for the replies gentlemen, I've taken all your points on board and moved my solars away from the southerly facing window.

Thanks Linc - pm sent.

Presumably they had removed...

Yes, I've got a clasp extender on another watch horrible thing that it is. It would be ok temporarily but I don't think they are that safe as the spring bar ends have to poke through two bits of...
