Maybe a vintage Sicura? It might not be a pure chrono as the machined area behind the pushers looks the same size as the crown. It may be a diver case with an internal bezel and simple one button...

I cannot believe that the lady with the Patek did not know the watch was valuable. The programme was theatre from start to finish. Most of the pawnbrokers did not come off too well either. That being...

Moon Phase watches are probably my favourite in terms of dial design. Does anyone actually buy them for the moon phase feature? I have never really thought too much about their usefulness in the...

Agree, he was potentially the best of his generation. Staying at Roma didn't help his image outside of the country, as well as the fact Serie A TV rights have been poorly managed since the Channel...

I actually think Russell is in with a good shot of winning. The track this week is a fairly easy one with long straights and flowing corners. The Mercedes is a very stable car, I suspect of all the...

The documentary of the making of the film is almost as good as the film itself.

Can't recall having seen the PVD before. I have the Technos SkyDiver with the orange dial and have read alot about the different variants.

I'm currently looking to service mine so I would be...

I had one of these some years ago that was ready for Rocco to assess but it got stolen in a burglary. I bought it quite cheaply as the crystal was scratched up but it turned out that it was almost...

80s was the best decade, no arguments :-), but general industrial design was eclectic and generally hit or miss. For me watch design peaked in the 70s with the designs and influences of Gerald Genta....

I 'restored' a Seiko diver many years ago. Never got around to doing another watch but the experience was both enjoyable and satisfying. Encourage anyone thinking about it to give it a go if they...

Not usually a fan of Ebel but that is nice.

Having a decent small collection of interesting vintage watches I have come to the conclusion that it maybe time to move them on a get one or two 'proper' watches to replace them. One keeper and one...

Agree regarding Universal Geneve. Polerouter Sub is very much underrated.

That's actually quite nicely done for an homage. I had an Ingersoll as my first analogue watch when I was young. Thought they had disappeared years ago.

£5 Cancer Research - £5 Gold Geese


All the very best to both causes

If you both have eBay accounts/PayPal accounts then maybe a message through eBay and a token payment through PayPal (10p) would be an idea. That way you can build up a better picture of the person.

I wish you hadn't mentioned the underpants, now that's all I can see. Nice watch though, particularly the black face.

I can second this.

Still looking for someone to custom make a crystal for me. Long shot, but does anyone have the dimensions of the crystal to hand? Would take the crystal out of mine but it looks like a nightmare on...

Thank you Kingstepper. I have seen this thread on my travels and PM'd the guy that has a contact of someone is Finland but he never replied. Seeing as he only posted 3 times on the entire forum he is...

WTF? I have no idea. Never heard of the website or the poster. A bit disconcerting to be honest.

What is robotic reposting and why would somebody even go to the trouble? Even the replies are the...

I have not been able to find anyone able to fabricate a crystal for the Technos. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it. UK based is preferable.

Looking...

Agreed. To be honest I find the Certina the more desirable of the two.

Quick update. Had a reply from Watchworks. Was told they were not prepared to work on the Technos because they did not have a replacement crystal. A polite way of saying thanks but no thanks, which I...

Jason is right, it is hard to compare price when both rarely come up for sale. I looked into this while I waited for mine to arrive and if you go by current sales ads, historical prices from eBay,...
