A superb watch, the top of the tree really.

I wonder what it costs to insure annually? I lost a Breguet and thankfully it was insured by Chubb - zero drama to have it replaced.

Moonwatch has arrived, can't see me wearing much else in my collection for a while! Possibly time for a cull.

After the big guns above, here's today's Japanese workhorse. I'm really taken with this Turtle reissue:

New strap delivered today for my Stowa MO, after the PP and Blancpain above I bet you're all well impressed biggrin



As a side note, great service from WatchObsession. Ordered yesterday at 3pm for 2-3 day delivery, put through the letterbox 11am today. Unlike Page & Cooper who received an order from me at the same time for next day delivery and they haven't even sent me a tracking email to say it's on its way...

Thanks chaps thumbup

It's a 41mm case which is as large as it can get away with IMO (though it couldn't actually be any smaller due to the movement) and I've yet to capture the heat treated blue handset in a 'photo that does the watch any justice. Very happy with the strap, it's only a cheapo however it's the exact colour and style I wanted and the quality vs price is the right ratio.

It is about the right size. The Zenith is 42mm - which looks about right.

I fell out of my boat at high speed - it's at the bottom of the Solent somewhere.

The stowa more than holds its own. I'd wear it before the PP or the BP. Yes, I know they are calendar jobs and engineering marvels but the Stowe is a nicer watch. I want one with a 6oc seconds dial, I had one and broke it.

That's 3 in my collection.

I thought I was the only PHer sad enough to match his watch and cufflinks.
