Nice to see your JLC again Rotty. If I had the cash it would either be JLC or a Zenith El Primero for me. Better keep saving eh?

the fact that you are asking that tells me 1 of 2 things is correct:

1 - you are one of those people who only do cardio, too scared to venture near anything that resembles resistance
2 - you are a.... well, we know that one is correct anyway, so both must be right!

I wouldn't wear a watch in the gym full stop, don't see why you would need one.

Seen a few in H Samuel, Earnest Jones and Goldsmiths. Was about to do a spec me topic as i didn't want to clutter up this one.

But what the hey its Christmas.....

Looking to buy a watch to replace a *cough* Krug Bauman *cough* which has been sitting not working and with a bent strap pin for several months now.
Budget is around £200. Would like it to be a bracelet style rather than leather strap, analogue rather than digital and definitely not gold plated as I'm not Mr T

Got this for Christmas thanks to my awesome wife and work.

What is the manufacturer that does the original 'inside out' watch (costs a fair bit)?

I don't... it begins with P (I think) and costs thousands if not tens of thousands
