    Too obvious?

    If there was an award for TZ Super Troll I think you’d be the clear winner.

    I wouldn't say it's trolling but it is certainly a bit weird.

    I'm going to wear my fittingly German Laco, but with a red/white/blue NATO.

    What fresh hell is this?

    She supposedly didn't carry cash, so, I imagine, she had scant use for a watch. So, in the spirit of the thread, I may go " commando" for the day.

    Au contraire, she had some rather nice watches over the years.

    That is an odd article - it's from 2020, but it's written in the past tense. Is it standard practice to go back after someone dies and to change everything to the past tense?

    Her Majesty was never seen outside the walls of a Royal palace without a watch on her wrist. Even during her Coronation there was a watch on her wrist, a Jaeger leCoutre 101. Also a fond favourite of Omega, Prince William wears an Omega Seamaster Professional 300m bought by The Queen for him on his 21st birthday. He rarely doesn't wear it.

    It was given to him by his mother I think.

    You do talk some bollocks. As mentioned, any man and his dog knows it was given to him by his mother.

    You should keep that sort of aggressive behaviour in the BP where you can release your pent up anger.

    I believe it's a quartz and given to him by his late mother.

    Went today. Wore my Smiths.

    I know the royals are not for everyone but today everyone from all different walks of life came together. Made me proud to be British again.

    What watch are you wearing for the Queen's funeral

    Ooooh! Turning on fellow monarchist because they didnt know, or remember who gifted the watch.

    As for the statement that any man and his dog knows, I haven’t got a frigging clue, so have a go at me. And I am an easy target as I am a republican.

    You showed your, not very nice, true colours there.
