What time is it? Watches and horology

Superpecise was going on about those about 18 months ago.

fliegeresque - not keen on the day/date window tho

£60 looks like a bargain- am I missing something?

It's not the waterproof one, that's almost double the price.

But no, not missing anything.

Probably a massive repost:

I have the green one, off ebay 2 years ago for £38 (new from singapore). went swimming in the ocean and its fine.
much better than the overpriced russian trash.

And thanks for the advice re: straps, managed to get them on with a jewlers screwdriver

liking the look of this Seiko

Some-one rename this thread the seiko thread....

Seiko isn't even in the tags ffs.

Some-one rename this thread the seiko thread....

I've already said that, I'll tell the jokes round here

what is the general consensus with Bremont?
overpriced upstarts or quality timepieces?
not buying one just curios

They ain't cool.

(imo)

This is now up for sale if anyone is interested....

i thought you were happy with it?

It's an awesome watch but it's a little small for my wrist. I'm definitely keeping this one:

I've got a seiko watch that I wear everyday but it needs a clean. It's got a stainless steel strap. Whats the best way of getting all the black and grey residue out from the strap? I tried leaving it overnight with the strap soaking in water + some bicarb, but it didn't make much difference.

This is a lovely thread bty. Someday I'd love something mechanical and amazingly crafted. Love my seiko for the moment though.

Opticians ultrasonic cleaning tank?

Paint brush and 20 minutes if your time.
