What time is it? Watches and horology

Just bought one of these for everyday as wanted a chrono rather than the non-chrono I'm currently using. Now, what to do for a strap. Nato or something else??? The metal bracelet has to go. I no likey.

I don't think I've liked a single Tag Heuer but the old Heuers are wicked..

It's so funny the shit people photograph along with their watches.

A sliding rule, some kind of military insignia, a pair of leather gloves and a 31Trum bus pass :-D

Of course an old map and a fountain pen would really set it off for me.

Senor Bear - that's a busy face, might look good with a simple strap. Nato?

Agree SP - its not even a nice photo, just looks like david dickinson has turned out his pockets in a heap after a frustrating morning on Bargain Hunt.

Ok, price drop to £30.

Tempted. Like the idea of a vintage russian watch..

Gah I gave in to forum peer pressure and got bored waiting for customs to clear my new bracelet end pieces.

Not an expensive strap but at least I have it on my wrist now. I'm radically stoked to the max as the kids say now days.

Thanks for all the advice ladies and chaps

Crazy nice 'Hedge, very tasteful, well done.

^^lovely. really lovely.

very nice.
I've just bought a rubber strap for my Tag so that I can wear it again. The metal strap would jangle when cycling and was really annoying.

A legit one? I contemplated that too but £180 for a rubber strap is a joke innit?

Im not a fan of Rolex but that is lovely. Very tasteful

very nice stonehedge

A good result for peer pressure. Nice one. Don't ditch it when the bracelet bits arrive.

^ +1 for rubber.

Looks lovely on the leather strap SHedge! Very tasteful!

Tasteful indeed.

Good work Sir. It's lovely.

Thanks all.

I can't stop checking the time. Its probably the nicest thing I've ever owned.

It appears that I like my watches vintage and my bikes modern. I'll wear a watch that is older than me but refuse to ride anything that isn't made of Mg, Ti or Carbon. Go figure.

Its a fucken beaut!

Yup, its total porn.

New page, needs photos...
Have this.

Very nice. I'm keeping my eyes open for a nice early submariner. Quite tempted to go with a Tudor.

Nice Tudor. Ver' nice.
