What time is it? Watches and horology

I didn't see the price but that's twice what I expected

Stingray straps make me sad

Are you referring to the Studio underdog? I think thats just Epsom Calfskin

59k Swiss francs I thought, which is closer to £55k than £65k, unless I'm ignoring a likely VAT hit

Mad! Seems like a sound guy.

The green nubbin seems incongruous

It's time to say good morning

Happy Friday. It looks like this is staying so I may as well wear it.

Like.

Garden attacking in a rare bit of sun. Unfortunately the watch may be a bit broken. If you shake it you can hear something spinning / moving quite loudly and I don’t think the automatic bit is self -winding. Expensive fix? I just leave this one in Ireland so it’s a bit of a beater.

Automatic means self-winding. I think it's an STP clone of an ETA 2824 and the rotor on them is quite noisy, apparently.

Has it always been like that?

Not that I recall but I use it quite infrequently. I’ll have to pay proper attention to it for the next few days, but the other day it had stopped whilst I had been wearing it for a couple of days which I don’t recall it doing before.

Ok, that doesn't sound right. Might need looking at. Possibly a new movement, unfortunately

Lovely! Is it a vintage military issued Hamilton? Incredible condition if so. Wish they made the modern versions in smaller sizes (<36mm)

Thanks, bit of a pain re possible new movement but I’ll test it for a few days to see how it goes.

Sporting this Seiko Solar today.

Nice 👍🙂

If it is broken it's a shame as that's a lovely watch. Should get it seen too

Didn’t suppose I need a yachtmaster on the little sailboat.

Impulse purchase on a friend's stag do, rather pleased with it (& the fact it isn't another Seiko).

Edit: not a slight on Seiko - love them - but I could end up only Seikos if I didn't try & cast my net a bit wider.

like that, dead interesting, (did I just say that about a watch!! yep..)

Hi, quick Q someone who doesn’t know much about watches — recently bought a used Citizen Eco-Drive BM8550-14A for my son and the day window has both German and English but w odd logic. We think Ger between 01-03 at night. Is this a thing or a broken watch? Thanks!
