If there were I guess they wouldn't admit it. And even if they did no one would believe them.

No. Sorry mate. Only serious answers please.Originally Posted by seikopath
Seriously? Ironic.
Hahahaha. You'll be lucky.

I've got the limited edition 'park life' minute repeater.
Oh, no sorry, that's a Phil Daniels.
If it's any help, I've just ordered a large Jack Daniels.
I swapped mine early April for a Christopher Ward. I haven't looked back.
I'm quite a fan of his range for the younger ones, Boy George.
I was really tempted but then I wasn't sure if I could pull it off with jeans.
Sorry couldn't resist
I go to one of his magic sets one Christmas...loved it 👍🏻
Ive never owned anything by George Daniels, but have had jeans and a cardigan by Roger Smith...
...sorry... Paul Smith...
...couldn't figure out which watch to wear with either - Christ, l must have been thick in those days...
FFS........I started a separate thread for questions like this........it's almost as bad as 'which watch should Ozzie the Labrador wear'!
God loves a trier......
Paul
Seriously? Well I'm certain there WAS a thread on here only a few months ago in which someone popped up who owned a Daniels. Can't remember much about it or even what thread it was but remember hoping he'd come back and expand a bit (which didn't happen) as there was a good bit of 'ooh'ing and 'aah'ing when said watch turned up here.
I don't own a George Daniels watch, but I have a friend who does. Trouble is, it is so valuable that he keeps it in a security vault in central London and, literally, only handles it with cotton gloves. So it has become an investment, which is a shame.
I doubt that anyone treats these as normal watches, to be worn. They are part of horological history. This particular sample came from a vastly wealthy guy in the Middle East, who sold it to my friend as part of a complex business deal (not watches.) he later offered a lot more money to try to buy it back. No deal.
They seem 'lost' to normal watch fans. But then even a Roger Smith is unaffordable. And that's no George Daniels.

Own a couple; beaters.
I hope that you're wrong and that someone uses theirs as intended - don't get me wrong - l wouldn't take one snowboarding.
If l could afford one, that person would be me. I'd wear it as often as l could out of respect to Mr Daniels.
I met a friend of a friend earlier this year who was wearing his Daniels Millennium watch as his regular wearer.
I got a close up look at it, an absolute thing of beauty.
I think it was the WRUW thread last Christmas IIRC.
That's great to know.
Why, and why?
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
AaaAaaaargh..... you just fed it!!!
Did you not hear the blind eastern shopkeeper? "No sensible questions after sunset"??
Damn, damn...
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
I wear mind for changing the oil on the jeep and gardening...
When I bought it the sales man said "I would like this... but not a lot"
I think his name was Paul.
I own a copy of his autobiography. Does that count?

Pretty sure anyone under 40yo would not know who Boy George is!
Edit: are you on the look out for people to mug/houses to rob?!

This.
He's that darts player isn't he?! 🤔
I hear he's released a range for a popular supermarket, George At Asda
That's not George Daniels, it's George Bridges.
I've got a watch containing one of his inventions.
Yes, I have 2 George Daniels in my collection,
Watchmaking & the art of breguet.
Both really interesting books I would recommend.
I bet it's an Omooga.
How the f* do people unearth these threads? I never understand how or why...
You could be right.
Nah, thems Omoogas is Daniels Craigs. You're gettin' confused. E looks like this:You could be right.
The geezer's talkin' 'bout George Daniels. This fella:
Dun yoo lot no nuffin?
I wish lol, makes Rolex look like cheap junk
I don't think so, Roger Smith wears one.
I have one of his barometers.
It's a Stormy Daniels ........ i'll get my coat.
I've got an Anthony Daniels
Someone posted up a G Daniels wrist shot at Christmas either last year or year before in the Friday watch thread?
Photo been deleted but Ryan sums it up.
