You're not kidding. I was thinking the handset was particulalrly nicely executed - better than a LOT of much more expensive mainstream brands, but TBF the whole things stands-up to scrutiny. Very...

For god's sake someone buy my bluddy Traser on SC and give my conscience a break, I'm on the sniff again...
Thanks for this - 1966 Kenny Everett nostalgia* trip underway :encouragement:
(*ish... I was 2).
These - along with the overwhelming majority of consumer goods - are coming from one of the least ethical sources possible - the pseudo-communist dictatorship of China. A nation regularly topping...
Seems to work well for Thames Water...
And this latest range of watches appear to be the discharged effluent in this instance...
Tread very warily buying Linn-anything from the last 20 years or so - at some point they changed from linear PSUs to switchmode. Great for efficiency, but many of them have proven unreliable, and...
Immediate improvement :encouragement:
Personally prefer a strap be as short as functionally possible - hate having half a yard of unnecessary strap flapping in the breeze.
Love the look of these.
Unsolicited strap suggestion #2 - were it me I'd go two-part so as not to add any more height to a big watch, and try and match the tone -
...
What a beautiful thing, and finally - contrasting hands! :encouragement:
To hell with its subject, but this is my new favourite thread title! :highly_amused:
IME even cheap crappy watches sell better if they come 'full set', so unless you live in a Tokyo studio flat, it seems barmy to bin 'em.
^ This ^ :encouragement:
It looks like hot garbage - a bad copy of a more refined watch, executed (and it should be) in poorly-matched materials.
Well that's quite the party trick!
That Squalematic is bloody lovely. I've been having impure thoughts about Squale watches recently, so would value your opinion on how robust you think the bezel insert is likely to be? I'm a clumsy...
Scarcity after Rolex bought ALL the YG to make that chestwiggy new Deepsea... :sour:
The (immediate-) future's bright...

This thing needs smashing with a hammer - get it out of circulation ffs.

Pushing the envelope a little further with a set of strap adaptors and a CNS 'Marine Nationale' strap... Certainly comfy!
...
I was interested to read about the purveyors of winebar battle-clubs having exploiting this practice all the way back to the 1990s - evidently where Rolex copied it from. As ever, more-fool the...
There's certainly a similar generic-ness to the overall designs!

Yep, agree, ditto the Breitling.
Those are not the release models though - they're either 3D-printed prototypes, or entirely new ceramic-cased or (hoik! spit!), PVD models.
Notwitstanding, agree with an earlier poster - the...
Nice Hublot tribute, but I prefer the original... :thumbsup:

I quite like the new chronos - more so than the old - but the new Supermarines are woefully forgettable "me-too" designs. As a new brand, ditching what heritage you have established is demented. It...
Well said - this is one of the most bleeding-edge areas of watch technology, but the amount of interest they seem to generate - even among the cognoscenti - is surprisingly little. It amazes and...
