Wasn’t looking for one of these but was asked if I fancied it and well, why not?

Can’t believe these are still being produced to be honest, especially with the old movement.

Love these and sorely regret not buying one before the prices went potty. My best mate got one a few years ago and I've worn it a few times, very nice on the wrist.

I didn’t realise the prices had gone potty Without a doubt it’s being discontinued sometime soon, the only debate is whether it’s going to replaced as is with a new movement or simply terminated.

It’s a strange one with the dial and glass variations, nice for us punters but it doesn’t feel like it fits in with the rest of the range.

Not a sentence I thought I'd ever type; I really like that Rolex.

[F8Spiderman]

Should arrive this week.

My Stowa Marine Classic 36 hand wind is still being built - It was originally scheduled to finish production by end of May and ship but had an email this week saying their dial supplier has delayed delivery so the watch isn't assembled yet and that they don't have an ETA. SAD!

Hamilton Khaki for now

[Pflanzgarten]

Utterly stunning in my humble opinion, very under the radar in the Rolex world but really has that something special.

Lovely thing

The Milgauss is the only Rolex I'd pick to wear these days.

I don't normally get excited by a Rolex, more of an Omega guy, but that really is lovely 😊

That's nice. Most of my cheap boxes have quite narrow compartments and the larger watches can touch each other. That looks much better. Would you care to share your source.

Ebay Germany , they are really well made and excellent quality , price varies due to exchange rate so worth watching for a while to get an idea but £165 all in is pretty good

I'll be listing my Wolf Windsor one once it arrives

The Milgauss is the only Rolex I have any interest in.

Being a sciency person it seems like a good fit.

Prices are just stupid though.

I really like that.

I know technically I posted this a page ago, but it turned out that when Jura said 6 weeks they meant 10 months, but weren't willing to say so until they had my money (which they're keeping for another two weeks). Never shopping there again.

Now ordered from Berry's, should arrive on Saturday.

[OMITN]

That’s rather crap customer service!

I’ll be really interested to see what you make if it when it arrives - I love the colour but the lugs look very long to me in the photos, so would be great to see what it looks like.

Hope it arrives soon..!

[Sporky]

I had a Nordgreen from them before - the chrono second hand wouldn't go back to 12. They've had that since last Wednesday but haven't even acknowledged the return yet. Really unimpressed with Jura/Sellors.

[Mezzanine]

I purchased my first decent watch from Jura.

I have made many more purchases since then, none of which were from Jura.

Make of that what you will.

Arrived today. First impression was that it was tiny, but actually I think "delicate" is better - I'm just used to a Bremont Solo which is a lot bigger, and a Promaster Tough which is a lot chunkier. The blue is glorious, the orange second hand fluoresces in sunlight, and while the lugs are indeed quite long it sits very nicely on my wrist (I don't have particularly big wrists). Only downside is that the strap doesn't really match up to the rest of the watch - it's thin nylon in a light grey, and it doesn't really set things off. I've got a mid/dark grey suede on the way which I think will work really nicely. Photo in the wrist check thread.
