What watch do you wear?

Thanks @covenantuk -- I think I'll try to haggle with local shops to see what they can do, and if they aren't unreasonable I'll buy locally, but if they are, well, discount it will be!
I don't mind the local shop making some margin, but we'll... 23% off Rrp....
 
What are peoples' opinions on this? I'm thinking of getting one as a daily beater.

What is it? Looks fun! What the diameter? Turns out I rather like the 45mm sort of size, and that one looks very nice..

Yeh exactly. I've had mixed results - got a decent discount and bought locally for one but another time went the internet route as sales guys mostly refused to even talk about a discount.
 
One of my watches is this one, an Aramar Arctic Marine, although it is hard to tell from the picture, it actually has a blue face and bezel, just dark blue, it varies quite a bit depending on the light, which is nice.

Looks smart with the leather strap. :). Any idea what movement's in it?

Dressed down the Steinhart for summer. Excuse potato quality.

It's a Miyota 9015 which can be hand wound and hacks. In the grand scheme it's broadly considered the Japanese equivalent of the ETA 2892-2

Speaking of Steinhart, I would love a Nav B-uhr 44 Bronze. Has a beautiful hand winding Unitas movement.

I had the 9015 movement in the Halios, great movement and just as accurate as my ETA. It's a Citizen movement at heart so a very good movement at that.
 
@Phate, well jealous :( I'm looking at a Hamilton jazzmaster but the kids keep wanting these shoes and clothes things.....
Probably get one in the next few months.
 
Two new'uns! Unfortunately they're not real, but the aesthetic quality of them is incredible!

CAL 1887 on the dial, but QUARTZ too. Hilarious. I'd be interested to see how that AR coating on the outside looks like after a few months.

Wedding gift from my now Wife, a Chronomat 44 Flying Fish. Always wanted a Breitling since i got my Tag 2000 some 22 years ago. It's probably a little bling for most people but I love it.

The quality is amazing, as is the weight of the thing.

Nice, I've been deciding what to pick up next. Its a toss up between the Breitling Avenger Seawolf blacksteel or Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch
