Tried on one of those Tudor Chronograph with a nato strap while in La Rochelle the other week and almost buckled but the gf put a stop to it..

This has been the watch of choice for the past month or so

You weren't kidding. The longest of long term tests!

Excellent.

After months of looking on here I finally made a choice, Hydroconquest Auto 39mm. Really pleased with it. As you can see I have super skinny wrists so I found it really hard to find something that didn't look ridiculous on me. The dealers have been shown the new design so if they have the old one in stock there are some great deals to be had at the moment. I found it really hard to find someone with the 39mm auto rather than the 41mm and they usually only have the 39mm with the quartz movement.

I have the same in blue and it's a great watch.

To be honest, though, I don't think 99.999% of people could tell the difference between two identical watches 2mm different in diameter smile

Sadly for anyone stuck in conversation with me, I am the 0.001%.

There you go, the Auto 39mm, assume all the shops only stock the 41mm as it's the same price.

Good choice on the Fortis. Individual and quite far from the watch mainstream; I've a Cosmonaut day/date and have never met anyone else wearing a Fortis in the 7 years I've owned it.
Same here, I wear a B42 cosmonaut chrono daily and have never seen another on a wrist.

Been ogling that thread. What a watch at the price! Sold my 1016 when they were cheap, now can't buy it back. This is a nice alternative with a good dollop of history scratchchin

First time in the watch section. Really making me want to start a collection up.

All I have at the moment is this 50mm TW3

I would really like one of those Smiths but there's too much on my current list.

And I only received a Longines which I love yesterday...
