The thing is Stuart it was more or less the same sort of price 2 years ago as I was looking back then and the same a year ago. I was really surprised by your claim of poor quality, I just did a search on TZ-UK, over 40 pages of hits for Ollech & Wajs and yet couldn't find a single post saying they are as a brand poor quality for the money.

Not based on personal experience I must say, but I do remember reading somewhere that Chronomaster stopped stocking their sub/explorer variants because of quality issues.

I've always been quite tempted, but didn't want to wear on overt sub-alike. The Mirage is lovely though. Have made enquiries..

I'm not on a sales drive so didn't want to start a whole thread on them but I had a closer look at the Guinand, here's a few pics that do it a bit more justice (albeit twice the price of the Mirage?). I've not heard of any particular problems with O&W either and have to say they look good value.

Anyway, here're some pics:


Yes - thats perlage/Geneva stripes/whatevertheyare, gold plate and a 7750 TOP movement apparently.


The red-tipped constant seconds one has the black-galvanised dial.
