What time is it? Watches and horology

Pure pimping

Dude I know is selling this at £950. Serviced 6 or so months ago. Someone please buy it 😍

Cool that!

Did anyone get one of the colourful Sinn 556's from a year ago? Still enjoying it?

I did and immediately sold it (for what I paid for it). It was a hockey puck on my wrist and the included strap/clasp were awful.

Woah

1978 has the same starting day/calendar as 2023…

Hello watch experts - I need to get the battery changed for my wife, she has a Tank Francaise so want to take it somewhere decent, anyone got a recommendation for good value but reliable somewhere central? Thanks!

Tank Francaise

Looks pretty straight forward to me:

You might want to replace the gasket as recommended. They're cheap on Ebay (make sure you get the right one)

Interesting point, hadn't even considered that! Might well go for that, watch this space for post in a month when I've fucked it!

That's a cool find! Just a bit different to your usual stuff :-)

That's a shame.

Most discussion of the 556 suggests it's quite low profile, but yeah on that strap it looks silly.

Was tempted by the citrine yellow one, but the ghost position on the crown and display back slightly ruins it for me.

I dig the 556A. The display case back is probably the only thing I would change.

That is really ace. Great find. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry for the dredge, just catching up, but is that a Goldeneye watch face? And if so, how can i get it. I can already hear the wait music.

I dunno.

Someone posted it on the 25th anniversary release day.

I would imagine it's only available through resellers.

Hmmmmm……
Not sure.

I think I'd prefer it out of focus and in the dark.

My work colleague got the bronze one. I quite like it.
