Do like that Parnis.

Amazon vouchers do limit my choices some what..

The skeleton watches appealed to me because all the moving parts etc. look so cool.

I prefer the Rotary that I have TBH, it's also cheaper - Photo

It's not going to set the world alight in terms of movement or quality, but it's nice enough to satisfy my skeleton desire, I quite like it. Plus it was a gift so has some sentimental value :).

Not sure I agree with the single watch argument entirely :)D). It's all well and good having one high quality watch but there's a number of reasons why owning multiple watches is a good thing ;). There are some vestile models out there but multiple watches allow for better matching of clothes/dress wear, events and activities.

A small collection also allows you to give 'your daily' a break by rotating through the collection. My job isn't very physical, but it surprised me how badly my 4 year old Eco-Drive stood up to being worn daily.

The question of how much is too much for a watch is quite personal and depends on your own circumstances. Worryingly, each time I ask myself this question the answer is increasing each time. :eek:

Jeez.. good spot. Damn. I do have big wrists, but the Fossil one seemed a bit clunky depth wise. Is that the norm with anything mechanical showing like the open heart stuff?

It's another affordable :p... I like Seiko, have you noticed yet? ;)

Seiko 5 SNZG15 has arrived. I choose it over the SNK809 which I think is just too small for my wrists. I really like the design of this, I can't totally put my finger as to why though..

I imagined it going so well on a NATO bond and I don't think I was too wrong. Some people's idea of whacking a NATO on just about anything leaves me feeling a little sick at times. ;)

^Timefactors NATO, a bit of a fail from them though. They ignored the specified delivery address and delivered to the invoice address. I was starting to wonder if it was lost in the post! They may be able to draw you a dinosaur wearing a watch, but attention to the shipment address would be nice (Maybe next time I'll add that to the comment box!?). :rolleyes: :p

Nice NATO though!

nice watch. whats the official website for seiko watches? :confused: seiko.co.uk doesnt even list any "seiko 5" watches nor the Seiko SKX007 i already have. Is there a seiko site which lists them all out? ive gone to creationwatches but looking for the official site.

Does anyone own a Stowa watch? Specifically the Stowa Flieger?

I'm giving serious consideration to treating myself to this configuration:

I am thinking of going no logo or date and possibly getting stowa engraved on the side.

This would be great for the office and would complement my Botta Tres watch nicely.

I don't like busy watches but love these, they apparently hold there value really well.

4 month lead time though.
