What time is it? Watches and horology

The reviews are crap but this site is great for playing the field.

Any further suggestions on cases? I don't really fancy a pelican case. I'm thinking of this possibly http://www.watch-tool.de/html/watch_boxes.php?id=0501c5

Any other suggestions received though. Also, any suggestions on places in London, preferably central, actually selling them. I'd like to have a look at a few. Cheers

seems interesting/mostly nice/not just blatant advertising

Really starting to feel I need a Breguet in my life. Type XXI is calling me.

Rotary editions 800 automatic with analog face and a citizen eco drive E811 chronograph 😀 guess the work horse!?!

The Kickstarter-Straton finally arrived yesterday. Takes some time getting used to it being quite large for my tiny wrist, but I like it.

My mother would like a watch with a nice clear face- white face, black hands(?), legibility is key. Any suggestions?

Every day Swiss rail clock?

Mondaine?

Braun?

Swatch?

Or more dress?

Swatch might work

Anyone know a good watch repair shop near clerkenwell?

@Pistanator recommends a little yellow-fronted place just along from Fuckstons.

Ahah, so that's what the yellow fronted place is. Will check it out, thanks!

No worries.

Alternatively, there's Alsal to check out too.

Thanks for the suggestions all. 70s Omega will be going to Swiss Time Services next week. :-)

They do a superb job from what I have seen. We'd like some before and after shots please ;-)

Good shout - they're not cheap, but they are very, very good.

Smiths PRS-27?

Timex?
Not the most prestige but solid and reliable.
And they have the indiglo light.

I usually don't like too many complications but this is nice. Needs keyboard shot though. :)

Ugly Xmas Ripley watch keyboard shot.

Do you work on a submarine or something?

Not quite. The keyboard is part of a radar system. It's also an ergonomic nightmare, but that's another story.

Nice watch and all but DAT KEYBOARD.

@radar - very jelly. I tried to get one but wasn't prepared to pay the instantly inflated ebay prices.

Is you ATC?
