DW5600 bullbars

nice idea... maybe i need one.

They come under “wire guard”

cheers!

Ok, it does look really good in sunlight but it’s not different enough as a watch from my black steinhart. The rule is one in, one out and no-one’s going to buy a well-used ocean one, so this has to go. I want back what I paid, so £520 posted inc a forum donation.

Good looking watch

Casio UK 02082089567 sell spares cheaper than anywhere else inc bullbars etc - you just have to research what model number you want the parts for.
I built up a DW-5030 in official spares for cheaper than the retail =]

I paid a fiver for the 5600 bullbars from China. Took a week to arrive.

That is cheap, probably not much different from the official bars either.
Casio UK is worth using for official parts like case/strap/module etc tho

Wow you bought it ? Your watch purchasing/selling history is off the chain. Buy your dream watch and be done.

I have my dream watch already, need to wait for new dreams to come. In the meantime, what can I say... I like watches, I'm sorry?

(I know, I'm bad, as soon as the weather gets better and I get out cycling, I'll stop!)

Sorry that was a bit judgmental on my part. You always come with great watches so thanks for showing them on here.

No problem.

Where were we... brand new SLA023 at a discount anyone? :-)

😂

Don't listen to the naysayers! You like watches, buy them. Flip them. Do whatever you want with them. I enjoy watching the process. Great watches too.

@jv shame on you watch shaming in a watch thread.

😂

Also, you guys should see some of my mates from the watch forum. If you think I’m bad... don’t know what that makes them!
I’m not considered a flipper there haha

Which one of these two do you guys like the most and why?

I like the first one more, looks more classic, although the second is probably more “Breitling”. Aren’t these bracelets like way more shiny than on these pictures?

I really like that .
It may be too small for me , but it looks great

Superocean all day for me, but then I prefer divers’ watches to pilots’ watches.

The diver bracelet is brushed, the Avenger (awful name) bracelet is PCL.

The Breitling bracelets are pretty decently made, the slanted centre links are kind of funny, think they might bother me after a while.

Stealth edit!

I didn’t realise they’re in stock now, guess I need to drop my price a bit, looks like you could get a new one for ~£490

So definitely the diver for me then :-) fully polished breitlings look quite cheap to my eyes. Especially, after they get a bit of wear. They remind me of a vintage Tag quartz watches that look like the Animal watches from the 90s or whenever they were made (not that there’s anything wrong with either obviously if that’s someone’s taste).

First one... Less busy.

And I've never liked the bezel on the Avenger. But I like the bracelet more on the avenger.

I prefer the diver. but that stupid hour marker next to the date window is annoying.

Get a spendy seiko instead.
