Is there actually a proper uk supplier of these Parnis watches though?

Doesnt seem like it.

The movement is meant to be okay, it's a Chisese effort. Build quality is meant to be pretty good too.

No, all Chinese apart from the odd UK seller with a few from what I've seen.

It might be worth checking out some drop-shippers if that's the case then.

Right well, I need this.

There are some nice watches in this thread.... but I do question the taste in some of the others

Please don't hotlink. Thank you. VS.

I wear an Omega Seamaster here - Kept with the classic design.. I don't think it'll ever go out of fashion like some of the ltd edition models.

Had it nearly ten years - it gets taken off for a service every few years and the occasional clean and thats it. My arm feels strange when not wearing it!

I went for the medium sized face. Does anyone else not like large/busy watch face?

Breitlings are classics but far too busy for me!

That's nice, what is it?

It's a Stowa Flieger Chrono, about £1500-1600 though.

Iceman, stop with all the Breitlings, too many dials and functions for me to understand

I will admit that 99% of the time, even when flying I'll use my much larger slide rule but you have no idea how useful these slide rules on my watches are until you're taking an exam and not allowed any aids or you've forgotten a unit conversion....

They're nice too, cheers. I think 45mm might be a bit big for my wrists

Doubt I can say, there's loads of forums for replica watches though with links to trusted sellers.

After seeing the Parnis posted here I went looking and bought a PVD/rubber strap one (it looks like a radomir) for general wear. Alright for £30.
