What time is it? Watches and horology

If you are into horology then this chaps weekly email is worth subscribing to.
Chris Hall used to be at QP where i first met him and is now senior watch editor at MrPorter.
I don’t slave over watch websites as while interested i’m not following every launch/gossip/story but find this is a good way of finding out what’s going on with a bit of insider insight and not hitting refresh on Hoodwinky.

Tuch.

Oh dear.

Oh crap, I didn't realise the OAK collection was in London! I need to make time to see it before the 25th.

Not furiously hitting refresh on hoodpinky then....

I watched the vid on youtube but didn't realise it was in London.

Yellow strap day.

I love the auto version of this. Shame they didn’t do the same green on those. They went with more of a mossy colour but the quartz ones really pop!

Green solar Casioak today. Needs more charging but the sun’s not doing its job today.

Noice

looks good on yellow.

What strap is that?

Did you get it from Omega?

Yep

I asked this before and the answer was cheapestnatostraps.com

Thanks

I got this, this week, but sadly the sellers promise of 'just needs a new battery' turned out to be false, so its got to go back. Oh well....

Ti Helson for todays rainy day off at the V&A

Shame. Bracelet looks amazing.

Step-Grandfathers long service Garrard on today.

I’ve been polishing it up trying to save the original, heavily scarred, crystal.

He was an engineer at Vauxhall in Luton and when he got this he just wore it at work!

It’s the dressiest watch I have so want to get it ready for post-pandemic wedding season.

It needs a new strap though, anyone got a good line on straps for 15mm lugs?

Edit - 35mm watch on a broken wrist looks tiny, the wrist will hopefully become less fat and less broken over time!
