What time is it? Watches and horology

Like scraping the black paint off their Lolex ;)

It's not for me but it's definitely one of the nicest i've seen of that style. Nice to see a white solar dial (mega racist).

All that matters is that you like it. Unless you're Iain. ;)

I'd have it at a moment's notice if it wasn't so damn similar to my SNA411 aside from the colours and solar power!

Fuck it. It's Friday, it's been bought. Going to buy myself a watch box with one spare space so I only buy one more watch before I'm done.

Dials - check
Numbers - check

@object would love that ^ , it ticks all the allowable colour boxes...

Not a fan of the orange, grew up on the wrong side of Belfast for that!

This'll be the final one. No watch collection is complete without an RC watch surely!

Are you sure?

Like I said, i'll be getting a watch box with two spare spaces...

Lies. That's vile.

I coulda made you a one off starp, one hole, made to measure....

Cool. I've got a vintage Le Coultre that I will be getting re-furbed in the New Year. I'll be in touch about a strap for that.

I love that, I wish I gave purchases such consideration. I never knew how sharp and defined the case edges should be.

I think I dropped a bollock on a goth Citizen bullhead without realising the prevelence of fake dials, not too expensive a mistake but feel stupid for not doing enough research. It'll look Ok with a NATO and will probably recoup the dollar on fleabay. Must. Not. Bid. When. Under. The. Influence.

SalonQP was amazing. Though most of you would've been bored as there wasn't a rolex stand.

Fossil is out...

... Police, now that's where it's at.

QP was great. Shame we didn't manage to hook up Iain. Did you get a chance to play with anything? The HM6 and Urwerk Dark Knight were outstanding for me, although neither are Rolomeiko homages so can probably >>>>

I had some time with Hald interchangeable space watch. And the piaget P900 which was even better in the flesh. And the indestructible Victorinox Inox was also better looking.
The Nomos stand was swamped so didn't get a chance to see it.
I picked up 2 coffee table catalogues from Junghans and Piaget.
All in all a lovely day!

on occasion when i see (and notice) an expensive watch on a fellow forearm i think "you are half as wealthy as that watch is meant to imply" and then i move on with my life not wearing one.

good for you

same with bikes though, yeah?

^ Same with anything. Sometimes I sit in traffic on the bus next to the guy in a Maserati. Richer, poorer? You can't second guess crap from shiny trappings, so don't try to ;)

Well this is a minefield - how wealthy am I meant to be, judged by my Seiko?

^ About 50 peases.
