What time is it? Watches and horology

You've very good taste. I've ordered one of these...

These are one of my favourite watches of all time.....around £6k though aren't they?!

Omega Dynamic Chronograph

I have the non-chrono version of this. Still keeps within 3-5s a day, and it was made in 1998 or so. One of the nice things about those ETA movements.

If you think you might ever want the metal strap, buy it with one, as you'll never be able to buy one separately.

They are unless you know someone.

Alternatively, I'll buy it and you can buy it from me.

If you take monthly interest fee instalments we may have a deal.

Does anyone have a spare 5k they can give me?

What a rip off.

This was that start-up swiss watch company someone posted a video to a while back?

Great idea, well-established brand price.

Let me think about it.

I have a moody iwc Portuguese 7 day power reserve with the same colours as above I use as my daily, I think they look brilliant with that colour combo - blue is very subtle

Did yOu steal it????

It's probably moody as in fake.

That reminds me. A good friend of mine is honeymooning in the Philippines in a couple of months. He owes me a favour. Wonder whether he'd be able to pick me up a piece of moody magic?

Who in their right mind honeymoons in the Philippines?

Why not? It's an amazing country. Anyway, don't you live in Dubai or somewhere equally tedious?

Divers...

I will hopefully be picking up an ETA equipped moody something or other when I'm in Malaysia over the coming weeks...

Ooh where? Longandwinding and I dived Cebu. I even wore a divers watch for its intended purpose.

What's the movement?

I wouldn't honeymoon here because it could be seen as tedious.

Anybody thinking of buying a snide or " homage " watch should be ashamed of themselves !
Oh and I have one of those IWC Portugeeezers as above coming in as a part ex next week if anyone interested , wont be cheap but less spiteful than new by some way .

IWC's shouldn't be cheap. That way they can discourage the riff-raff...

I have no shame in my £80 'homage' watch as it looks brilliant and tells me the time accurately. If someone asks me what it is, I never pretend its something it isn't and I don't need to worry about getting mugged / losing a £7000
It shouldn't bother anyone and I still wear my other 'real' watches though, which as readers of this thread have seen are not of the daily sort!!!!
