I thought the black dialled BB Pro might be my dream watch, then I tried it on. What a disappointment - so tall when viewed from the side it looked like a little turret! - Goldilocks proportions from the front, Frankenstein on the wrist. Gutted.Originally Posted by petay993

That looks lovely John and in really great condition.My new Seiko 6309,nice to have one again
I’m wearing a new arrival courtesy of Sean and Sales Corner.
Superb watch and functionality for the money.
Really like the green and black dial.
Cheers

Picked up today via a most wondeful face to face meet up / trade in London... well worth the trip.
A great day.

Very nice, always liked that model.
Good to see something a bit different too.

I am a happy bunny with todays arrival
The blue of the dial and bezel
Really pops in the day light
This could be the perfect summer watch.
Very good.
Always liked that model, just a bit too chunky for me.
This just arrived

A lovely Sinn above, I've always admired the brand but never quite got to own one.......... until today.
I was smitten with the 903 when it was relaunched last year and have had it sort of on the radar since. It finally became a must have after watching our very own Bazza's Click Spring Reviews two videos of the watch......... unfortunately for me, I am mainly a dive watch enthusiast, so having discovered just how good Sinn watches are, I see the Sinn rabbit hole in front of me!
The 903 is a great watch (I have 2) it’s a good place to start with Sinn as it’s a little less utilitarian than lots of their offerings.A lovely Sinn above, I've always admired the brand but never quite got to own one.......... until today.

I do like a B&R Instrument watch, and had a good look at the Horizon and the Ceramic Matte. Whilst I loved the former as a classic quirky B&R, I decided on the latter as being less novelty and more iconic. I really liked my old blue steel and missed something square, so I’m very happy to have another in my collection.
Oh my. Im curious obout your Speedmaster collection.

Today's arrival ... Tritium dial PAM24 B series. A wonderful blast from the past ....
Thank you, it is constantly evolving. I think I’m where I want to be at present. I would like a Pilot but not at the ridiculous RRP. I’ll bide my time and look on the used market in the summer.

Excited for an incoming from SC, a 2254 Seamaster. Had my eye on them for a long time, think I messaged the original seller back when it first sold on the forum about it. Probably going to wear it mostly on a nato. Any thoughts on if Omega boutique would size the bracelet for me if I asked nicely? Not sure I want to faff about with the pins. Will share a photo when it arrives :eager:

Beauty!Today's arrival ... Tritium dial PAM24 B series. A wonderful blast from the past ....
Eventually picked this up on Monday having agreed a F2F months ago. My first BP, I'm delighted. A stunning watch and with the previous X70 bracelet that I was wanting (so much nicer than the current X71). Thanks so much to the seller who went out of his way for the F2F. I can see another BP in my future.
This has rekindled my interest in watches tbh, my spark has gone in the past 6 months or so - I was bored with my Rolex (mainly) and Patek et al collection.
P.S. It has been a palaver confirming what size of hex bit is needed for the bracelet screws. I'm using the provided T5 Torx bits for now, but the screws are hexagonal so I was looking to confirm the size. Online forums imply 1.2mm. BP London confirmed to me 2 days ago 1.0mm. I bought 1.00mm and they are too small, and 1.27mm is too large, so I'm now looking for 1.2mm. It is frustrating that even BP can't confirm the size. But, they are willing to sell me the over-priced screwdriver set. I'll keep looking...

They're great watches, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. I would hope they would resize the bracelet for you.
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Have been waiting to get my mitts on this for a few weeks.
I had been looking for a classic white dial with clear, dark markers and hands for some time, since first trying on the Omega Speedy in white. I just don't think that's worth >£7k though.
By chance this was then advertised to me by a trusted London-based dealer. I didn't even know it existed before then.
A quick look in person and a deal was agreed for my first IWC at a price I think is excellent. I finally picked it up yesterday.
A LE of 1000 for their 150th anniversary in very very good condition for a 7 year old watch.
Absolutely thrilled.

A new arrival for me - I really like the colours and sizing. It's nice and thin, and they shaved a bit off the lugs so they're not as long as usual. Really nice and simple function too.

That's one of the LE colours, isn't it? Well done snagging one of those!
A lovely watch!
A bit rough round the edges but I do like it. Any suggestions for replating? It could do with freshening up a bit and the bracelet certainly could!

A wise TZer once advised growing the love a bit, then eventually pruning. Always curious about these, and jumped on a 2 month old one.
First impressions are very favourable, a real no nonsense watch.

Latest one for me - Yema Navygraf GMT, 38.5mm case, Yema 3000 movement, domed sapphire crystal - this French brand has invested heavily in trying to shift to in-house manufacture, makes a change from usual Swiss, Japanese, German & Chinese brands.
