What time is it? Watches and horology

Screams '86 Swatch.

And for this reason...perfection

The power of nostalgia is real. I’d wear the hell out of that Zenith!

Rainbow Frogman, dream watch

😂

I meant this one but sure

My eyes. What have I done.

I'm not anti rainbow but coupled with the "sapphire" case, as said previously, the zenith screams cheap Swatch.

I’m more intrigued by the sapphire case TBH

Would be interesting to see what it's like in the flesh for sure.

It's a double tourbillon 1/100th sec chronograph fer chrissakes, it's the opposite of a Swatch.

Nice looking strap. I'll happily take it off your hands if you don't want it. What's the trick?

You have to wear it ;-)

I enjoyed this takedown of the “payphone theory” about 3-minute markers on vintage chronographs:

Japan gonna Japan

Hmmm. Moving on...

I quite like that, but whats going on with the frayed edges on the strap?

It's been all over the world liek a pair of diesel jeans?

It was a one-off that they gave to a mountaineer a few years back. Titanium case and fabric strap. They’ve just brought out a LE production version in slightly different colours.

Largest retail watch collection... Or so they say...

Link feature didn't work... Blah

What's up haters

Only a grand too.

I don't get the G-Shock thing. The examples here do nothing to change my thinking.

G-Shocks are like Bowie, the macarena or Only Fools and Horses. Clearly something people enjoy that enjoy varying levels of acclaim, but will never be for me.
