Haha, thats a hell of a lot of Rolex's there!

I'll stick to my second hand Citizen and Rotary Watches

Kind regards,

I've seen this watch on the rainforest site,

Black Dice 'Mixtape' Unisex Organic LED Black Stainless Steel Leather Strap Watch:

I really like it's simple, clean design but at around £85 it seems a little pricey for what it is. Has anyone seen similarly designed watches for less?

What movements are in those Kemmner divers?

Lima · 3 Oct 2011 at 19:27

I've had this watch for a few years now. Still really like, gets a lot of complements, but got a small chip on the glass now (not that noticeable but really annoys me). :mad:

My parents got me this one when I started working. They thought it would look unprofessional to turn up without a watch! It's the men's one which I prefer, the lady ones are ridiculously small.

Can't believe no one commented on the fact that your folks bought you a watch worth over a grand lol

SteveOBHave · 20 Oct 2011 at 13:43

new watch... took a while to choose it...

I wanted this one but it was £100 more and I can't justify that at the moment

Looking to purchase a Tag in the next month or so (not for me), what's the typical discount on these? Is it 20% or less, I can't remember, cheers!

What's so odd about that? Loads of parents buy their children decent watches for birthday gifts.

I am now also contemplating the Tissot Seamaster Touch purely because of the technology built in to it, having said that I think I will go for the Citizen because it would also be more suitable as a day to day watch.

Love that watch, had my eye on it for a while now. Would you recommend? Can I also ask if you know where your wife/dad bought it from? I noticed that Ernest Jones have a 0% finance offer, if I don't have to drop £2k in one go then that sounds like a pretty good option!

recently got a gold LTD watch very nice and none expensive

im not sure over £1000 lol.

anyway for those that care Chris Ward has slashed £20+ quid off a few watches on his website atm, so grab um whilst you can.

I need some help on which watch to get for Christmas. My parents have kindly said they will get me one. The budget is £800 ish pound.

I have always liked Tag Heuers notably the Bourne Link Chrono. But I also like the look of the CW C700 Grand Rapide. My Dad wants me to get a Tag but this would be the entry level(cheaper) ones as he will be going to the Tag shop near york which are last seasons stock .
This watch is to be my best watch and I would like one with a metal strap and no gold on it.

tldr, Watch £800ish Chrono, steel strap, Auto or quartz whats better and what should I get.
