What time is it? Watches and horology

Always look forward to your posts @JAHtim

That is a bit saucy.

Very cool indeed. Luck to get a pin badge these days!

True but like the symmetry and case on the Tudor and kind of gone off of the 4 o'clock crown position on the Seiko. Better bracelet etc but obviously killer value on the Seiko.

So, I’ve been busy. I’m down to 2 watches now, trying to find a daily. Looking at Sinn, but can’t find anything that I fancy a lot for less than £1.5-2k. The 656 is proving very hard to find in decent condition. I’m thinking about a Seiko SPB again.
I’m a bit fed up with flipping too... help

Which SPB?
Doesn't @howard sport one of them?

I have a slightly weird fascination for Rolex stone dials. This new 'Eisenkiesel' dial looks amazing, however I'm not a fan of the diamond set hour markers.

Yes, he does. And I believe @edscoble has one also. I used to have the SPB143 but traded it for something.
Now I’m looking at the SPB187. Loved the SLA023 when I had it, shame it was like 2 inches thick. This SPB187 is only 12-12.5mm thick and 42mm.

What two are you down to?

Tudor BB58 blue and the Speedmaster Pro.
And I just purchased the above.

How’s the blue holding up? The eBay bargains have dropped off recently, which is a shame.

I like it a lot. If I didn’t absolutely wreck my watches at work - I’d wear it daily.

P.S.
I can get you the blue at a reasonable discount if you want. Brand new from the AD. 2 weeks wait tops.

That's why I got the SPB143! Diashield work amazingly.

Had my eyes on the SPB187 after it released, it's the most "Seiko" watch insofar (at least to me), but a little too flashy, would be happy with a matt dials.

The blue bb58 might be perfect

I really like the blue Pelagos, still debating whether I can justify the spend though

Is only going to get more expensive.

Mad to think I got the OG Pelagos around 2K mark.

Interesting... PM/WhatsApp me.

I’ve been wearing my speedmaster pro a lot recently, with the forstner bracelet it’s pretty much perfect on site.

I’d be able to but after April though.

Official Tropic strap arrived, way more comfortable, softer, thinner and feel less rubbery than the Watch Gecko one.
