    Very nice mate, and getting very tempting too.
    I was thinking of a Swiss auto movement inside but it’s probably no big deal really.
    Thanks for the pic,
    Rob

    I know what you mean, the movement probably isn’t the best ( a Seiko in mine I believe) but I think the aesthetic is almost spot on.

    The Swiss auto was to go alongside a Swiss quartz in my other watch, very ocd of me 🤣
    They do seem to look the part to me, I also came across Freese watches, pre patina’d, made in the U.K. but dearer, they do look very nice though.
    But not very waterproof for some reason?

    If you're tempted by that then you may consider the Steinhart verson. Excellent quality.

    Thanks,
    I originally didn’t as I thought they were just an homage, no offence intended
    But after looking at your pic it’s a good looking watch.
    I’ll look into them deeper now.
    What movement is in yours?
    Cheers,
    Rob

    Is that a Gnomon special edition?

    Only fair to add that I bought the first version, I think they're up to V3 now. I would imagine they've ironed out the faults by now.

    It looks like the 39mm model, in which case they are sold exclusively through Gnomon.

    Maybe, it definitely looks classier than the usual version.

    Yes. It is the Gnomon version. I'm very pleased with it. I posted a link a few posts ago.

    Helson and Chris Ward tridents come with on-the-fly adjustable bracelets. For me that’s a big plus for comfort and probably be getting a Helson once the one i want is back in stock. It does mean the clasp is chunkier though.
