Sorry it’s taken me a while to find the words but felt I should pass on the news. May Lorne rest in peace and my condolences and thoughts are with his family. Few even knew he was ill. I will think...

If anyone tells me I can’t have a certain thing in a watch it just makes me want it more. Nothing worse than a watch snob!
Still my first choice every weekend...

I’m in for a GTG. I’ve not had the pleasure of meeting Lorne in person yet.

It feels heavier on the bracelet because the strap holds it right to the wrist, but I wear bracelets half a link looser than a strap for comfort. It’s the sliding around that makes it feel too heavy....
Thanks! Another example of why this is the best purchase I’ve made in my watch collecting career. More than happy for you to share the review.

I’ve made a little video review of #144

#144 is Still on bracelet and although the lack of adjustment makes it a little looser than I’d like I don’t think I’ll go back to a strap now I’m used to it.

All the remaining stock at Watchunique has been withdrawn from sale so I can only assume the last few were part of a bad batch. Loving the bracelet, though, so all's well that ends well :)
You can...
I am not convinced by the two tone look. Full gold would look amazing but is about £8k over my budget [emoji23]
After my Hirsch strap disintegrated on the third wear (kindly refunded by...
Solid gold you say? Please don’t share any photos to tempt me because I definitely can’t afford that upgrade!

I'm thinking of upgrading to Teju in the New Year, after the Hirsch fell apart within a week... Would love to see some pics and feedback if you get one.

No matter what you say, Lorne, a chronograph's second hand belongs pointing straight up at all times it's not chronographing :smug:
Here it is: number 144 in all its glory. I relented on just having the bracelet and Lorne kindly fitted this Hirsch strap I found. I think the colour suits it. I remain in love with the watch.

That map is great. I'm in Hull, and see there is one not far from me in Beverley. I'll have to keep my eyes open for it!
Thanks for the kind words about my website too!
Just had confirmation from Lorne that number 144 (a Fibonacci number!), my late 40th birthday present, will be with me next week!
That's me, and yes, I have indeed ordered one of Lorne's watches and paid for it with my own hard earned cash - the watch really is that good. (I most certainly dont' get anywhere near as many free...
