What time is it? Watches and horology

Yes please!

This is a lot more impressive on camera than in person.

Was rather taken with the blue dial on these so I bought one.

Quite fancying one of these. More gunmetal in the flesh.

Anyone know how high they sit compared to an SKX?

New game: Guess the watch from the lume.

Anyone know how high they sit compared to an SKX?

It's about a mm thicker. It's a bigger watch than an SKX007 though, kind of a different thing. They wear surprisingly well, the sides of the case are heavily scalloped and the lugs are very short.

That particular model would look amazing on a blue Isofrane atmo.

Thanks, I'll need to go try one on at some point.

Shame about the lugs I was hopeful to transfer over my murts starp.

Oh, pretty much any 22mm strap should fit, by short I mainly mean the distance from one set of lugs to the other, relative to the width of the watch. They sort of tuck under the bezel a bit. Means it doesn't feel too large on the wrist.

It’s Friday, and I’m a bit late to the game. Having been ill for two weeks I have lost my streak on my Apple Watch so the pressure to wear it is now off allowing me to wear other watches (at least for a while). So today, I will mostly be wearing ...

Having a nose… some good watches in that offer. Like the new Monster.

That black STO turtle as well.

Lush.

Did you see my post for £65 off on these??

Edit: Sorry, @Regal covered.

Yeah not too bad at all. They're getting more variants in now which is good.

Great dial on this!

Off to Berlin for the marathon this weekend 🏃🏻‍♂️

How's the black Rimowa holding up? My silver one has got a few scars from use which I quite like, but they're hard to see unless you look for them.

Haha don’t! 🤦🏻‍♂️ If you stare hard enough at it you will scratch it but I don’t mind that. The silver one is a more sensible choice but I’m a total diva so decided to go against advice.

A friend has a knock off one she bought in Lo Wu - and side by side you can’t tell the difference. She paid £80 for hers.

Also @Dammit that was a great round of golf. Shall we head over to the bar?

I meant to say, this is very nice. I’m biased towards the silver dial but all the others are well chosen, the green and blue are both really nice.

You picqued my interest so I took a side by side shot of mine.

Prospex on left, Helson SD 40 on the right.

Taken from 1m but cropped.

A lume-off! That Helson is nuts actually. Do they use Super Luminova?

Another NATO arrived, like this color way as well.

Nice one, although a bit big for my wrist probably.

Yes, c3

I love this...
