Does anyone own one of these...they have spiked my interest. The movement seems good versus price? Info/thoughts - thanks

Don't really know alot about the brand but it seems like a bog standard quartz movement that costs about 20 quid.

Not a bad design though.

I'd call that pretty expensive for what it is. A Dan Henry 1970 diver comes in at less money and an automatic Seiko movement.
A Dan Henry Chronograph using Miyota quartz movement is only $230 up.

I've got the one below, for me its a nice reasonably cheap watch that I can wear during my (non desk) work

The only thing I changed was the strap as I have fairly large wrists so the standard strap didn't feel comfortable. In fairness to Elliot Brown they did send me an alternative strap FOC but that too felt uncomfortable.

In the end I bought a Desert Para strap from Stevostraps who change the brown leather components for black to match the watch.

I own a Canford and have done for the past few years. Although it might be perceived as being expensive for the movement, I feel the actual design and case finish is very nice.
