  • Shit me.

    In a weird way this is in the top 10 Seikos for me.

  • In the dark nobody knows you’re wearing a Steinhart... maybe.

  • What are the other nine?

  • Now that would be telling. 😎

  • Late for Friday pics but I was busy becoming a dad yesterday, which I think is a fair excuse.

    Anyway; new watch day (finally)

    Added an email notification and got pinged a few days later.

  • Looking good!

    Congratulations!!

  • Awrsome! Congratulations!

  • Are you gonna tell them their birth prevent you from posting it on the forum?

    Congratulations too! How’s the legiblity? It look quite hard to read looking at photos of that watch,

  • It’s basically illegible from a quick glance but it looks good.

    The greyed hands make it easier though. Don’t try to read the day of the week though.

  • An idea from Singletrack forum - would there be interest here?

    Anyone who is playing buys the best watch they can for between £20 and £30.
    Any age, style, type of watch but it must tell the time, (so no stopwatches or mechanical pedometers however cool they are). Must be working and not completely wrecked.
    You don’t get to keep the watch you buy, you send it off to another player who will be randomly allocated by HAL-9000 and their name and address supplied to you by PM.
    You will receive another watch in the post from your associate Horologist.
    When that arrives, post up some pictures of the watch, tell us about it and what you think of it.
    If you recognise the watch as the one you posted, you don’t have to confess it was you that sent it, (saves embarrassment if the recipient hates it) but you can of you wish.
    Once all watches are swapped, each player will vote for their favorite, (maybe favorites 2 if there’s enough players) and HAL-9000 will collate the scores and declare the winning watch.
    Watches should be supplied to the recipient by the end of August 2020, that should be enough time to find and get a watch sent even from abroad and with slow post if you get it from eBay.
    Watches can be sourced from anywhere, charity or ‘antique’ (junk) shops, the internets, Hatton Garden safety deposit boxes etc.
    You need to let me know your name and address (probably that’s best by PM) as soon as you can to join in.

  • Sounds interesting.

  • Sounds fun

    Scouts eBay for £30 watches
