The Daniel Wellington Watch
The “preppy” trend is bigger than ever before. And while there are many big players in the fashion industry that caters to preppy needs, such as Ralph Lauren, Gant and Brooks Brothers, we felt that there was an empty space in the watch market. There was something missing.
We believe that Daniel Wellington fills that gap. Our vision is that when someone thinks of a preppy dressed person, he or she is wearing a Daniel Wellington watch.

Any recommendation on ultra slim watches? I am looking for something under £ 200. What would be a good place to start looking?

Good article on Helium Release Valves, smoke and mirrors:

Mos def an interesting read. But the last part did make me chuckle:

I am not saying brands shouldn’t put them on their dive watches, but let’s be realistic about their function, their use, and why they are or are not being included in the first place.

damn

niiice. I like the domed crystal.

Really?

The Tudors nice 'n all but it's really nothing that special. Maybe I'm missing something but to me it just looks like a nice steel diver that has some sharper finished edges compared to the thousands of other stainless steel divers you see around.

The main appeal imo is that it's sort of Rolex quality at a relatively affordable price. Other than that I'm not sure I see a great deal of difference from that Steinhart you just sold. You sure it's not just a grass is greener thing.

Just my 2p obviously.

I'm sure many aficionados would question "Rolex quality" as a lot of them believe the brand to be resting on their laurels development wise if not, outright gone downhill. In addition to the matt look, the lean serrations on the bezel are nice.

niiice. I like the domed crystal.

and the best thing is that it's under 40mm diameter.

I love internal bezels, not a fan of typical divers/ large external bezels.

MG, got other examples??

Limited run never to be made again forum designed watch...

... Never to be made again :-(

And my size

External bezel, but is it big enough? 47mm, 20mm tall.

And a cheap chrono, which isn't too awful;

As the man said, I have way too much time on my hands.
