Got a lot of time for AnOrdain, but that Struthers piece is something else again - proper haute horlogerie, and with a commensurate price attached of course!

Curved-end straps are such a minefield thanks to the dimensioning variables, it seems to be pure luck if you find an aftermarket one that fits.
Single-pass NATO-style straps can look good and hide...
Is there no AR coating on the outside of the Omega's crystal, or did you have to remove that first?
Lovely set. Of the three, the Rolex is the most commonplace and least interesting, and is still close to its peak value with further descent looking likely for a while at least, so if it were me...
Not conventional, but I reckon either would look good on one of Hirsch's waterproof composite caotchouc straps, e.g. -
...
Which colour?
Excuse the gushing - but that is a great looking combo there :encouragement: I can't afford an MM300, but the feedback about Watch Steward straps has certainly whetted my appetite!
In theory, they might be perfect-able, but I've yet to try one that fully ticks all the boxes, mainly because I want to wear them like this:

Still on the website with a 'call us'... These seem to be the main poster-child for Breitlight currently:

I tried to, but it fell-asleep half way through.
I need "Verbosarly"... :sorrow:
I'm always conflicted about grammar - by which we often mean linguistics, and thus fall at the first hurdle...
I had the 'benefit' of what was laughingly known as a 'Comprehensive' education...

So eight times the space - WTF are they actually going to put in it given...
So, exactly what the original CW used to do - to the everlasting irritation of customers? :cower:
Entertaining as always, than Wimm :encouragement:
Low 4-figures iirc.
Started with much fanfare with a watch only the fans of one particular soccer team might possibly want, never heard from again even though apparently produced a number of...
Least surprising news
So WTF was it all about? Too much cocaine use? Tax write-off? Nasty head-injury? Fever-dream?
"But apart from that what have the Romans ever done for us...?"
I sorta feel like you need to listen to yourself here - there's an important difference between "besotted" and "infatuated" when...
"One ruthless owner, watch is heavily stained by the blood of innocent women and children..."
Blimey, the style of that ad takes me back! Although, even as a kid in the 70s, I'd never have trusted anything from ads like it. That said, these don't look garbage, just rather generic.
Hard to...
Time for something smaller, if not lighter - Archimede Outdoor Protect - HAGWE!

While these watches are not for me, I really like the direction they've taken - from an outsider's POV these have an unabashedly Japanese look and feel to them, and it would be kind of stupid not to...
Wonder if availability of new sought-afters may start to rise in markets less-affected by those concerning CN?
Gotta dump 'em somewhere... :nonchalance:
Really lovely watch - not what I'd normally go for either, but I was drooling over them on C24 last week - lot of Cartier-Love around, quite infectious... Must resist...
FFS... Popped this on to take some pics prior to SC, and now wondering if I've made the right decision... So light! (Blatant pimping obvs :disgust:)

If it's the right watch, and the 'branding' is discrete - like the CW - then I can live with it. I'd kind of prefer it wasn't there, but it wouldn't stop me buying - and that watch looks a good...
