How easy is it to buy one of these direct from a retailer for RRP? I have no experience with AP but that watch is stunning. My experience with Rolex makes me feel like looking elsewhere. My first...
My experience after having a Tesla Model 3 and running a Mercedes GLE in tandem. The Model 3 goes back to the lease company next week. It was a lovely drive, however felt like the old Ford Escort...
Cool, I’m super excited that might work out well! Nice 50th Anniversary addition Sub is a grail for me. I still kick myself now, was offered one in 2008 for £2k and spent the money on a laptop 🙈
Good call, didn’t think of that. Could line up with the AD when back. I am going on a Business Visa to start with and will have to come back to the UK to process the IQAMA so might be a shout then!...
Yes around 3 months back and then again 3 weeks later. I was devastated I had just shelled out for two new bathrooms and new windows. Hence the purchase didn’t happen.
I have bought half a...
The whole influencer culture is an insanity. I do hope pinstripe, red braces, contrast collar shirts and the gaudy haute couture of the 80’s comes back, I was wearing a double breasted suit today 🤣....
I am imminently moving to Saudi Arabia. After feeling sad when I got the call not once but twice from the AD for a Blue two tone Sub 41 and not having all the funds at that moment to justify buying...
I have a Tesla Model 3, it doesn’t cost me much due to it being a company car. (BIK tax break). It’s amazing from what I can gather, however due to the lockdown I haven’t been able to drive very far.
A bare market is the best time to buy according to all
Of the really successful financial gurus. Problem is even the greats get it wrong sometimes. Even Warren Buffet has had a few howlers in the...
The history, space fascinates me.
I like the movement in them, that is the modern ones with the Coaxial Escapement. After seeing a documentary about George Daniels inventing the CoAxial...
Great point, if you can find a supplier that can put something like this together (with the Seiko movement) for £15 let’s get a Forum watch made, withTZUK printed on the dial I’m sure we could fill...
Nothing special about them other than the have a manufacturing site near me in Glasgow, they manufacture a lot of equipment for the offshore industry.

I’m sold.... will...
Came across this on line, thought it looked like a good beater, manufactured by James Fisher Defnse for commercial diving.

Most definitely, I hope to have it published one day, it is a really unique story about where he grew up, Clydebank, he worked in the ship building industry when Clydebank was the centre of the...
Stunning watch, my Grandad wrote me a book about his life, he was attached to the parachute regiment as a radio operator for a time during WW2, he was issued a Longines just before Operation Dragoon,...
Thanks that’s a really useful article, service cost comparable with my current Rolex as well! That seems like a goer, Rolex seems to be really common at the moment, in the past year in my office...
I’m considering my next watch purchase and have lusted after an AP for a while, however I’m curious as to service cost and is there the same ridiculous waiting time for AP as with new Rolex at the...
I really like mine, multi room works flawlessly, recording function is great can record 4 things and watch tv at the same time. Now for the down side Sky Movies ain’t worth the money the films are...
That's a bit harsh, your brother sounds a bit dictator to me that he would allow his brothers partner to be excluded due to her dress sense. Personally I would tell them to ram it, I have no time...
I am no expert and may be wrong, however I think it was with the introduction of the new style 41mm Air King last year...
I stand to be corrected, an interesting side note is that allegedly if you...
I popped in to the Rolex AD at the Forum Shops at Cesar's palace today, they had some rare watches in stock including a Rose gold sky dweller, no Ceramic Daytona though 😂 I've been really lucky on...
There is a £59 a night deal with dinner for 2 nights on with the Village urban hotel just now its close to the BBC and excellent value for money, the food is nice and the rooms are quite nice as well.
Saw this and thought it may be of some interest, I wasn't aware Bretling offered this service, it would be very cool to have done a noteworthy job that would warrant having a custom logo watch, it...
A couple of recent shopping trips I have been on has shown tourists going mad for what they see as bargains due to the weak pound.
The first was to McArthur Glen designer outlets, I saw loads of...
