Speedmasters.

This is my 43mm white dial. Lovely watch, very versatile and great build quality. Design harkens back to the Heuer days in the 80s.
I think Tag Heuer lost their way a bit for a while but are on a...
Thanks very much. Copy ordered.
:encouragement:
First dip into more expensive brands was a Tag 2000 back in 1990, which if I remember rightly was about £250 new. Next significant purchase was an Omega Seamaster. Both long gone, as have many...
And I was the lucky beneficiary. Can’t say it’s been used for diving, but it spends a lot of time in the water. I gave it to my stepson who uses it when kayaking and fishing. Apart from a battery...
I have a couple of knives and use them for the same purpose. Perfect for slicing the saucisson. My preferred knife of choice is an Opinel “Le Thiers”.
Sorry, no photo. It’s in France and the...
Probably still a bit raw, but my stepson has just been mugged. They stole his Seiko!! And the shirt of his back. Literally!!
Granted, not in London, it can happen anywhere.
There is not...
Have to join the plaudits for the World Timer. It’s lovely!!

Has anyone had any dealings with, or know of, JPO Watches, Warrington, trading on Chrono24?
Thanks in advance.
:encouragement:
Great review. And if the comments above are any indication, another winner that will keep Eddie busy for weeks after its release.
:encouragement:
Bucking the trend, it’s a Yea from me.
Vive la difference :eagerness:
Have to agree. That is very cool. Would love to build something like this.
I didn’t realise that M4tt wrote this, so thanks for pointing it out. And congrats to M4tt, I would second Tony’s view that this is a
splendidly written piece.
:eagerness:
Just finished the first article. Hugely interesting read. Despite the evidence reported in it, I suspect that it will be the myths and legends that will endure.
Thanks for posting Eddie.

Another vote for Adrian at Bark and Jack and JustOneMoreWatch. I enjoy their presenting style, but their opinions are just that - theirs.
Didn’t see any mention of TGV, either good or bad?

I’ve got the white dialled auto version and love it. Before buying I looked at the other colour dial variants including green, but opted for white as I find that the black frames around indices and...
I’m not making any comment about whether or not the proposal is a good or bad idea and ultimately this is for Eddie to decide, it s his playground. But if the forum doesn’t evolve (hearing out new...
I can’t answer definitively, so probably shouldn’t comment at all, but it’s seems unlikely to me that the navigator would use his driver s watch as a back-up in this way? Firstly, he d be focused on...
I ve ordered far more than I would do normally online, some higher value items incl. watches, some less so.
Out of everything that I ve ordered the only item not to arrive was a tub of Copydex...

My brother’s 71 arrived Friday. Still waiting on mine, but I ordered a couple of extras which seem to be holding things up!
It looks great in the flesh (based on my limited view of my brothers)...
