I'm liking these more & more all the time.
I may have to check the piggy bank...
they're great smile go try one on, and try it alongside a straight sea dweller as some people prefer those and they are a bit cheaper.

I didn't like the watch at first as I found it top heavy on the bracelet but on the Rubber B
It works
To me the bracelet tapers to much for this watch

there's no getting around it being a heavy watch, but it probably is less freely able to move around (and consequently to feel its weight) on rubber. Looks good.

Not sure about the standard PAM on the right wrist - if you want to wear a watch on the right wrist why not buy one that is made to wear on that wrist when they make one ?

Love this watch, but does the extended section on the right around the winder get in the way? It is comfortable?

Love that GT3

Black Bay back on the bracelet today after a Summer of various NATO's. Putting the bracelet back on (even with decent tools) was an utter PITA!

Old school today with an f300 Hz Constellation.

The bezel's looking a bit shabby now, but as it's 42 years old I can live with it. smile

Great watches. Couldn't leave mine on the bedside table as it amplified the sound of the tuning fork and kept me awake !

Cheers. It does tend to "hum" a bit on the cabinet thing. I leave it on the floor so no worries. smile

It will be put back in it's little box on Saturday, back in rotation, so no problem.

Got this on my wrist today. Bought it from Watchfinder as a day to day watch, it's a 2003 TAG Links. Nothing too high end but I think it looks smart enough.



I tend to vary things day to day with either this, an F1 or a couple of different Seiko divers (SKX007/009).

Not a wrist shot but thought I'd take a pic because I've brought two watches on a short trip...one that I wear every day and one because the strap matches my 'smart' bowtie shoes.

See if you can guess which is which.

Missus picked this up for me as a wedding gift to wear on the day, just arrived home from the wedding in Italy.

Allegedly a birth year (79) I won't research it too much as I suspect it may be a bitsa but obviously has huge emotional attachment already (she knows NOTHING about watches)smile
