What time is it? Watches and horology

I read that as "My cat reads them to me" - now that truly would be awesome. Where can I get one of these text reading cats?

Is this new or used? You have link to site radar? Very nice! Ta :)

Thanks, I bought it new from the Timefactors website. Photography isn't their strong point, you can have a better look at it on the Worn & Wound review.

Thanks radar, very nice.

If Christopher Ward made an Exploreresque model with their new in-house SH21 movement I'd so be keen.

That would definitely be more impressive.

I guess the only issue with that system is that most cats will barely look at you if you call them over etc so getting them to read something for you, on demand, would never work.

I think bribery and sardines might work.

Steinhart are a teensy weensy bit useless, aren't they? How can a watch be 'in stock' yet there's still no sign of it after over two weeks? I've emailed them again this morning...

I'm not desperate to have it on my wrist right-now-this-very-moment-for-fuck's-sake-what's-wrong-with-you-people? but I am starting to get a bit annoyed with them... Do u even customer service, Steinhart?

They used to be a lot better about delivery but their sales have grown exponentially and their staff haven't grown along with it.

I think they're also struggling with the limited supply of movements that ETA are still restricting.

Fingers crossed it turns up soon!

I did read up on a lot of the watch forums and it seemed they'd turned a corner recently wrt getting orders out... Oh well... I only ever wear my #nonemoreblack F-91W atm anyway...

Yep. Steinhart are slow with delivery. It is very frustrating.

Be prepared to wait a few more weeks/months. Even for 'in stock' items.

Everything I need from a functional watch I have in my G-Shock. It's also accurate to a silly degree, solar powered, chrono, world-time, alarm, and the face is 100% analogue (no LCD on this).

what watch is this? Am interested in getting a do everything watch which is super robust, let me know..

Where can I get my posh watches cleaned and polished in London? Both are stainless steel.
I'd prefer not to go the Omega or Rolex and pay top dorra

casio protrek manaslu

Not as robust as a G-shock. But it does have a world time, led, compass, 6 band radio control, stopwatch, water resistant, thermometer, barometer, alarm, altimeter, solar powered and no LCD.

Alsal... Next!

Pro Trek Casio is hot.

My fave. Disappointed that the body isn't actually metal though, which I discovered when mine broke when playing 5-a-side...

I lost my omega sea aster aqua terra quartz in Berlin in March this year. I got a £1750 voucher for ernest jones from the insurer and originally planned on buying a speedmaster. I'm now realising that I really don't have the extra ~£1200 to add to the voucher to buy the speedmaster full price. Does anyone have any suggestions of watches available through ernest jones around the budget of my voucher?

I'm going to have a look at the Bell & Ross Vintage series tomorrow.

Tudor Ranger?

Phallic

Also, trimmed arm hair. for realz ?!

It's a nice looking watch on a silver bracelet, have they changed the dial? Was sure it said Ranger on there before... Maybe i was looking at an older example... Looks way better like this...

Still not sure it's worth close to £2k tho'...
