What time is it? Watches and horology

Keep meaning to buy another. It would be my third, forth if you include a reduced, I really should give up selling them.

I wear my Speedmaster most often of the watches that I have. It’s a very appealing watch.

The Cartier drive has been on my mind since its launch. If i do sell the speedmaster i'm going straight for it. If not then i'm saving (and hopefully) it will be my next watch

It’s a very different watch .
Am currently reading a history of Cartier written by the granddaughter of the family in a bid to get back into the feel of the fine jewellery market as I leave the very watch biased jewellers I currently work for .
Been there 22 years but I’m opening a new store in Oxford for another independent in early spring .
Still be doing vintage and preowned mind you .

Whats the book? I'll get it to get in the mood :)

Edit. This one?

Wild Friday night for me

That’s it . It’s really fascinating.
I started out in the trade working for a small independent in South Wales selling diamonds and fine jewellery and sort of fell into watches , which will always be a passion . But I am beginning to resent the way the major brands treat their retail partners . Vintage and preowned has been my passion for a good couple of years . Not that I’m averse to the soap opera of new mind you ...

Have a great weekend. I’ve put on this charming, little piece. Anyone’s got an interesting 19mm strap? It’s quite difficult to find a decent one in that lug width. Let me know 👍

Watch Gecko make a few 19mm straps. I’ve got one of their suede handmade straps in brown and it’s lovely. Rios1931 also make quite a few in that size and sell through eBay.

BEAST - ALSO, way to big for your wrist, soooo... I'll sen you my address

New subs actually sexier

Am I late seeing that Tissot is doing a 35mm PRX? Doubt I’ll buy one but still, nice to see things getting a little smaller

Should be day date night 😂😂

apropos of nothing

Just a reminder… 1861 hasn’t been to the moon either. 3861 is just as much a moon watch. Ie it isn’t.

So was the Batman real?

But it has at least been to space .

True. And 3861 has too on Bezos wrist, not much of a selling point I grant you

I could help

Not really space was tho was it whatever the classification is.
Granted it was really really high.

People have been begging for a 35-37mm. Kudos for Tissot listening.
Would've gotten one if they made one with that black textured dial.

Faithful pre bond today.

Edit: Misaligned bezel and wrong date
