What time is it? Watches and horology

Yeah, brand new it's a bit pricey... maybe save up and see if one comes up on eBay in the meantime? I was more patient than usual with my Searambler and got a great deal, especially that it's a limited edition (I think there's one or two on Chrono24 and they're both over £4k which is a bit crazy). In the long run, I think it's worth it to wait for the right one if you think you'll keep it. But yeah, definitely go and have a look at them in the flesh - I think you'll be surprised how different they are.

Kind of wishing I hadn't left this watch on my desk with a magnetic charging cable.

My gf chucked some hard drives into a drawer with my magnetic chargers 😭

man I really want a smiths Everest, such a great daily wear

if you are interested in a smiths everest expedition I have one brand new I've decided to let go...

@DanM
I'd be interested if you are looking to move it on. APC obviously 1st dibs.

just interested in the regular Everest, cheers though!

I enjoyed the skinny bezels, too many watches nowadays with a thick bezels.

Actual diving wtf

Bizarrely I quite like that.

So do I. But thought I'd chuck out a big bezel

Thick bezel you say?

Awesome .
Grail for me.

I love it.
Can't imagine there was many made.

Edit: 1970, more than I thought.

Is a case fo oversize mitts...

I had a saved search for these Ref. 5M63-0A50 for ages, but they've become seemingly much more sought after of late, so I had put it to the back of my mind...Until I started looking at field watches again.
Luckily I found one in excellent condition (albeit without the orignal bracelet) with a listing ending at an awkward time so snapped it up.

Even better in sunlight. Preferred it on the NATO though personally.

:) Thanks pal.

My wrist was between buckle holes on both the NATOs that I had spare so either too tight or annoyingly loose. I think a green one would look good though

This is lovely, chrono second?

The button at 2 is for battery check, IIRC.
You push that and the seconds hand pings round to show how much charge is in the capacitor, then returns to where it should be.
