What time is it? Watches and horology

Fantastic news, congrats!

You've earned a hug!

Cheers man! Never can turn down a hug!

If this were 2mm smaller in all directions, it'd be perfect. Overhangs my wrist quite a lot due to lug length and lack of lug curvature but I really like it otherwise. Forgot how comfortable a nice leather strap is...

What size is that??? That dial is stunning (as you'd expect)

38mm but the lug to lug is 48mm I think. Which I knew as being on the higher end of what I'd usually want to wear, but the dial sucker-punched me.

Dial sucker is honestly the way to go

Congratulations Iain, excuse for a new watch if ever there was!

Congrats!

May go for that carbon CW, it make for good cycling watch, I wear a yellow small Casio for that reason when touring.

Wheyyyy! Congratulations man!

That looks really good IMHO.

congratulations matey.

Cheers all 😊

I like that! Do you think it's possible to get a hold of that when there are only 500 of them?

Knightsbridge Boutique already all out of allocation.

I think even the 3000 piece one is out at the official shop/ online boutique and everywhere else that I can see online in the UK.

I might have successfully gotten an order in for the 500 piece one at the online boutique…

I think the issue may be technically that it’s not in stock until 1 Sept.

500 piece one

Let me know if you want to trade for orange…

There have been a few places selling preorders that are now out of stock. Guess there may be more stock shipped to retailers of the orange one but I dunno. If it’s a worldwide release (and I think it is) there won’t be huge numbers in the UK. Maybe 300 orange and 50 grey.

Fair enough. I got 'sorry no grey, payment by end of play if you want orange' from boutique yesterday when I emailed.

And you managed to grab an orange one?

I did!

Ty. It’s this angle that I’m less into, but I think once the strap softens up it should look less severe. Or maybe a perlon or something. I dunno. Just hate lug overhang so much.

That definitely looks awkward. Such a shame they didn't turn down the lugs a little. Dial is still amazing though.

That's the perfect way to describe it - awkward - but I like it so much that I think I am going to let it slide.
