What time is it? Watches and horology

Bear in mind that the old B-Uhrs were designed for wearing outside the jacket and were hugemungous.

Good point! Mainly just that style of face, maybe 42, 44mm max.

Quite liking my Maratac for the lack of branding/legibility. Mine's 46mm but they do a 39mm version:

Cripes, that's a beast! How deep is it as well? Might be a bit too manly for me...

I love my sr1... (full 46mm)

Though the alpina does look like an iwc

It is a serious monster in the 46mm variant ... Mid size might be ok though.

Size comparison. I like mine, but in retrospect the 39 would probably have been more versatile for suit-wearing and the like

You got the big one too??

YAY

Actually yes... Should read properly next time.

Yup, is the watch I wear most days...

Being a particularly cheap man, I'm rather tempted by a Parnis.

I did have a Rodina with a seagull movement which kept good time and looked pretty good until the rotor fell off after a couple of years... Hmm.

Out of curiosity did you get them to post to the UK?

I had to use the intermediary they advertise on their site.

Wait, weren't the YMs always 40mm? (Apart from the mid size ones...) Prefer the original red hand myself.

Cheers @radar!

I'm looking for a new work watch, does anyone have a SKX007 or NY0040-09E for sale?

Wedding week, this is getting worn more than usual 😍

Looking good! Glad to see its rugged build being put to good use.

Was in the airport at Zurich today with a delayed flight back to LHR due to today's IT and BLM shenanigans so did some watch porn browsing. Looking at the GO's and the slinky lady asked if I was familiar with the brand, yes, there's one on my wrist darlin'

Did get MASSIVELY tempted by the new BP 50 fathoms in ceramic (helped by the champers she was plying me with, but went for a beer and some maths and decided that even at the tax free price the Mrs would have serious words.

Fuck, it is lovely though. If only it had no date (too fricken small for my aged eyeballs) and the plastic would have taken a battering regardless of spousal disaproval.

What, this thing?

With the ill proportion.

If you after a dive watch I have a lovely 2002 sea dweller 16600 coming in soon .......and maybe a deepsea deep blue 2015

This is nang.
