What time is it? Watches and horology

^ Ding ding ding and the Rolex wins!

One more to throw into the mix

No more bi-metal, pls...

Can't afford a full gold one, sorry. Will try harder.

More lord and king quartz!

The only bi-metal that's acceptable to me...

^ excuse the random cammo background; on a train and that's what they've decided would make a good table top.

I'm fancying this on a camo NATO

Someone locally was selling a Gulfmaster in white. Was sorely tempted. I loved the G-Shock I had as a kid.

Well that's a co-axial master chronometer which makes it orders of magnitude superior to the Rolex, let alone the Tudor.

But it would be better in steel. It's too stylish a watch to ruin with bi-metal. So go with the Rolex because gaudy tastelessness is one of their things.

Do like. About the only two-tone that I would entertain, apart from the BB on leather. I think the rose gold that Omega uses helps a lot.

The game is up.

I have just ordered in a new bi-colour sub and will maybe buy a speedy Mk2 and a Seamaster 300 in steel one day in the future. I prefer those guys in steel by far.

Amen...

PS @kattiep will be at le effra and le Reej on Saturday... With the asset... I'll get Matt to grab it if you aren't around...

Boom, won't lie I'm more than a bit green eyed. I think that's a choice purchase, if you're dropping that amount coin on any asset you have to consider its depreciation (or if you're lucky/shrewd, appreciation).
I hope you've got a safe.

I'll be seeing Matt on Tuesday, so that's a good plan.

Not entirely sure who that is, but it is allegedly a Rollie.

Neetnails?

Dad!

Haha.

Okay he's s probably not wearing a bi-metal but this snap of Robert Wagner captures the understated chic-ness of what would be (in my opinion). 1965 small beach house party, long sleeve tee,wayfarer sunglasses , white shorts. done.

Under the cuff, of course.

People have always told me that I'm just like Dr King and a small 1965 beach house party rolled into one.

Pretty sure he was a regular poster in the Rolex forums, seemed a nice guy, very keen on Rolex, like very very keen. I think he passed away a few years ago.

So, I got over excited and bought one today.

Thanks for the opinions everybody. Both positive and negative.
