    I've got a hunch - and I think verv might have said this somewhere - that the issue is likelier the more the watch is worn. My (very early, so out of warranty) SD43 has always been 1-2 seconds per...

    His YT profile says that while he 'was one of the UK's leading and most established independent watch dealers', he is now, quote, a 'Crime figher and Campaginer for social justice'.

    It's very true that some watches look much better in photos than the flesh, and some vice versa - to a surprising degree. I bought a NOS 16570 [polar] years ago on the basis of seeing so many...

    A beautiful watch, but I can't stop worrying about the blood supply to your hands ... :-)

    I've got a lot of affection for Longines. I bought my daughter a Dolce Vita for a big birthday.

    Are any of these reviews recent? Good to hear if so. I bought several watches from AMJ but it was always from a distance and I had to give up several years ago when they stopped replying to emails.

    Spot-on yes, I was thinking this - i.e. that given the way it's sought to position itself lately, CW must be delighted with Bremont's self-immolation.

    100% the same. I abandoned JLC for that reason, and have more or less abandoned Breitling due to BUK issues. Stuart keeps me with Zeniths. ISTR that some on here know him so I hope he's seen this...

    I've never heard of this issue on the Aerospace before. Sadly you have to suspect it's BUK price-gouging; if even 1 in 10 punters says "gosh, ok" then it's easy money.
