What time is it? Watches and horology

Different watch but I tried on an SRP777 the other day. Think it’s 43/44 also. Looked very ‘normal’ on my 6.75 inch wrist. The shape of the case had a lot to do with that as it’s almost aquare. I tried on a normal shaped seiko diver, the cheaper 62MAS re-issue I can’t remember the name of. Smaller case but the shape of it made it look bigger than the larger 777. So I’d probably try it on first if you’re worried. I’ve heard Joma are pretty shit for returns.

yeah that's the risk, Long Island Watches (official Seiko) are out of stock... maybe I can just order it anyway. I don't need it now, just really like it

My everyday watch is 43, I'm sure it'll be fine!

Got to fondle a friends new AP Royal Oak this evening. Really impressed up close, probably the nicest bracelet I’ve ever seen.

Quick thoughts please. Big monster SKA293 boxed £100 in a cash for gold shop in the town I'm visiting. Looks good condition with hefty bracelet.

Edit: pretty certain it is a SKA293 not 291, if it makes much difference

If you really like it £100 is not the end of the world or are you looking to sell on?
I’ve tried to stop buying multiple cheap watches and save for something special.

I was after a monster diver a while back but preferably auto... then gauss issues with my little diver put me off auto a bit.

Not sure at £100 there's any benefit in selling on, though I'm aware some people get hard-ons for lefties. But I was wondering more for quality since I quite liked its ridiculous size.

Green with envy. 😎

Passed on the leftie. The boss reminded me of reason and logic.

You oddly match your avatar.

Watch looks 🔥🔥🔥

Halios Seaforth preorders are open...

Do like. Is the whole case and bracelet brushed?

Yes

camera pans out

All a bit too Wes Anderson for me. (Not jealous, honest)

Its a cracker of a watch but I really don't get the denim dial thing.

Looks stunning on the herringbone strap.

That strap looks great – where's it from?

Omega. Option with the Railmaster, I think.

very very nice that

Is it me/the photo, or is that a different dial?

Same dial, looks very different in differing light conditions

SARB arrived! It's fucking nice. Need to get the bracelet resized but very impressed with it. Photos don't really do it justice.
