What watch do you wear?

Wearing this for the first time today having ditched the metal bracelet.

And the first of my dirt cheap purchases turned up today. Really pleased with it. Quality is surprisingly good - can hardly fault it - although the strap is horrid but I shouldn't grumble bearing in mind the price.

Got mine from http://www.orientuhren.de/index.php, used them several times now, good prices and quick delivery. Although they are currently out of stock for this model.

Where have you found it? Always interested in places that sell Orients.

Ordered a white face on a stainless strap but I plan to put it onto a brown leather. Extra £30 for delivery and there may be customs charges, we'll wait and see.

Ordered from there on the basis that a couple of reviews included pictures of the store, plus there are a couple of video interviews. Got a quick order confirmation, lets see how it goes

Ceramic SMP.

Phone cam is kind of a joke.

Will probably flip it for something like a used Portuguese chrono eventually. 41mm is probably my limit. :p

Swap? :P



I finally have it!

Oh, and my Tudor too...



The Omega quality is fantastic, it's such a solid watch. I am very pleased with the Tudor too though, I just love the simple design to it.

I'd love to trade the Omega in for one like above though... Black bezel is my ideal!
 
Everyone knows blue bezel with blue dial is where it's at ;-)


I like the Luke here too, seems quite bright just being powered up by normal.ambient light. Nice touch is all markers are completely white in normal daylight viewing.
 
I currently have a Breitling Superocean and am thinking about getting a more classic looking watch. I like the look of the Breitling Transocean but wondered if i should look at another brand (although i adore the transocean looks)

Any thoughts on alternatives?

also has anyone used http://www.swisswatchesdirect.co.uk/ ? Their prices seem to good to be true?

EDIT:

Trustpilot reviews (723) all seem to be positive

Bracelet is definitely the way forward. Been very hot today and been walking outside a lot. Can't imagine a leather strap living up to that kind of wear daily at all without ageing/smelling etc. Running the whole watch under the tap too.

Going to stick to bracelet.
