What time is it? Watches and horology

True... My neighbour has just gone down to Sydney for a boy's weekend, they were going down for the rugby... That got cancelled so they thought they'd go to the pub instead... Pubs got shut down but they still flew down, fucking nuts...

As I type this his son is having a party over the road... Like, right now... Straya is doomed...

So

If it comes down to it which watch stays on your wrist For the seiko of all others

I’m gonna loot the GS store, obvs

Whilst everyone else is smashing up Rolex

(Moderators: I’m joking)

Fuck, are you people crazy?

What would be the point? Those stores are empty.

Tough call, the Rolex would have the most bartering value but it’d be the Squale for sentimental reasons.

New strap by the way.

Grab the watches in for servicing

FWIW the Knightsbridge Seiko store keeps a good stock.

Unless it's been cleared out now.

One watch to rule them all... Had to be the same watch all holiday; beaches, "tramp" (walking to normal people), city break & wedding.

G Shock GX56. Solar powered, indestructible, keeps good time.

Would wear it when I go looting for more watches, can't be surviving the apocalypse with just the one really.

J/k, I’ve worn a dive watch to a wedding myself.

TBF the 300M is a pretty good candidate for a one watch collection.

I think I have an option for most situations now.

Two of those watches share a movement.

What is your order of preference? Your Speedy wins for me.

Solar is a good call .
If it quits ticking ..........

I've had the Speedmaster the longest, worn it the most, and like everything about it.

I'd say that the Submariner ties with the Speedmaster in terms of order of preference - be interesting to see whether that's still the case in a year or so.

I'd not really thought of Seamaster vs Railmaster, if I had to sell one it'd be the Railmaster I think, but that's because the Seamaster is a limited edition rather than a dislike of the Railmaster.

I am struggling with Sea vs Rail, actually - interesting question. I'd probably put the Seamaster first, simply because it's the watch I'd wear with a suit (not that I wear a suit anymore tbh) and the others aren't quite as suitable. But it's very close between the two of them.

The Seiko is what I wear when doing DIY and so forth.

Is it a maximum of 5 for the ceremony?? Got my wedding in July and trying to figure out whether to move it and lose out on the depisit, fees and all or pray that it's peaked before that and they loosen a bit on the regulations.
