What watch do you wear?

[hughtrimble]

Hmm, I don't use a watch - if I need to know the time I just check my phone

Watches aren't just for looking at the time Asteldian...I wear a watch too, but usually use my phone for the time.

Now that I like - doesn't look like a pressure cooker on your wrist.

Nearly pulled the trigger on a Cocktail Time a few months ago. The star burst dial is magical.

Thankfully I have the build for it

And here I am with just one measly watch

And one we all know that you desperately want to swap

A quick comparison between the Getat and Maranez



is the Getat buckle is even bigger - OMG



Not quite as pressure cooker like thickness



and nice display caseback

 

[mrk]

I honestly could not swap it for anything as I have lost the desire to want to have another watch since this one

Maybe a MkII? If they ever do one and it improves on the previous!

That reminds me seeing your strap, I need to sell the Perlon strap, it's fit for a 20mm lug width not 22 so looks odd on mine, Still hunting for a nice Perlon

Always room for expansion, I have 12 slots to fill after all...

*cough* sub *cough*

Only joking mate the Pegalos is a lovely watch and I may well get one myself at some point

I had decided to sell off some / most my watches as most don't get worn and just stick with the regulars

That resulted in me buying three new ones :s

Damn you shiney things ........

372 back, all fixed and nicely polished

 

[{SAS}TB]

Not seen many Perlon over 20mm mate - Eulit are supposed to be a great strap?

Nice to hear Rotty - give us some pics

 

[mrk]

The Eulit is the one I have and in 20mm

I guess then a Perlon strap won't feature on my rotation due to lack of >20mm choice

 

[{SAS}TB]

Aha !

I was looking for some 24s but nada so went for some 24mm nato from crown and buckle

I sold my daytona a few weeks back, after years of lusting after one, its size and polished centre links put me off.

I was in a quandry as to what to replace it with, in the end i decided on two watches, a Panerai 312 which is on its way, and the newest version of IWCs Flieger Chrono.

The 3777 has the triple date window hated by many (although i grew to like it when i owned a top gun previously) and probably the nicest bracelet on any watch i have owned so far, albeit fiddly to resize. The micro adjustment is a great addition.

Its a substantial watch but not oversized in my opinion, and its feels remarkably well put together. More my style than the daytona anyway

 

[mrk]

That's a nice watch but do you not find the end link not matching the finish of the lug face off putting? At least in those pics it looks like the bracelet is off another watch!

 

[Cyrus]

well the lugs have a circular finish and the bracelet is a straight one, so they wont match.

On the wrist it doesn't jar as much as the pictures might show!

 

[randomshenans]

Ah man that is gorgeous.

My first thought was "That is a really horrible blue", and then I scrolled down..
