An Oris Aquis small second date, is on it way to me. But please don't tell the missus, as she will kill me.



To add to the other 3 Oris, 2 Omega's and 1 Swatch.

Hopefully - eventually - my Squale 20 Atmos, back from Gnomon with a repaired crown and the domed sapphire from the 'Mint' model.

Also have an G-Shock ICERC GW-5600 coming for my wife (an impulse buy; I just got her a G-Lide 5600 in white to replace a demolished Baby G) and an original Orange Monster (SKX779) inbound for me. Love my Black Monster (every day wear, while the Squale is out of action) and figured I should get an OM while still readily available.
ICERC arrived, and it's a lovely thing. I may be pinching it...

Just picked this up today, was a choice between a Sub or GMT II and the GMT won.

The Orange Monster has also arrived; very quick service from Skywatchesvia FedEx.
Creation had none left with the bracelet, and I wanted that as a spare; will be swapping the OM on and off the bracelet I've been wearing on the Black Monster. Let's hear it for drilled lugs!

My first Speedmaster, and I didn't think it would be this version but a deal came along that was too good to miss.

A step out of the ordinary for me but my first Citizen will be arriving tomorrow morning. Decided to get myself a knock-about watch so i have something to wear at the hospital Thursday when i go in for some surgery. One of my trade customers had some old stock to shift so I've bagged a Citizen Royal Marines Commando GMT on a kevlar strap. Even blagged the Royal Marines display stand, as used at the Bournemouth air festival last year. Cheesey i know, but Im ex-RM so i dont care. lol

Pics tomorrow.

Just received this from Creation - a splash of colour for the summer, if it ever gets here.

I went out to buy a new inner tube for my bike yesterday and ended up buying this!

Fossil Townsman, unfortunately my wife has now hid it and it's my birthday present which I will get in two weeks!

I've recently started growing more of an appreciation for watches and wallets, maybe this is a slippery slope!

I wonder how that looks on a hairy wrist, being transparent.
Forgot to post this, on a non-hairy fairy soft wrist..
The wife says it sounds like a bomb, due to the automatic movement.
Its an engineers favorite naturally as you can see "inner workings"
