What time is it? Watches and horology

👍

This is quite a niche watch

I like that... Almost big enough.

I was like, what is this hipster shit, until i saw that it literally did what it said.

It literally works! 😁

Obligatory Kate Beaton post.

Don't get it

Not hipster enough

Says the man who appeared on a fair few, ahem, niche steampunk websites after a Tweed Run.

For anyone that likes watch straps with curved ends, there are some end of stock Hirsch Medici leather straps on ebay for £25 each - which is about a quarter of rrp I believe(?). They have most colours. The only catch is they only have 18mm lug width.

Nice. Which one is that?

SPB199J1, European LE of 2020 pieces. It was released at the end of last year so if you want one I would try and grab one soon.

Thanks. Just wondering. Already spent my watch allowance on 2 Seiko limited. That's. Actually more than my allowance allowed 😅

I'm looking for a nice watch to be my new daily. I like Sinn and I came across this one, I like the pearl dail but other than that I'm a bit worried that I'll get bored of it quickly...

If you're having doubts before you've even tried it on, move on.

Then buy another one like the rest of us.

It's a problem... But we know it.

Supermodel extradinare for October when things are starting to go dark and you're sad; for when you're in need of a little pick me up, just look me up, to get up. 😉

Allow it!

These are up cheap on sports persuit. I've never heard of them and the rrp may be hypothetical but inexpensive and i think this particular model is quite nice looking

Honeymoon period is strong with this one.

Still looking good

Meh lame AP copy

Yeah 100% just saying it looks quite nice for £125 and I'm currently about 20 grand short of the royal oak that i would really like at the moment. Casio do some similar shaped watches for the same sort of money so I'm comparing it to them rather than a genuine Audemars

Or Hublot maybe

Picked up one of those cheap Barton straps from Amazon.

Can't quite decide if I like the TA vibe. Went for a change as it usually lives on a grey perlon. But the actual strap seems nice.

Will live with it for a bit and then probably get one for my skx013.

Incidentally, if anyone has any strap colour suggestions for this watch I'd be curious. Matt green is an odd one to match.

Orange works with everything...
