What time is it? Watches and horology

Isn't the Nautilus a puny 36mm case?

The Daytona at 38 is as low as I'll go...

Edit. Might be earlier / ladies size. 🙄

Bought this on a whim yesterday.. arrived in under 24 hours.. I’m not sure the mark-up over a ‘normal’ peli case but I would recommend http://www.thecasefarm.co.uk for speedy service. There’s spacers behind each section which could be modded slightly for spare parts etc.

That G-Shock is awesome

Wonder if anyone has any suggestions; I've got an old Rado voyager which was in great nick, until I cycled too much wearing it and lost the crown. Basically it's been in at a watchmakers for ages and I need a new stem and crown.

I've looked on ebay but the prices have gone up so much in the last year, even for parts, which I dont even know would be correct.

Any suggestions on where else to look?

You seem to have miscalculated, there aren’t any empty slots to fill...

Purposefully went low in an effort to move toward quality rather than quantity.. and limit purchases.

this is nice!! and great price!

Looks like a good read: Vintage Rolex: The largest collection in the world https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1911663127/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_FLurFbK8ENZY9

I'm selling my Longines BigEye, anyone interested? It's a mint 2020 model with original box and papers and all that. Great watch and all but I'm going down to two in my ''collection'' and I hope to stay there as the watch thing got out of hand.

Are you buying it? If so can you give some feedback when it’s released. I still think ‘The Watch’ by Alex Barter is my choice of coffee table read.

Yeah I probably will. I have a couple of books somewhere and they are mostly disappointing or boring.

what??? why??

sounds like you want to regret something later

Going down to two watches! Decisions have been made and I have purchased the new Tudor BB58 Blue. There's no way of trying them on, so I just had to buy it. We'll see if it stays. The Longines is absolutely mazing but after the recent events on this thread and people getting the 50m WR watches too wet in the rain I am not sure I can live with the 30M!

Just keep it for a year and not worry about it. If you still feel the same then, sell it.

Also, dibs BB58

you want to sell cause others are getting their watches wet... oh the lols

Yup! I’m a postman and I don’t want to have something on my wrist that I’m concerned about if it rains.

:-)))

Yup! I’m a postman...

A postman? In a forum where people are discussing 40k kitchen renovation?

The BB58 is a really nice watch. Whenever I wear it I'm really happy about it's lack of heft. No date annoys me though.

And how you feel about the pelagos?

30m is shit but unless a tropical monsoon hits out of the blue I think it would be ok under your cuff. But if your set on selling, how much?

Good. Nice and light.

That new blue bb58 is killer, I didn’t know it was out
