I would have gone with turn of turtles.

Seems more appropriate .

Works for me

Or maybe it's just a stack of Seikos...?

Had my eye on one for ages now and finally bit the bullet on this 43.5mm and collected yesterday. My first mechanical watch, absolutely love it and many thanks to Dominic from HW as I can see why so many on here recommend him.

[Mezzanine]

Very nice.

Quite a first step onto the mechanical wrist watch habit!

Currently sitting in an AD with a coffee waiting to see if they'll accept my offer on something small and Swiss.

Pics to follow, hopefully.

Edit - deal done however it's dark and a snap will have to wait.

I'm such a tease.

Very nice, I was tempted by a 45.5 Chornograph version, with the orange accent. But jury is out on that since a Superocean Heritage is now pulling me in.

45 on my wrist looked too big so really pleased they did a notch down tbh and for me I specifically wanted a non chrono.
Was reading your thread and agree the brown does look good in the posted pic, interesting to know what it looks like in the metal.

It's obviously not a Timex Indiglo

[CardShark]

Been a bit busy, will get a 'photo or two up tomorrow Don't think that one of these has been in this little corner of PH before, might be wrong though.

Nope, not an Indiglo

[CardShark]

My new Tudor Heritage Black Bay 36.

I happen to think it's a bit of alright.





I could have sworn I cleaned the crystal properly. Bugger.

Very nice!

[cbmotorsport]

Yes, very nice. Simple, functional and really quite attractive as a result.

[Teebs]

That is lovely.

Why isn't everyone buying an airking?
It's hands down the best value Rolex out there.

[CardShark]

Thanks chaps

Serious question?

The Marmite dial is one thing, the fact that it has jumped up a size another. If I was to spend that kind of money on a single watch in/around that price from their range it wouldn't be an Airking.

I agree, I mean seriously that dial is ... well clumsy would be being generous.
