What time is it? Watches and horology

I hear you - I’m just not lusting after this but for the the price I’m tempted… I may become fond of it… meh, don’t need…

Not sure, just weird. Winding felt “plasticky”… like not gritty or anything, but just like literally the cogs and wheels were made of plastic. Then the crown, I was able to pull it out a good 1mm out of the case and there was no positive engagement into the first position, where you should be able to set the date. I tried for a couple of minutes and literally couldn’t get into that first position. It would always go straight into the second position where you set the time. Guy said it was always like that, I know I’m too fussy and couldn’t live with it, so walked away even though it was a bargain…

Look at all this restraint being shown, what has this forum become?

Back on blue rubber for Black Friday

Interesting combo, haven’t seen that before.

I don’t like the rubber strap that comes with the watch (I’m not a fan of metal end-links on rubber/fabric/leather straps)

Black Friday “wavy marble” 5600 here, with a very black dial (and the usual inverted LCD “legibility”).

What happened to not buying watches? 😂

It was 50% off!! I’m sworn off the luxury stuff for the time being but a bullseye on a G-Shock that I’ve had my eye on for a while isn’t so bad. I can stop any time, honest.

Morning.

Happy Friday, just had greasy spoon breakfast and now crafting an email rant before a crappy car journey to the south west, the joys of middle age!

Love that I am going check how much they go for these days

Hoping to go a day wearing this without my kid mashing banana into it.
