What time is it? Watches and horology

Gotcha.

Nothing wrong with an ETA, especially for that money.

My flags has gained barely 3 seconds in a month, and that’s an ETA. Can’t say fairer than that.

Looks like my Seiko (ish)

Yeah, it's an ETA C07.111 which is a chronometer rated 2824-2. It's more than Tissot label putting me off because I associate them with high street jewelers. Then again I have no shame in only wearing a Seiko. PS the movement was never a concern of mine.

@hugo7 - yes, I've tried one on. They are indeed boxy and high.

email best for you buddy?

Waiting for flight to J’berg - tried on a JLC Polaris in WoS and was v taken with it.

That looks like an IWC....

Sorry yes - couldn’t take a pic of it in the shop so this is just a pic of mine 😎 as it’s friday

TimeFactors planning a white dial variant of the 36mm Everest...

Is there any point at all in posting my Apple Watch every Friday? I think not, but it is my every day wearer.

I’m still pondering regarding buying a ‘good’ watch. The more I think about it, the less sense it makes but I still want something. It will look nice in the house.

Have a good weekend all.

Double-watching is a thing. Apple Watch for fitness tracking etc, and a watch-watch on the other wrist for telling the time.

Still a sexy watch...

For a moment thought you were loosing your marbles!

Which one you try? Love that range.

Polaris is a great design but my stupid graphic design brain can’t unsee that they’ve used Arial for the 15/30/45 on the rehaut. Arial on watches is such a problem for me, it’s why I could never buy a Black Bay, even the 58.

to further ruin your day

the thinnest watch now goes too...

Bvlgari

thats right..... the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Tourbillon Automatic

I’d wear that down the pub, maybe on a nato.

Sister in law is the manager of a few sunglass hut stores in Germany and they often get customers asking for “bee vee ell gari”.

I had seen that. My wife would argue though. She reckons i would look like a dick. I won’t be arguing with her!

Just wow.

Cracking, but I prefer the non tourbi version

The carbon minute repeater is the one.

There are… ways

Popped the monster on for a change.

I have seen that before. Not so sure I’m keen on the look. Definitely not with a bracelet.
Thanks for the pointer though.

it's all gotten a bit buzz...

Got this through the post this morning for my SKX013. It’s an MN Strap, a single pass strap made from elasticated parachute strapping as supplied to the French armed forces since the 60s. Literally the most comfortable strap I’ve ever worn, I’ll be buying more.
