What time is it? Watches and horology

Most definitely...

Needs the scoble scale of chilis to be complete.....

Not this?

No more! ;)

Getting things back on track: When you realise you have a dive watch problem (I don't dive).

I am eyeing up the new Straton mecha-quartz Chrono on Kickstarter.
Not sure the Ministry of Home Affairs would be happy with me buying another watch though.

Oooh, the one at the back!

I don't dive

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Nice IWC.

Where d'you get the shroud/surround on the gold Seiko?

It comes with the shroud.
it's a 1000m jobbie

Ah, I see.

There are a few, 300m, 600m and the 1000m

also called the Tuna or hockey puck

Thanks guys - the Aquatimer has just come back from the factory where it was treated to a full overhaul. It may be a dive watch but it's properly versatile - it dresses down on the rubber and up on the (excellent) bracelet. Tunas are my guilty pleasure - they definitely don't dress up! I've had a few but the golden 1000m version (it's actually TiN coated Ti) is my favourite. One day I'll have a 6159-7010, the 600m auto version.

What scoble joy!!! Much mirth :) thanks >>>>>>

@DrJimmyMac . your aquatimer. good choice doc.

More love for the Aquatimer over here. Beaut

I'd love a 6159-7010 case, and stick a decent (21j) auto in it.

Went to Google image, and decided not to.

Good call, but even goldfish can't get them that long.

I love internal bezels. This is a favourite of mine.

I LOVE @gridds IWC.

New beater. Not owned anything quartz in years.

@chainbreaker, for future reference, you can't put a internal bezel in any watch, unless the movement supports it.

So, since offloading my SKX007 I have been wanting another one... oops.
No I have my Citizen as my functional watch - purely for, ahem... watersports I could actually use something like a seiko 5, just for funz.

Do I:

or

Or a skx009 or just another 007 and go modding...

probs should have kept the original 007j as looking at prices they have gone up.

ha, you had better post a pic soon...
