What time is it? Watches and horology

goes well with heroin

Problem with Gold has always been comlimentary. It doesn't stand up on its own.

Christ knows why they thought bimetallic would work back in the day.

Think it was 3/4 down the page

Couldn't agree more. And I'd say gold is becoming more popular again judging by some of the catwalk stuff I've seen recently. It'll probably take a while to filter to men's, but I'll report back if I see anything interesting at London Collections in June.

Lots of rose gold watches being pushed at the moment I think.

I don't hate many things, but there's a short list of things I do hate; cauliflower, the feel of your finger tips when you've spent too long in the bath, and rose gold

So, tl:dr.

What's the crack with getting a Tudor Pegaros in the U.K.? Not possible to get a new one?

Or, do I have to go "second-hand" from Blowers?

Hmmm

Nothing wrong with gold in my view, although I wouldn't go for that big square omega. Don;t agree its dress-watch only material. Its certainly a modern trend that mens jewellery should to be made of 'manly' silvery metals.

^agreed, rose gold is a bit much.

I would wear a bimetallic datejust just to say a big up-yours to everyone.

Why, have you got one? Dibs.

I've seen a few places online that claim to be selling new ones with papers but they're not authorised dealers and I've no idea how reputable they are.

Really?

What's not to love:

What do you mean when you say "not complementary"? If you mean based on your skin tone then 100% agree.

^ Very bad example IMHO

that is a fucking rank watch, before you even get to the bi-metallic issue

everything that can be wrong, is - bracelet, numerals, diamonds - argh

Yep, hugo, that one is a wrong un. Love the other, although prefer champagne dial for max swag.

Bimetal Rolexes all look moody to me...

Gold is an accent/highlight material imo.

So needs to be used sparingly and with contrasting colour as base (black, navy, burgundy etc).

I'm assuming when we talk about bi-metallic it's in relation to the straps, case and bezels, no? Using things like gold hands, faces, etc. is usually done well imo.

I think fashion and tastes account for a huge amount. Being born in the 80s meant that in the 90s me and my mates thought that absolutely everything between 1969-89 was fucking hideous and beyond shit. I still think gold on the right skin tone looks good - ie dark. But if you're light skinned then I just don't think yellow gold ever really suits. People just get used to it out of convention.

A little bit, ultimately it is just good or bad taste. That from a 70's child. B-)

Ha!

^^ But surely you now gush over depeche mode and the Pixies?
