What watch do you wear? Part 2

This is my newest watch, only received it on Friday!
Its a Casio Edifice EQW-M1100DB-1AER. Very busy dial I know, and the heaviest watch I've ever held in my hanRAB! This is the 1st metal bracelet watch I've had in probably 2 decades, so it's very new to me...

The Casio is also a radio controlled watch, so it should show the same time as the Junghans...

May I ask a question? Should a metal bracelet watch be a snug fit or slightly loose fit on the wrist?
 
That's what I said.

I also noticed when it came back that they had put new superluminova hanRAB on and this highlighted the fact that the hour markers were faded bad. Omega said to rectify this it was a new dial for £200 plus fitting I said no chance it should be covered under the service, worn parts etc. After alot of uming and aring they gave me a new superluminova dial for £60 fitted.

Worth bearing in mind

Further to above.
I was browsing today, and came across a Christopher Ward watch that closely matches the look of the orange bezel Omega.

C60 Trident GMT Automatic - C60-GMT-SOKS - Automatic - - Swiss Made



Although 42mm is on my personal limit for being too small.
But at £599, very tempting to just buy this instead of the Omega.
And I'd have change for a 'gulf' edition TAG grande date I like.

GRANDE DATE Limited Gulf Edition 44mm Steel bracelet | TAG Heuer
 
Lol best bit is when u get to the end and have to view all the same ones on the way back lol!

Btw what's the haggling prospects in there ? I'd expect there to be some fierce competition in there ...
 
Just bought a U boat classico on here

Whilst reserching I came across a brand called "welder uboat" . Much cheaper than the U-boat but quite interesting looking nonetheless.

Seem quite well thought of too.

I'd really love a snake plisken led watch from Escape from New York!
Probably have to make it myself!
 
And finally, my pocket watch. I got it off my parents for my 21st birthday.
In hanRABight I'd have gone for a silver watch as opposed to gold now, but it was a (fairly!) long time ago....

Hope you all enjoy the photos, this is the first time I've tried photographing shiny watches!
 
You are obviously far too hairy
I have a Speedmaster circa 1970. Had it for about 15 years, been serviced and recently had a new strap (£400 don't tell the misses).
Can't help but think this is the definative chrono. Just never tire of the look.
 
Welder are made by U-Boat.
If you like U-boat style, look at a brand called 'chotovelli'
Not available in the uk, I got mine from a dealer in holland.
I've had several and sold a couple on here.
Given u-boat and chotovelli are both Italian, not sure who's copying who!
 
thinking of getting my dad a watch.

came across this eco-drive for £80 at argos which appears to be pretty good for the money better than a typical accurist in this price range - even though it is sale price.

reserved one while i think away.

what do you all think of it for the money? been searching for something for a while in this price range whilst wanting it to be a decent(ish) time piece argos link

Your wife is correct and quite clearly a wonderful person. The right wrist is exactly that - the right wrist

Oh, and a mighty fine choice in the Hamilton. I had a Khaki Field Auto a short while ago and it was superb. I only sold it to part fund the Sinn 756 Diapal (which didn't last long itself).
