What time is it? Watches and horology

Similar to some Sinn dials too. I really like the look of it for £180.

That crown is a bit big

You're Crown is a bit big etc.

Touchy...

boo a friend at work got a black turtle... i wanted one but they were never sold here in the US

That is so hot

Wait, that’s the stock nato? Stunning

Anyone know where in the UK I can get a Seiko SRP777?

With that attire, I think it’s just a bit too seasonal..

If you wanna pay full whack, you can go to the Seiko boutique in Knightsbridge and have one immediately. It's really nice in the flesh.

Thanks! I saw one in LA for a really good price but bottled it, just trying to work if I can get one for near the same price here. Not likely as it was about £240, bummer!

Really tempted by the non-PVD on light brown strap. Good shout.

EDIT: backed. It's a great design and it's good to support those indies.

If you know you like it, I'd just buy one online?

Touche

Wanted I wanted something slimmer than my SKX007 for wearing with shirts, I was going to get a bauhaus style Orient Bambino but then I picked up this 1972 7005-2000 for very little money this week, runs very nicely, fits my wrist width well.

I think the strap is 19mm, any recommendations? Also I think the face and hands could do with a clean, where should I get that done?

Ooh, I hadn't seen that! Niiiiice. Thanks!

I am gonna be doing the same later this month. That cushion case was mad comfy.

Looks really nice! Personally, I wouldn't sweat getting it cleaned but entirely up to you. Could either be a very careful DIY job or perhaps Alsal could do it?

As for straps...

9/10 people regret getting a dial and hands cleaned. I really wouldn't risk it.

+1

The hands look fairly standard, so maybe they'd be OK. But a proper clean of the crystal and a delicate clean of the body with a new strap will make it look great.

Good input, thanks all.

@Well_is_it Im not sure if black maybe too dark, I did wonder about a brown.

Depends what grandad:architect ratio you’re going for...

Also looking at leather straps for the SARB. Those two stitch vintage style ones are lovely but a bit faddy.

haha, fair point, maybe i'll start with black then

Just been force fed an Omega Railmaster ad on my IG stories, they're really throwing some marketing francs at it, eh? How unappealing...

The watch, or marketing a watch?
I think it's an OK watch, it's just not very interesting.
