What time is it? Watches and horology

Get a Steinhart, enjoy...

rather more expensive though..

@TPR, got this from Creation Watches, not much more than a skx007 at £141, and having had both I prefer this one.

Creation also have the metal strap if you don't like rubber...

I've got this Seiko 17 jewel 7025 - 8140 for sale, comes with the Nato strap and original metal strap. Not sure how much to ask £50?

What's the button for corny? And why do you prefer that to the skx?

button tells you how much energy reserve you have left.

Prefer it as its newer, more robust (though I haven't clobbered it against anything so far) and with my skx I had it serviced by seiko several times and it kept not working, so finally lost faith in it. Am going to buy a new movement for it and get alsal to replace it, as it's on a lovely @Murt13 strap but I'll never wear it full time and or trust it not to fall over and stop working in the future...

I really don't get the iwatch and can't really see a reason to have one. It's maybe just a convention thing but they just look wrong. I think the pebble is fine though as it dosn't have the ingrained aspiration and marketing sledgehammer ofthe apple creation. Marc Newson's hand is all over it; the ikepods, especially the older ones, have a similar style but just seem a lot more honest. I'll wait till i can get a wafer thin disk that sticks to the back of my watch and offers all the same diagnostics piped straight to my phone.

Ideally I want the Montblanc smartstrap, classic watch up top, business below. Sorted.

That looks like it's made to be scratched, broken, buggered...;)

Want.

Decided against dropping £1300 on a used Speedmaster.
Now considering a solar powered Casio Edifice, but fear the ticking second hand will irk me
And a new g shock.

Wow

That's awesome.^^^

I tried on a couple of watches today. Tudor Pelagos is still very nice but I'm not a huge fan of the Black Bay

just ordered a watch from creation watches (Singapore) posted using DHL express, will I have to pay VAT or import duty when it gets here?
Thanks

Is Singapore outside the EU?

haha I hear you , but loads of people buying form creation said they marked down prices and the such to avoid it , was wondering if anyone here had any experience with them

Beautiful. Thanks for posting that. I have three vintage Grand Seiko, they really are a bit special.

Creation sent both my orders marked as 'measuring instrument' with a low value. I didn't get charged duties on either of them.

Great little film...

I see...

Yeah, thats what I actually ordered, fuckers sent me a Seiko.

Casio watches have a second hand that actually hits the markers, spot-on ! You will find it a pleasure, not a problem ;-)

My dad had a similar Rolex when I was a kid, what size is that?

Price drop, £140 all in...PM's for more info!
