What time is it? Watches and horology

Keyboard and watch Match?

And the desk surface and hoodie...

New watch day! Not to everyone's taste but that's life. Always amazed by the quality of the omega bracelets! Roll on Spring...!

Hmmm. Really wanna play a board game.

Like!

Thats a board game now? 😬

This arrived today, 38mm of Seiko-y goodness. It's the SKX013, a smaller variant of the SKX007 I had before, but which dug into my wrist (this doesn't).

I felt like trying another small(ish) watch, as well as a jubilee bracelet, so this chose itself.

That the Olympics one?

I love my Seamaster - wear it every day!

Rolex, for all their cult classics have produced some absolute howlers.

Today's howlers , tomorrow's heroes
Years later we'll wish we'd figured a way to have bought two.

God that's hideous. And the name... Sounds like a character in some teenage swords-and-sorcery fantasy novel.

Mate has that^ wid black face. :o$

Jimmy Saville's son ?

Alvin Stardust's son

It's the outer numbers that ruins it imo. The rest could work - a little like the Nautilus chrono

Lol

That's really nice. I'd only ever seen them with the rubber strap and they didn't look as good. Did you swap the strap or do they come with the metal bracelet?

Edit - I see there are other retailers than Creation. I can see it now.

I got it from Creation, with the bracelet on. To be honest it's pretty rattly and loose and it has folded end-links, but I like wearing it.

I bet I find out this is some crazy price.

$9.7k > $17k... not as insane as I had imagined: https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/the-glashutte-original-the-senator-excellence-a-handsome-three-hander-powered-by-a-new-caliber-family

Also comes in steel and white face:

For a stainless steel 3-hander? Oof.

If I had that sort of budget and wanted a new watch GO would be right up there on my shortlist. Although I prefer the Seventies.
