Nice n sunny today!

I cant stop looking at these on C24....

Having had a bit of a session on there of late I really must resist the temptation to buy another. At least for a few months at least

I haven't worn this in a while. Had forgotten what a lovely thing it is. The engraved and filled characters in the white ceramic bezel are a particular joy.

It has the feeling of a vintage instrument, even slightly medical in nature.

Speedy’s really are lovely things
Which one is that, they have become quite expensive compared to a few years ago. Tried the sapphire sandwich on during the obligatory airport sortie. Really lovely things.

A stunning watch. I need to save my pennies a little harder.

Dug this one out today (hence wrong date!). Never fails to impress me. Such a comfortable thing to wear. Lovely weight as well.

That's the old version of the sapphire sandwich with the 1863 movement and the big suitcase box. The co-axial ones are nice, but I've no love for the new style bracelet

Quick question Mr Flashman please.
I have a Submariner 114060, and would like an AirKing as yours.
Is the basic case the same size as the Sub (obviously the bezel is different), and does it wear the same?
Asking as I haven't managed to try one yet.
