The other 'photo may be more professional however this is the better of the two IMO. Stunning dial yes

I agree with Andy as well. Top notch watches, chaps.

I couldn't find it on there, no. Was announced that in late August, and it's a run of only 500.

I rather like that - be interested to hear what it's like in the flesh

That's a lovely piece. Often find titanium a bit 'light' for me but I understand that is the point for most!

TBH I'd have gone for it if it was stainless steel too. I just really like the combination of classic and clean modern.
I hope it doesn't lead to a Swiss watch obsession. I already have 7 G-Shocks!

A Speedmaster of some description is definitely on my TODO list, unfortunately a lot of house things are higher up said list.

I'll have to make do with this for now:

Lovely... and far more practical than a jumper!

I have the very same , although the catch on my box is ummm in pieces. Currently with Harrod's.

I keep forgetting to wind the bugger up .

Just ordered this through firstclasswatches, should be with me in a day or two. Up for £250, offered £175 through their "make us an offer" service, within 10mins they'd countered with £185 which I accepted thumbup

Excellent lowballing there mate thumbup I've gone for the non-atomic version on the bracelet.

I was quite happy with the price, that and the fact that they're a UK AD as opposed to being a grey such as creationwatches, though the latter has served me well in the past.

It was a close call between the models and if there was a positive display with bracelet option I may have taken it, as it is it was the display that took priority. I'm wearing my GW-3000 right now to help acclimatise to the size biggrin

I wouldn't pay much attention to which version we've both chosen as both will be hideously large and sold soon enough wink
