My current black stealth watch,

I'LL get me coat.

Quite like that is it still available?

Should be it was only released at the begining of last month.

I got mine in the picture from here:-

Great service, would recommend,but seems that are out of stock at the moment, as not displayed on the site.

However these guys are showing 5 in stock, http://www.sporttek.co.uk/PRW-1300Y-1VER.html?osCs...

not used them myself yet, but look a good company.

Cheers mate, just got one, managed to find somewhere that did them for £135 delivered

That Red 5 looks better in your picture than on their website!

Always liked Black Rado's with the almost unscratchable ceramic coating ... even if you're left handed and wear it on your left, and with the face down...

Nice Seiko Discusburger ... was it from Seiyajpn ? If not, where can I buy one somewhat more cost-effectively than he advertises them for !!?? (none have materialised on fleabay etc)

Hamilton do a few black PVD watches at reasonable rates.

There's one which is similar in colouring to the B&R posted earlier (Hamilton Khaki Navy BeLOWZERO 1000m) and one with white numbering like the Sinn's (Hamilton Khaki Navy BeLOWZERO Auto Chrono).

Still getting used to the brand but having seen these in the flesh, they look good quality.

How about this.
Panerai Radiomir Black Seal Ceramic

Was also a limited edition and are quite rare. Expensive too.

Must. Have. A. Panerai.

The next person to post a Panerai is getting a visit from my Ninja Death Squad, ok?

Meanwhile for those of us on a more realistic budget

Here's mine:

The BR01 Phantom does have lume, hard to read in the day, but shines pretty well at night!

It was from seiya, so was quite expensive (£560 in total with taxes), but I got it when he first had them for sale at $834 but I sent payment in Yen as it worked out a bit cheaper due to exchange rates, now there much more expensive, before that Tokyo Flash had some for a bit less but I missed out on those and I haven't seen another for sale anywhere, I think they were produced in very limited numbers.

Did we do this one yet?

When I first clicked the link, I was blown away, but the more I look at the it the more I'm unsure about it - never been a fan of the U1 hand design, so maybe that's it. Still damn cool though.

Thanks for the reply and links. One link mentions that it was apparently 'limited edition', although I cannot find that stated anywhere else, so it might be the private seller was fibbing ..

Whilst I'm reaching for my credit card to buy a Seiko Discus after this post, I find it odd that this style of watch has gained so much attention in 2007/8 because 'jump hour' mechanisms with rotating discs were all the rage in the late 1960's.

So, going off topic a bit, here's a pic of a couple that I own

Your Jump hours are nice, the Discus I have is not a limited edition but most of the other variants were limited to 100 each, even so I don't think that they sold quickly.
It's got the really great 6R15 movement in it and feels really great, I'd like it better though if the discs were black with lume filled numerals though, it's useless at night.
