The anti-brand snob in me just got an aneurysm.

My Apple Watch gets worn more than all my Swiss watches combined. Just quite handy, particularly the Apple Pay.

This really surprised me. I thought it would end up in a drawer or given to one of my kids.

If I didn't wear a Garmin fitness tracker on my right wrist already, I might put the AW on my right wrist and wear a proper watch on my left.

As I said on every level.

Mind you, the car could be viewed as green I suppose....

Come on in Sid the waters lovely, and green.

My most worn watch since taking ownership a coupe of weeks ago, now fitted on the Everest rubber strap.

Reissue of the Giugiaro-designed ‘Aliens Ripley’ Seiko. Certainly one that divides opinion.

Always a bit disappointed I didn't get one of those when I could have (original not reissue).

I wouldn’t say no to an original, though the reissue was hard enough to get hold of - hence the black rather than the silver version.

After a six month love affair with the Nautilus, I decided i missed the Aquanaut too much. I found the Nautilus too formal for me. I like to be a scruffy out of work, and I found the Nautilus too formal and I wasn't wearing it much. So, I sold the Nautilus, bought another Aquanaut, which i absolutely love, and will wear with anything, and at the same time, acquired an Explorer. Had one a while ago with the short handset. The updated handset and lumed numerals make a huge difference. Love it. Job for this afternoon - cut the Aquanaut strap to size.




Having a Nautilus is like someone like me dating Kate Beckinsale. Stunning to have on your arm on a night out, and you can't stop looking at her. But when you're wanting to fart in bed the next morning, I don't suppose she'd be laid back enough to go with it.

i lost you in the third sentence... are you saying the watch looks overdressed for normal occasions or are you concerned the watch might judge you for farting
