What time is it? Watches and horology

@Jeromeo very nice, the Seamaster look insane, any other pics ?

@swedeee congratulation, they also made a jumbo daydate wich is on my radar..

Happy birthday by the way..

It is a 165.014 omega .
Crazy original Bakelite bezel.
Storage is in the bank still hopefully .
Waste really as should be getting worn by someone .

Looks great @swedeee!

Separate from wife. Buy watch you can’t really afford but buy anyway. Profit?

crocs ....

They're my dog walking crocs :-)

Great watch.

Hope everything works out for the best. Great watch. So classy.

thanks! yeah the 7017/0 is actually what I initially wanted, but a good example is £2500-£3500 depending on presence of boxes/og bracelet/dial/condition etc. In the end I didn't really want to spend that much (wedding next year) so went for a date only version which actually seem to be less common, but significantly cheaper at ~£1600 for this one

awesome watch man. sorry to hear about the relationship though

Seems like a good price for the condition. A classic.

Thanks guys.

Still think its a travesty that they've discontinued this. The new gilt handed version which I guess is the closest to this is nowhere near as classy.

Oh shit. Wonderful Ranchero. And the SM too but I've always loved Ranchero's. Great stuff!

Okay I stop spamming this thread now.

This looks rather nice...

That look a bit better than expected from Farer.

More for the lookbook 'watches with Captain Haddock jumpers'...

It was around longer than the white dial but it is a relative rarity in the sense that Rolex silver dials are usually a warmer champagne colour, not a proper colourless silver like this one. I don’t know how popular it was though, and maybe it also gets thought of as the “Domino’s Rolex”.

Give it a couple of years, they’ll bring a normal non-gilt silver one back.

Sorry to hear that man. Stay well.

Sending a virtual hug of @ChainBreaker proportions. Nice Santos JB, wear in good health.

The Holzer is my preference too. Then I showed my wife both options - I trust her in all style related things and she went for the Forstner 1450, she did buy me the watch in the first place.
@Regal thanks for the input too.

I'm probably going to end up buying both. Can't hurt to have a spare right?

Have a good one people 👍
