Loving the MegaQuartz... Sure STS or Simon Freese will get that looking and working as good if not better than new...

Probably a stupid comment, but they do chew through batteries in MegaQuick time....

Too hot for the leather strapped watch at the moment

My favourite watch lately.

By the way, if anyone’s looking for a mint, hesalite Speedmaster (the discontinued one) - let me know.

@hugo7 I'm selling a casioak if you're interested (£60 - basically unworn with all packaging etc - it's the stealth one)

My timepiece of choice today - i can heartily recommend this padded tropic strap from watchgecko by the way:

First face to face job interview in longer than I can remember.

Good luck. If I were interviewing you and you walked in wearing a sweet Datejust like that we’d probably spend the whole time talking about watches.

Anyone selling a gshock?

I would have said yeah, but I’ve put this on this morning and am really enjoying it now.

I've been dabbling in modding old Seiko's again. This one is from the lates 70's with a 7025 movement bought on here from @Sumo. New crystal and switched the dial and hands for a more military style look.

That looks great! Like a whole different watch.

that is really cool

Tbh most of the time I don't set the date function on automatic watches. Sometimes I can't even be bothered setting the time... Lazy

Back with old favourite after all the recent mixing it up .
And going for second legible photo in a row .

Only to fail again.
Maybe I should stop drinking at breakfast time.........

Most of it is in focus - that's all I can say about that photo.

Why do you have lightbulbs from the 1940s in your shop? Is there anywhere outside you could snap a quick photo?

They are state of the art LED .
But you know I hadn't though of that.

This looks great! I'm wearing my Helson a lot this summer but it doesn't look anywhere like this... maybe I should go to the beach more often haha

Phone cameras struggle to focus too close, best to hold it further away and crop

They are state of the art LED

I assume they were designed specifically to give off the glow of a single candle across the other side of the room.

If you're able to change the temperature of them, try changing to 4000K or 5000K as it's more like daylight.

They are better in real life .
And there are loads of them .
I think the problem may stem , as we have previously established, with ineptitude and a steam powered iPhone 6 .
Hey it usually gives people two things to discuss . The semi blurred but lovely timepiece , and the hysterically bad photographic representation of it.
Won’t give up tho.
And I swear they didn’t use to be this bad .
