Has anyone bought one of these this morning? It seems like Bamford are doing some interesting things at the moment.

Just a change from talk of values, I think they are a nice option.

I see they sold out straight away. So some people must be liking them.

Made in very small numbers apparently so not surprised it sold out quickly.

I have come close to buying a Bamford watch on a few occasions through their customizer but i've never followed through with it in the end, haven't looked at their website for a while but they do seem to be doing some interesting designs

Someone's very optimistic there.

I think Bamford make some interesting pieces but I don't ever see them being worth significant money.

Hmmm… £4k buys a lot of watch, you’d have to be barking to part with that for this. At RRP I can see a certain appeal, but not at this price point I’m afraid.

Never understood the appeal of Bamford watches.

They just look like generic cheap Chinese watch parts thrown together with silly themes and then overpriced to a huge degree.

I'd agree with that. I think at around 1-£1500 they have an appeal but at 4k it's just silly.

I suppose there only needs to be one person who sees the value in paying 4k though. Maybe they will get lucky
