What time is it? Watches and horology

Also it's a longines so somehow the lug to lug will be HUGE.

I love the fact that Helson has become the (un)official watch of LFGSS, so much love for that brand. we should approach them to sponsor a few events not related to cycling of course. That would be too obvious.

My everyday watch search is done, I did consider Helson but opted for something different. I’ll post here once it has safely arrived..

no disrespect to anyone with one - but I really do not see the attraction of Helsons

I'll be the dissenting voice then, Helsons do nothing for me. :P

Edit: ha, beaten to it

I thought Smiths/Timefactors were the unofficial!

I thought Seiko were

Wait it's not G-shock ?

Seiko divers are the official watch of watches.

Certainly quite a few Turtles on here.

Tudors are the official LFGSS Golf Club watch

Amen

It looks reasonable in the video that teddy baldasaresadadrsd did with Longines. Still think they look good.

Anyone know anywhere I could get an Accutron serviced for a vaguely reasonable cost? Last time I had it done I think I paid about £30, just got quoted £200 plus parts... not that surprised given age/weird electronic stuff, but it's more than I can justify spending. The day display is stuck but otherwise it's working fine.

I have a Tudor, Seiko and a Helson.
Not a fan of Timefactors, so won't get the gold membership.

(Application for Golf Club pending)

I thought this was the GS9 club?

House!

So I was sufficiently tempted by a 20% off code to check out one of these. I was planning to send it back but I actually really like it and the white dial with dark hands and markers looks great IMHO. Very good size and shape and even the bracelet is better than I was expecting.

Will keep it and move one of my turtles on. Anyone interested in a mint condition SRP775 let me know…

Nice. Those batons have a pleasing chonk to them.

Nice! And the date window is acceptable.

Yeah, I think short of having proper applied markers and a framed date window like the vintage model it's based on (and given Seiko are committed to lume at 3 to keep their dive watches ISO compliant) this is about the best solution, other than no date. But then Seiko divers have always had dates.

really good looking watch

I did check this, due to its being 37mm, the lugs is not too bad for a longines at 47mm I think.

You got it! I thought it is Seiko most promising watch this year

Yeah… I was sworn off midrange Seikos, especially divers… It just does what it does really well.

Time to sell stuff (I always say that, but this time I really have to, especially because I think the SKX GMTs are also landing soon).

Looks good mann
