    Yes, one of the new Doxa 300 T which are stocked in James Porter in the Argyll Arcade in Glasgow. They had the full selection of colours including yellow, orange, blue and silver as well as the aquamarine.

    For the money I am really pleased with it. I wanted a really vibrant colour dial and considered selling my Aerospace night mission and tracking down one of the yellow limited editions. Also, I was looking to add a cushion case to my collection.

    The watch wears so well at 42.5mm but a short lug to lug width of just over 45mm. The bracelet although nice is a bit of a hair puller.

    A Mach 3 and some shaving foam will quickly sort that problem.

    I'm surprised at this. I bought the 50th Anniversary Professional (orange) as soon as it came out and find the bracelet one of the most comfortable I own. And I still have all my arm hair intact



    I do love that aquamarine dial colour though

    Two new incomings for me today.

    I sold my Tudor GMT and regretted it. Thanks to Christian for sorting me out and the watch I have always wanted courtesy of Enoch, my new Hulk!

    It's done now, signed and sealed yesterday. My 2nd Vacheron Constantin :D



    I've decided to go ahead with the Boutique Traditionnelle instead after much deliberation. The Guilloche dial is hand turned on the rose engine and also made out of 18k pink gold. It's nice to know that there's still some hand crafting involved.

    The boutique dials just elevate that range to another level, great purchase.

    Wow! There’s some absolutely stunning arrivals today.

    The dial on that VC is amazing and given the hand turned comment, I think I need to do some research. It sounds fascinating. Congratulations on obtaining a truly beautiful watch.

    That’s pretty much my favourite high end watch, and the boutique version is definitely the best.

    Quite lovely. I’m envious

    Thanks all! I'm surprised that VC is getting some love, I thought I'm the odd one out for not choosing an AP or PP.

    Do check out some videos on youtube, it's truly fascinating and incredible to see the craftsman using the rose engine. I'm also appreciating Breguet even more as their dials are also hand turned.

    Wow. That brings back some memories. I had a Casio ana-digi like this as a teenager in the mid eighties.

    Thank you! It’s an interesting one actually. The case is Aluminium but coated in Ceramic, which toughens it up, makes it scratch resistant and gives it that lovely matte black finish.

    My first El Primero, what a great movement! Ten times more watch than a Speedmaster that’s for sure. I really fell in love with this “Panda” configuration over the more classic EP look.

    Don't blame you. That's really nice and the fact it's coated in ceramic must give some comfort re dropping. Always liked the El Primero but never enough to buy one. Would pick that over a Speedy any day.

    Me too, I have been in and out of the Amazon app like a fiddlers elbow.
    I gave mine to the ex wife when her watch died on her.
    I can see me having another by Friday...

    The Incoming / New Arrival Thread

    This came in a Saturday to replace the one I sold a month or so ago. Onto a Hirsch strap, what do you think?

    Thank you.

    The only gutting bit was my mum told me/asked me about it and said 'would you want it' after they'd bought it and just before Xmas. Just thought I'd not like it due to the watches i already have. Course I would mum, I love that! The actual thought going into buying the watch makes it priceless to me now.

    My drunken News Years morning purchase finally arrived today, and I have to say That went a LOT better than I probably deserved!



    Full set, new in October, professionally resized (for a sparrow), and not a trace of wear, even on the clasp.
    The blue of the dial is deeper and much more lustrous than my snap suggests.
    For just over £300 I'm pretty chuffed!
