Now that my friend, was a thread. Again: bravo.

So I've been on the list for one of these & a Sub for almost exactly a year now. In the meantime, I've bought a white Seamaster & a BB58 as stand-ins with the intention of flipping them when I get...

Nice. I've tried on the older rose gold black dial 46mm several times now at my local Goldsmiths, which I absolutely love despite the size. Doesn't seem to wear so big on my 7.25in wrist, but even...

I'm also on the verge of my first G Shock. Need a watch to go round the world with, so it's a nice excuse to finally get one. Am currently somewhere between a blacked out GA-B2100 & a 5000.

Great review thanks, really enjoyed reading.

Not sure how much these are second hand, but I think they're lovely things:

Not my pic.

My Sinn 556a. Young sales assistant at my local Goldsmiths got weirdly excited when he saw it. Think Sinn as a brand communicates WIS-status very effectively.

Great review, 100thmonkey. Also thanks for the useful comparison shots Wiley. As someone who's coming up to a year on the waiting list for the ND, any estimates re. relative availability of a...

I'm aware the Goldsmiths in Cribbs are moving to a bigger unit soon (maybe around now if I recall correctly), and there were plans to start stocking GS & maybe Panerai. Will pop in when I'm next...

Late vote here for a Navitimer. Tried one on the last time I was in my local Goldsmiths & surprised myself how much I loved it. Like I really want one now - the rose gold model in particular.

Very much enjoyed reading this thread, thanks for the resurrection. Also slightly gutted that I chose this exact time in the history of mankind to decide I want to buy a Rolex. I couldn't have...

That's very useful information, thanks!

Thanks. Really interesting market breakdown.

Datejusts (although I note the comment below that perhaps I just haven't seen the right one yet), Speedmasters & GS divers. All great in their own ways, just not for me.

I could read threads like this all day. Thanks for posting & agree that Breguet is a stunner [emoji106]

Thanks for all the recommendations. Ended up staying in an Airbnb in Bairro Alto & have been wandering the city eating pasteis de nata like they were going out of fashion & enjoying the novelty of...

I tried the 43.5mm black PO on a bunch of times before I finally bought a Seamaster & I really loved it. If you're a big lad the height shouldn't matter too much & they're really nicely finished...

So, so helpful. Thanks fella, really appreciate it.

So a work thing got cancelled & I decided to impulsively book a week in Portugal, having not left Bristol in >2 years. Plan is to get an Airbnb in Lisbon & wander round the city, but I have zero...

Interesting, thanks!

Fabulous, as ever. For me nothing beats those polar Explorer ones of yours, but these got me as close to liking a Doxa as I think I'm ever going to get.

I did not know these were a thing - thanks for educating me. Was briefly obsessed by Dunhill cologne as a teenager, but I didn't know they made watches.

+1. Famously, when I was about 6 I had to be dragged away from a TV set in Dixons where I was standing open-mouthed looking at Debby Harry & refusing to leave.

These watches confuse me. Not sure what I think about them tbh. You've got to respect the guy who buys all three though, as someone else said: strong work there.

Surprised & delighted at this result.
