Very little this year...

Farer Durham Pullman on order - delivery next week

The shape and apparent heft of the thing might make it a little difficult to use efficiently? I find a more typical cook's kitchen knife around 20 cm long, like the Wüsthof Ikon, particularly good...
Thank you, I hadn't even considered that. I've emailed to ask about it.
I've just ordered an alligator strap for my 'Hulk' from Liger Straps as I liked the look of the curved ends and just suddenly got the urge to try something different. Anyone else used them? I'll post...
Wow, that must be a pretty special watch, very nice! I'll update after a visit.
Stunning! I love the dial texture and design, and it's wonderful to have something made just for you to your specifications. I'm also particularly fond of that rather 'Germanic' case and dial design...
That certainly is odd - wanting another one after selling one for that reason I mean! I've had a 'hulk' for just over 10 years now and just love the colour, it's my only Rolex and definitely a...
Definitely, I'm already way ahead of you. This method keeps my cash for a typical evening out where I can easily see it and access it without all the faff of pockets etc.
Next sensible...
Excellent, thank you everyone, and thanks for sharing your experience gusmac. I called the London shop and had a decent chat. I was told pretty much what you said kaiser. I'm going to drop in early...
Has anyone been? What did you think? A CS in red gold or platinum has been at the top of my wish list for years now. I tried, unsuccessfully, to buy one from Pragnells in 2021/22 but they were in the...
I love the look and colour of these. Nice! I've always been tempted but the size is a touch too big for me. Yes I know, dive watch etc!
What a sad state of affairs to assert that someone is "morally wrong" to own something and use it, particularly regarding a watch, on a watch forum. Is it for you to determine what is and what isn't...
Yes, I was also wondering about that. Great photos and an interesting read. Also nice to see that someone isn't afraid of a Rolex being (very) used!
I missed that one, what a rip off! :biggrin-new:
Thanks chaps! I was tending towards the 'avoid', but just curious in case someone else had dealt with them previously.
Browsing of the internet in an idle moment found the website of this company, which on first glance reveals offers of some quite hard to acquire watches, and many at very attractive prices. On the...
Super watch and a great review, a I love green watches - thanks for posting! It looks like a nice size too.
Weirdly, that's one of the virtues of the brand for me, although certainly not the most important - LF watches seem to me to have many intrinsic merits. In a world of ostentatious showy watches...
Thanks for the comments folks! Oddly enough it was a Galet Classic Tourbillon Double Spiral that I tried on - although in white gold and with a black dial - which is way out of my price range too!...
A brand that seems to get little in the way of discussion, perhaps because it is so small? It was certainly one that I had very little awareness of until I tried one on in Pragnell. I love the...
Thanks everyone, very helpful! I'll contact Oris and see if there's a rubber strap option (good suggest stef!). If not, it can just stay as it is.
I've had this Oris since 2009, and whilst perhaps a little dated in some respects I have always liked it.

Thanks for checking that!
I've never watched this chap's YouTube channel or reviews before, but this is one that I stumbled on when I was trying to make up my mind about this watch:...
Just thought that I would return to update the thread - I decided to just go ahead and order one on the basis of videos, reviews, and owners thoughts. I couldn't easily get to a store so in an...
