What time is it? Watches and horology

That's what I was thinking too!! Could knock a bloody shark out with that! Kapow

Dunno why but I'm a sucker for round date dials (though the above isn't circular).

^Gold numerals but tasteful Portugeeza

Christ, think I prefer it.

had the pleasure of going to the masterpiece show this evening (thanks vello). among the beautiful timepieces and other recession swerving delights was a company that specialised in made to your specification safes with built in watch winders and plush velvet lined trays for jewellery

They've gone drillium on the strap?

I need some recommendations for an analogue watch, with dual time zones, ideally 60's or 70's design, not fugly...

Thanks chaps. Its my favorite watch (that I own) at the moment. Its not as big as it looks in that photo though.

I'm going sea fishing this weekend. If I have a chance to have fisticuffs with a shark I'll keep you informed.

They're known as Rally straps

If my deal comes through I'm looking to get one. Not too keen on the humungous cut outs al la:

Just bought myself an original '53 Omega RAF issue. It wasn't cheap, but I can always sell, so thought I'd go for it. Will post pics later.

Just been looking at moody watches on a market in KL... Amazing quality, gonna wait 'til my stopover on the way home before I decide to pull the trigger...

Well jel

Looks like I may need to start looking for a new daily wear as the missus hates the smw. It has a magical way of scratching her anytime she's near. Sad as I love this as daily but hey, any excuse is a good excuse.
