What watch do you wear?

I'm looking at adding a daily to my small collection.

Looking at a field watch for comfort.
Seiko sport 5 vs Hamilton khaki.
Leaning towards the khaki based on reviews/quality.
Where's the best place is London to try them both on?

Around New Bond street / Mayfair if you want central. If not, F Hinds or similar in any of the Westfields dotted around. Seiko you'll find at virtually any jewellers.
 
Well, it came. Really happy with it ! Hate the bracelet w/regards to sizing (it’s a push pin bracelet, but doesn’t include barrels. Took me a moment to figure it out)

It’s all sized up and sitting on my wrist. Lovely. Went for the baby blue, in 40mm, powermatic 80
 
sorry I forgot to add a photo! (Looks a little large on my wrist agreed, but I think that’s down to my iPhone camera, as in person it’s fine !)

The lack of any real move into new releases for 18mm straps is rather annoying. 2 years on not a single new model seems to have come out from any of the natural rubber brands etc.
 
Been out today to get hearing aids fixed so put on posh watch - my 1965 Breitling -
Sorry about pic as I have to use old camera due to Google crap bags not letting me send pic by gmail because my phone isn't password protected. This picture doesn't do it justice.

This is such a crap picture I had to put up a decent one

I watched this the other day.


I follow Wristwatch revival as there's something quite theraputic watching the service of a watch. This one's with quite a rare 1958 Rolex which is quite a leap from his usual watch service / repair videos. I know he's been featured on the odd US programs / websites but this watch was a step up to say the least.
 
I've just received the Steeldive SD1970 - it's fantastic for the price, probably the most comfortable watch I own!

I'll probably keep my Invicta Pro Diver as my beater watch but this will definitely be my daily until I can try out the Seiko.
