What time is it? Watches and horology

The plain oyster perpetual is the one I like....

Damn it...

I've lost a 22mm screw bar fitting for my Pebble Steel strap. And it's on the day that Pebble has now officially ceased trading due to the sale to FitBit. Cock...

Anyone know where I can source these in the UK? Seen some in the US but would like it fairly quickly.

Ta.

My favourite oyster is this one:

Mine too, although I prefer the older smaller version.

Can I confess something awful?

I've been wearing a black Fitbit Charge instead of a watch for the last 6 weeks. And enjoyed it.

I've been wearing a Mi Band 2 on my left wrist with my Citizen on my right for about a week now.

Feels odd.

Tried, can't double up. Just can't adapt.

James Bond prop watch for sells:

Doing the same. Are you using the official app?

Yup, not tried it with Google Fit yet. I just really got it as an alarm more than anything so there's not much incentive to stray from the official app.

I'm not sure I wanted stuff being sent to ... Well anyone who isn't Google (and only because google already know everything about me anyway so that horse has bolted). I'm using Gadgetbridge which seems to work okay for the data connection, and can set- but not stop- the alarms

I've denied all the access to my calls/texts/notifications etc. (though it's paired with a Galaxy S5 I use for testing android apps so there's no private info on there anyway). Not sure if I can get an official app for my BlackBerry...

Don't think there's much value in 3 readings of my HR rate per day either ;)

Ha! I've had the MiBand2 on my right wrist and Smiths Everest on my left for about a week. Bought for exactly the same use case as @mmccarthy. I'm using the MiGit app but how much sensitive stuff could they really be stealing? As you say knowing I go to bed late and get up late, and knowing my heart rate presumably isn't that useful to anyone.

Would this

Nooo the flow was interrupted aha

c-c-c-combo... etc...

Any shots of the Everest?

right, I simply cannot decide. So can we have a vote?

I want a simple, instrument, pilot-ish watch with date window for under 1k that can be worn daily and dressed up/down as needed. I cannot decide between the DA36 on a leather/NATO or the ltd. edn. black sunburst Sinn 556i on bracket/brown leather.

Help.

DA36 for me

Not sure anyone has a Damasko on here yet?

Pioneer. B^)

Sinn are a great company. Damasko are horrific.

If you're undecided between the watches themselves, google some customer service and general business practices of Damasko. I can't recall specifics, but there has been enough posted on TZ-UK in the past that I've mentally filed Damaso away as a 'never buy from these people' manufacture.

Plus, I think that the Sinn is the nicer watch.

Great advice than you. I think I will both from Jura and return the DA36 when I don't like it.

Now all I need to do is decide between bracelet or leather. Seems like bracelet is 250ish alone, but the tan leather appears limited too.
