That's nice; how old is it?

Love the colours. Would like to turn the clock back a couple of years and pick one of these up.

I like that. How does it wear?

Ta!
Should’ve have really put that information up with the watch!
I take it your looked at the really good thread that I attached…
I’ve been hunting one down for years…. But wanted the green and with a bracelet…. Probably THE rarest combo! I think I put my finger through my iPhone screen when it came up…. I’m delighted with it and the sweeping second hand and the gentle hum of the movement are wonderful!

I had to keep this under wraps for a few weeks, as good as my Wife is with this hobby I think two new watches in a week might have tested that good will just a little.
A late 70s Seiko 7546-802J Silverwave.

Sorry, another boring Rolex. I do love them though...
2 blue dials for me in the last few weeks

dressy diver (at least for me) and of the best "bang for buck" (at least for me)

Yes, cheap, reliable, good looking watch for casual, sporty wear, even can be dressed up. I find it better then my SKX

I love it mate. Just love it. It's hard to quantify but basically it's as if Seiko made a 60s diver using modern techniques but ensuring the watch is accurate to the 60s original. So it's like a super high quality vintage watch and a better execution that the Omega trilogy attempts I've owned. The indices are really well finished and the watch exudes superb light play kind of like what you get on a brilliant diamond but in this case with a sepia hue. It's wonderful. Some people have compared the finishing with Grand Seiko. I've owned many GS and they are IMHO finished to a higher standard than this but then again this is a pure tool diver not a dressy piece which is where GS differentiates itself.
Re SLA019 it's a lovely watch but notreally comparable as the SLA025 is made to a much higher standard and is far more retro in style and feel. But it is pricey. It is also a definite step up in quality from the SLA017. It is a tall bugger though so any less than 7 inch wrists and don't bother.

Just bought a Speedmaster Professional at Malta Int airport. Up for €4400 euros, i haggled down to €3300. Worked out at £2,920. They’re holding it until I return Thursday as well. Saves lugging the box over to the U.K. and back.

I am a latecomer to Panerai having just bought this very cool PAM0088. For many years this model has been one of only a few Panerais that really appealed and I am glad to say it hasn't disappoint in the flesh. Something very distinctive and a great strap watch for a bit of variety in my fairly conservative watch horde.

always fancied one of these. Pretty tidy for 1967. Thanks David
Well…. I believe I’m obliged to admire this one!!
Very nice indeed!
Yep…. I believe we do…. I certainly admire a lot of the stuff I see you wearing…!!!
Green was the one I held out for…. Orange is lovely but potentially a little shouty for my tastes
Yes I think it is the better choice, I often worry with the Orange that it could be a bit much and could tire of it. The green is certainly more classic and I don't think I would ever not want to wear that.
Great watches, I still need one of these floating marker Longines. I've bid on so many but always get pipped by the last minute snipers on eBay.
Picked this watch up a couple of days ago, and very happy so far.
Back from some major surgery

Longines 38.5mm Master Collection. Ideally it would be a mm or two smaller but still really pleased with it.
Something a bit different,an Omega marine Chronometer
Got a coke the other day. The lugs and bracelet are in need of some restoration so it’s off to Michael Young in HK.
Once it’s back, it’s off to Rolex for a service and jubilee bracelet!
A very modest purchase, my first digital since sometime back in the 80’s.
Amazing value for £65. Especially considering what I’ve spent in the past on the likes of Omega and Tudor...
