Reminds me a little of the Hanhart chrono. Nice watch.

New addition today, Seamaster Diver 300 with the green dial on green rubber. Been eyeing these up for a while and decided to pick one up since it's my birthday next week. Absolutely love the watch, a great option on the rubber to dress down for daily wear without being too showy with a shiny bracelet like the Breitling. Possibly the most comfortable watch I've ever worn too.

In it's home, finally filling the empty space in my display box

Nice

I like the case by the way. I was eyeing one of these up. Just not sure if my watches will fit over the posts as the straps are set for my slim wrist.

Thank you, the case was a Christmas gift from my other half (That's her Tudor on the left). The pegs are definitely on the chunky side and that's why her watch sits unfastened, but I should imagine the majority of mens wrists would be larger than those. If you'd like any measurements from mine I can get them for you.

My wrist is about 16cm I think. Any chance of running a tape measure around a peg? I'd definitely get one of these cases if my watches fit.

Many thanks for that

Looks like my watches may just fit over that. Might wait for a deal and pick one of these up.

Not a great photo but I assembled a new watch a couple of weeks ago. It's using a fordite dial (overspray paint from ford car factory in detroit) and an NH35 movement.

Also treated myself to the tudor black bay bronze just before christmas and it is patinating nicely (having a hard life with quite a bit of time in the sea and snowboarding and stuff, getting proper abuse)

My latest and possibly last for a very long time

It's a lovely watch, one of the IWCs I really like.

Possibly last though? You said possibly... it won't be the last. For a very long time? Maybe not as long as you are hoping?

I was wearing an Apple Apple Watch Series 3 but i shattered the front screen today when i accidently hit the screen whilst playing badminton. Not even sure how i managed it and the result was a dent on the racket and a shattered front screen

It's not that big. 43mm. My planet ocean's are 43.5mm and my Rolex deep sea and Sinn U1 are bigger at 44mm. Just the angle. The iwc big pilots are a comical 46mm. Like tying a plate to your wrist lol

The Omega and Breitling (Superocean II Heritage) are both on my list
