Haha the missus or the watch?

The watch is 2017 limited edition Seiko Turtle SRPB11

And yes Blown2cv it seemed liked a good shot opportunity as there was lots of blue involved

Someone seems jelly, tsk tsk. I can only hope for more pictures of this nature (with better camerawork, zoom and focus I mean).

Oh give over... jealous of what? I've got a wife, I don't want another. I do so hate the tendency, particularly in the watches forum, where if anyone says anything less than totally sycophantic then the standard dismissive response is oh you're just jealous. I'm jealous of neither the watch nor of the presumed relationship with the female in the background - both are irrelevant to the point. I was merely highlighting that the framing of the photo might indicate some smugness on behalf of the poster. For fks sake, someone else got systematically taken to pieces over a number of pages for posting a rolex and porsche shot recently (where someone else was established to have taken the photo) - a response way over the top in my opinion - but for exactly the same reasons. Is this any different?

If I was trying to be smug I probably chose the wrong watch. And you can’t see her very well at all thanks to the purposely done blurring. As I mentioned just was a lot of blue going on at the time. Thought it was a nice wrist check is all

No, it's exactly the same... I mean the outrage is the same and it's as unnecessary. I for once enjoy watches and I enjoy nice cars and I also am a huge fan of beautiful ladies. And I don't see why any of those three should cause any outrage, unless there's some agenda there which wouldn't surprise me since we're in 2018.

I am sure this guy is proud of his wife/GF and you can't criticise that. I am sure the guy with the rolex was proud of his porsche too. When does something become braggy rather than just on topic... hard to tell. Maybe you just feel it sometimes. Anyway I think with your 'watches and girls' requirements you need to go and have a look on instagram mate as it will blow your mind. You can see one photo containing 10 watches, 4 supercars, 8 bottles of champagne 3 women in bikinis carrying fking louis vuitton bags, whatever you want. Sponsored content, partnerships... CEO and founder and all that ste. This post on here isn't anything like that clearly but i can't help but think that the posts that get peoples' backs up are a toe in the water on that spectrum. Anyway who the fk cares, all I said was that it was hardly an accidental photo it seems the convo just blossomed from there.

[DoubleByte]

Anyone can post whatever they like as long as they are PH enough to go along with the piss takes

there's not a moan in there you fanny

[Sam993]

And yet nobody has asked for a proper unblurred picture of the lady. How rude of you gentlemen.

[AlleyCat]

Personally, I say, let’s see a wrist check from you guys. I love cars and watches and that’s what I’m here for. My post wasn’t intended as braggy or anything like that. Was purely a wrist check, that had more than a desk or someone’s shoes as the background. Light hearted blurry fun, not trying to show off women or Louis Vuitton handbags or bottles of champagne.

We'll have to agree to disagree on that one, you didnt like a photo and wrote a pointless post moaning at the poster. Who cares if he set the shot up? It's no skin off your nose is it, all 'wrist shots' are set up, it's not like you can take a nice candid picture of your own wrist is it.

If you dont like it move on as you're just coming across as argumentative for no reason.

I wouldn't worry to much, there's always going to be someone who doesn't like something on here.
