What time is it? Watches and horology

Marcus is very much a Breitling guy. Gregg wears a Santos.

What's Monica wearing? A Seamaster Aqua Terra?

Picked this up on Tuesday from the loft it has been stored in since my old man passed away 7 years ago.

Wound it and it has been running -1min per day since. Definitely won’t have been serviced in the last 30 years. Remarkable really!

From what I can find it dates circa 1890 and is from the the Ansonia Clock Company in the states.

It’s lovelier in the flesh.
Nicely finished, I think Longines are incredible value for money.

Yeah, looks like a 36mm 2504.75.00.

That's really neat.

Ah yes, looks like there is another layout from the one I'd seen

Bit of watch viewing whilst the wife is shopping, quite like this

Don’t buy one without asking me for a forum price!
After all of you banging on about grand seiko to me and us then putting in our Windsor store I myself have yet to sell one, which is a bit embarrassing in front of my colleagues to be honest.

Like that Seiko on the last page 👌 sold my Pelagos 2 liner to a mate who really wanted one this week 😊🥲 happy Friday!

Your latent anti-Grand Seiko bias I'm sure.

Get a few of these in if you haven't already, the GS people tell me it is the top selling model currently.

A classic.

No I’m a convert , it was me who pleaded it’s case after my “road to Damascus” moment.
And I justified us taking it on by saying everyone on here would buy one.
To be fair it’s doing well it’s just me that hasn’t fucking sold one.

Sell it to me for cheap. Invest in yourself

Define “cheap” !!

Festive Friday!

I love you big man but please for the love of God, move your phone back and angle the dial towards your camera lens 😭😭😭😭

Jot down how much you want to invest in yourself. GS price - investment = cheap (part I'd put in).

Win for you, proud seller of a GS
Win for me, GS for cheap

I see no downsides at all!

v nice

Fantastic piece of history!

That’s wildly too clever for me .

Some really lovely watches this week. 16570 Explorer II is just so nice.

I haven’t really worn anything else in a while. Happy, much needed Friday peeps!

To continue the trend: I’ve always wondered what Monty Don wears to dig about in his garden:
