I demand you provide details of the following watch, for it has the potential to shuffle its way to the top of my 'to buy' list.
Not an expensive watch - it is a Police model PL11181J. The top arc shows the date and the bottom arc shows 24hr time. Both hands fly back at the end of the month/day as appropriate. RRP is about £120/130 but I picked it up at the local shopping centre watch outlet at £60. The large cream 45mm (ex Crown)dial caught my eye as I passed.Here is another pic

That square thing......you didn't,er wear that in public did you?
I'd like a couple of offences (occasions) to be taken into consideration. It is a serious and heavy chunk of steel and at 50mm without the crown and the two pushers not the most comfortable thing to wear. Should probably be classed as an offensive weapon given weight/shape.......or perhaps just offensive...lol.Birney29 said:
Maybe I am mental, but I like the square one!
On my tiny, girly wrists it would look a but silly though.
It would probably look better, as on my 9" wrists it just looks like a 'normal sized' watch. I bought the Invicta Gran Capitan on the basis that I saw a picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger wearing one and it looked 'big' on him. Despite one colleague who commented that I appeared to be wearing the town-hall clock, it is not as big as I thought it was going to be.On my tiny, girly wrists it would look a but silly though.

When some old guy hooks a cable up to it, claiming it will help him get a delorean up to 88 mph, you will indeed know it is too bigEdited by Birney29 on Wednesday 23 September 13:47

Harsh......but fair.I prefer the Panerai, which I'd guess is probably worth 2 or 3 times the rest of them put together. If that makes me sound shallow, I don't care. It's genuinely the one I like most.
