Do you know, I'd like to like them but I can't. On paper they're ideal - chunky, quality stainless watch that isn't a Rolex. But they are so damned ugly (like most of Gerald Genta's designs IMHO)

It is interesting that everyone likes different things. I haven't seen a Genta design I don't like yet, but that's the beauty of it I guess.

Bought as a special occasion watch last summer. I don't think it's been off my wrist more than about 5 times since I got it. Very comfortable and love the splash of colour

Couldn't resist this rare bird - needs a bit of TLC but after a service, she'll be almost one of a kind...

I had this as a 50th birthday present, almost 5 years ago ..
Sorry about the lack of wrist parting smile
Another milestone birthday soon, narrowed my present to myself down to Longines Legend diver or Oris Heritage Sixty-Five

.. how can I rotate the pic? ..

Just got back from Naples this weekend, so I wore my holiday watch all last week. Robust, waterproof, keeps superb time, and no one is going to pinch it!

This today:




It had been sitting in the safe for close to a year. Thought I'd dust it off and give it some wrist time.

Looks like the Offshore Navy themes – 26470ST (bracelet is an additional £1800 or so)

It is my opinion and therefore fact that nothing octagonal should appear on wristwatch.;)

Well that ruins my Christmas present idea for you.

That being said, I got a gold Royal Oak last week and it just didn't quite feel right so returned it, not sure if thats because of colours or shape. The shape works well for me on the Offshore because it's bulky.

After a long time lusting after one of these, the guys at Page & Cooper came good with my Marathon LGP. Just arrived and onto a red strap to start with. Keeping the black strap for neutral days and the lime green one for holidays!



Thanks Josh!
