Just beginning to get my head around the Seiko thing - thanks guys. So far it's the full-size Turtle and esp the PADI Turtle which look good. (My BSAC buddies will probably take the piss though.) I'm...

Ha! Yes. Nice watch and in the running! I was hoping for a bit more Pepsi pop action. It may be the light in your photo but the colours seem a little muted - tasteful even... :smug:
I've got a Steinhart Ocean 1 GMT Pepsi dial and rather like it. The only thing is that it's not that useful as a dive watch (rated at 300m but the bezel isn't designed to help measure elapsed time)....

My first outing - Mid Ohio - around 1998, I think.

I tracked a 944STurbo back when I lived in the US. Ran it in Porsche Car Club NA Club Racing Standard spec and sometimes drove it to work. Full cage, kill switch, custom aluminium seats, free flow...
It was beautifully made but quite thick and not super-supple. I’m sure it would wear-in nicely though. I found the folds at the top a bit of a clash with the watch and preferred the CF straps...

I know AD's and brand outlets don't always get good write-ups but I thought I'd just say that I recently had a really good visit to the JLC London boutique. I popped in to try on a range of Reversos...
This is a quick ask to see if there's anyone whose company (or who themselves) might be interested in sponsoring a charity event at the Tate Modern. It's run by a coalition of charities working with...
Just as long as your son doesn’t start calling everyone “you f**kers”!

Dave - Do you know if that’s a factor variable by design of those parts alone or is it an absolute that needs to be accounted for in the overall design?
Not in Herts but I’m happy to recommend Clayton Miller in London: https://kmjsolicitors.com I live in N Herts & he was really great. Didn’t need to see him that often. I’ve got 2 young-ish kids & was...
I went with IWC - the 853 - a gold (pretty much the same as you pictured) and a black dialled steel. Very good movements. Unfortunately I couldn’t stop there and added a JLC 800 C, a 37mm two-tone...
Paul - that's really interesting, thank you, especially about the mainspring barrel. A couple of years ago I took delivery of a lovely Omega and it was initially all over the place before settling...
I recently received a lovely watch and it had been serviced by an excellent watchmaker a few months ago. However, it very consistently lost an average of 16s/day.
These things happen and, for the...
Would definitely need photos to know what models they are... Take a look at the fountain pen network for a sense of things... http://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/

Sounds like it could possibly be a rare lemon; it's probably good that the AD is swapping it out for a new one. There's a YouTube video looking at the construction and making up of the cases for...
Rebel Waltz - The Clash (from Sandinista)
And (hopefully) here’s a still of it...

Blimey. I think you/she might have to limit the options quite a bit for us. New only or used? Chronograph or three handed? White, black or coloured dial? Classic/dressy, tool/diver/flier, etc, etc. ...
Lol - I still have one of those! Haven’t gone open plan quite yet.
Can’t remember the last time I saw a grapefruit knife though...

It’s certainly very possible with WP. You upload your images to something called the Media Library. You can reference them on your own site for your articles but also from anywhere else, here...
Thanks from me too. Although it’s now whetted my appetite for a Zenith like that... Gawd.

It was just the one fish. And it was an utterly vicious and vindictive bastard. But point taken... one makes ones bed.

Did you forget something at the end here...? Lolz!
Seriously - thanks for your post, which I found really interesting and I’d be interested in hearing more.
