What time is it? Watches and horology

Lovely watch. Wish I had bought that model instead of the power reserve one.

That’s nice. What strap is on it?

unworn

You’re literally wearing it.

Busted

Watch dealers, what a bunch of crooks.

...Everybody's got to ....MAKE - A - LIVING...

Speaking of crooks. I went to the post office to post a watch today. Planned on special delivery but the package was 200g too heavy so asked to be quoted for parcel force which was the only option that would insure for the appropriate amount.

Have a guess how much they wanted to post a £2650 watch from Greenwich to Tunbridge Wells? One hundred and fifteen fucking quid!

I'd run it down there for £110.

Id take you up on that but the man in the post office was happy to fiddle the scales and post it by SD anyway 😀

Thanks for the offer but Aroogah has kindly come to my assistant.

perfect for when he takes the watch out and it can still be delivered weighing the same amount it did at time of posting!

Ha! That's not a risk.

Could you not have put the watch in a travel case or similar and SD it. The rest by parcelfarce?
That’s how my Speedmaster came - it’s the one with the HUGE box.

Yes, but I don't have much time to do these things. I know it sounds silly but two trips to the post office and the time to buy a watch case and more packaging is a bit tough for me to do at the moment. Anyway, its all sorted.

Postage costs seem like robbery to me. Says the man who lost a Zenith Defy in the post - so actual robbery really!

Not mine btw

Well jell

What a beauty...

That might be the coolest object I have ever seen. Sell it to me?

I wondered how long it would be before that was pointed out.

Thanks. Have you checked your PMs recently. 😁

Wow

Alas not mine... But still for sale
