What Brand?

[Suinimtao]

Just searching for another watch and to be honest dreaming about some before I stumbled across this brand which seem to be very well priced for what you seem to get?

Has anyone got one or can offer any opinions on quality etc some look a little like some Cartier .......?

Cheers

I don't understand the question ?

You want something that looks like a Cartier ?

Without wandering into the terrorist strewn world of fake watches, your best option is to plough through Rotarys website. They gave up designing their own watches a long time ago, you're bound to find something you like.

Hi
No that's the point I don't want to buy something that looks like a more expensive brand. I'd rather buy the real thing.
I was looking for a cheaper watch Upto say £500 to feed the habbit for now but may just save my pennies and go for the PAM/IWC that I want......

http://www.christopherward.co.uk/ Might have something you're after then.

Everyone on here raves about them, there are normally some discount codes floating around if you sign up for their newsletter IIRC.

Seagulls are Chinese, but well put together. Not a bad word said against them generally.

There are some great suggestions above but frankly if you're looking for something as a kind of substitute for something you really want, it won't work... you'll get rid of it, taking a financial hit of some sort and eventually get the real thing at a higher price (they're always raising prices). Best off saving more for what you really want.

I've got the Christopher Ward C40 Speedhawk - which has an ETA Valjoux 7750 movement, and for the price (£500 odd) it's a great piece.

In fact, since I got it - I've rarely worn anything else.

Need to get a strap for it though, as the bracelet keep pinching me due to the design.

Yeah I think you are right to be honest, I'm just very impatient! Thank you for all the suggestions.

Seiko, Sinn, Precista & Glycine all offer good value, high quality watches.
