What time is it? Watches and horology

I seem to be exclusively wearing cheap Casios of late

Wearing this piece of retro futuristic madness from Omega today.

With the matching dash lights in the background, I see you!

That's a weapon!

It is a unit! I almost never wear it tbh.

Happy frosty Friday all. Loving this elegant little blighter.

Awesome

Oof

Anyone on here got a Seiko Bullhead? Already have a Pogue and feel like I'd like another 70s Seiko Chrono.

Sounds like they're quite bulky and easy to ding, any opinions?

Should I also be considering something else from that time in a similar look? eg Tissot Seastar Navigator from that era is an option. There was a nice one on here before Xmas but I was too slow/indecisive.

Yes! Should get this out more often!

I don't have one and haven't seen one in person but did see one come up at auction a while back but can't find the images. It looked hefty for sure! Didn't initially realise that the case is quite a bit larger at the pusher side. I'd prefer the Tissot out of the two options personally.

Damn, that is funky!

I really like this. Very cool watch.

On another note, I’m willing to let this go for as little as £1550 (I’ve got the LE Targa Florio dial too, although no hands), so please do get in touch if you’re on the fence. Still under warranty until August 2025.

@inchpincher has (had?) a Kakume and a nice Jumbo that I think were for sale at some point. Don’t know if he sold them.

I do love the Kakume! Might be interested in that if it's still knocking around @inchpincher

Yeah a decent example of the Tissot is definitely one I'm considering. Also quite distinctive.

I know what you mean. I have pretty spindly wrists and was concerned it would be too big a unit altogether, but it’s actually a nice fit. Definitely seems to stick out more on that photo than it does irl…

The Kakume is regrettably sold but still have the jumbo ~ £400 in working order but needs a service really.

I was a good boy last year and halved my collection but still keeping my eyes peeled as the vintage prices drop to grab the couple of elusive grails. I'm looking at you Heuer.

This guy has one for sale currently.
