What watch do you wear?

We're you close to buy one a little while back when I was looking for mine?

I have to say, it's a really nice watch; delicate while being 'manly' -- very classy I find...

yep! that was before I got the quotes back from my other three watches in for servicing and before I commissioned someone to do some work in my garden.

I still have a watch on my 'to buy' list and im still going for the same one.
 
Hello guys,

I'm looking to get a new watch for Christmas, I've got about £100 to spend. I broke my smart watch so in need of a new one as I feel 'naked' :(

Three things,
I'd rather it didn't pull my arm hairs out,
Must show the date, I hate not seeing the date on my current cheap one I found in a draw.
Pretty robust, I'm often under cars, I build and repair bikes for my job. It needs to withstand that kinda stuff.

What would you recommend?

How about a G-Shock? If you like the chunky, hard wearing looking watches that can take a ton of punishment, that is what I would go for. You can get quite a lot of different styles if you look around at £100.
 
Not G shock ones, they are too bulky and big.

I like designs like the LG G watch R, that kind of style. Not sure what it's called but do not want another smart watch.

I don't have the largest of wrists so can't have anything too big.

But the LG G watch R is a smart watch and fairly large with it! :confused:
 
I know it is but it's the only watch I know the name of that I like the look of. I tried on one and it was the biggest I could go, anything bigger looked odd.

I'll have a look tomorrow when on my PC. I've never bought a proper watch so don't know what brands or anything to go for. Although, them Casio edifice ones on to look nice!
 
I've decided to get a Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro 600 - 42mm, in black.

After much researching it seems an excellent watch for the money (not that it's particularly cheap, but in watch terms), and punches well above its weight.
 
I like this one - Has a classic diver vibe about it. Not a fan of the polished bracelet bit s though, even Longines have ditched those now :p

The satin matte case looks real nice though.
 
Very nice indeed Robbo!! Liking the style of that a lot. I was thinking Rolex myself BeeP when I first saw it.

What do we think to CW watches? I am considering one? I am looking at C60 TRIDENT 300 - 42MM.

I will be honest and say I don't know a huge amount about watches. I have a couple, both Seiko.
