Grabbed a Turtle to see what all the fuss is about.
Picked up yesterday. Loving how the blue on bezel changes colour. All most black in the picture.

I’ve realised that for some reason I’ve never actually contributed to this thread before...
Anyway, I’m on a bit of a Bulova roll at the moment - last year I bought a Moonwatch, a couple of months ago I bought the ‘Stars & Stripes’ from Peter Skinner of this parish. These are the two models that currently comprise the Archive Series. Now I’ve just picked up this to keep them company...
...and here are the first two...
All fitted with the same 262khz UHF chrono movement, of course.
I’m now seriously considering buying the 3rd Archive Series model (just announced as the Devil Diver) when it’s released next spring at Baselworld 2018.
What an addictive hobby this is .

My first Squale. Very impressed with the quality. A lot of watch for the money.
Got this yesterday.
Christmas arrived early for me yesterday.
I have been after one of these for a couple of years and now I'm not totally sure about it.
If the watch is not sat just right the box lid will not fully close. I cannot believe it is actually smaller than the box my 11 year old datejust came in.
The corners of each lug feel quite sharp and the bottom end of the side feels like running your finger across the blade of a knife.
So not totally enamoured but given the time it takes to get one I will give a test run and see if it grows on me.
Long story shory, went out for a coffee with a work colleague and came back with this strapped to my wrist. Most expensive cup of coffee I've ever had

Getting used to the air king more and more. starting to like it!
It is my "least sporty" Rolex and I like the clean lines. I have always liked the Milgauss but this is £1500 less. -2 to +2 certified, 5 year warranty, 10 year service intervals. My son liked it too and it would time well as an 18th or 21st birthday present to him.

GS SBGM021... one of the last “SEIKO” branded Models:
Been looking for one for a long while, picked up this beauty on SC.
This replaces my Speedy Tuesday. After Christmas I will fit a black leather strap.
I prefer the black sub dials because they are a lot easier to read. The TinTin has never been a particularly popular version, but I am hoping that will change. If not, still a nice, cheerful, watch.

Just collected from Swatch HQ in Southampton. Given a check up and demagnetised, all for no charge. Good stuff. Then we had to go to IKEA as punishment.....

Two 36mm beauties arrived this week...
What models are they? Are those custom straps?
