If only that hour hand was similar in design to the minute hand. The shape of the hour hand is a no-go for me personally.

Genuinely thought that square was part of the face and not the hand until you point it out.

How the fuck u get a day off.

Even my holidays are with the inlaws now. 😎

Longines Grande Vitesse , can’t understand why this was discontinued, was a popular watch.
Taken in part ex again , been a busy boy this week .

Out of interest - how much would that Pelagos be?

£2700 .

always 1 click out.. :-)

I tried one on at LHR , it seemed to sit off the wrist quite away .
Nice though

If that was the LHD I think I would have bought it

always 1 click out.. :-)

Trick is to balance it between the clicks :D

Less is more! That rocket POC (Oldskool LFGSS in the House!)

If you want one, I'll grab you a fresh one in duty-free next week.

You like the LHD over the BB58?

What they like side by side?

Yeah, I definitely prefer it. Knowing the date is important to me. Which is highly amusing as this one is 2 days out of date.

I love that the date is the right size and position as the markers. Aesthetically pleasing!

Anyone seen the Seiko Prospex Kinetic GMT SUNxxx in the flesh?

Is it as insanely beefy as the pics and specs make it look?

I bought this Hirsch Extreme strap for about £75 a few years ago but it just didn't look good on the watch I intended it for.

It suddenly dawned on me that it's perfect for my Digi Tuna after a mm or two is shaved off.

Very nice digital

Thanks. They are pretty handsome.

It really irked me that I spent the money on a decent natural rubber strap and had nothing to wear it on so I'm pretty glad that the combo works.

How do you use a rotating bezel with a digital watch?

About as often as I do with my mechanical watches. One draw back is that you can only adjust it relative to minutes so you can't use it for keeping track of something taking longer than an hour.

Obviously a stopwatch is better for tracking minutes than the bezel but I still find it useful
