Clocks on cocks (Part 1)

Rolex have shut down manufacturing and I would imagine plenty of others will follow now.

So those hard to get sports models may now be harder to get possibly pushing prices up almost as much as they will collapse, like the gold price :open_mouth:

Fuck! That looks like a ÂŁ4.99 watch from the watch n battery stall in a shopping centre

Just had a message from Hermes, my bit of eBay Junghans bling may be delayed because of coronavirus, in other words they’re going to lose it, damage it or nick it. I sooooo dislike Hermes.

Maybe it is a delay but they are by far the worst delivery company and I will go as far as avoiding buying stuff if I know they will be delivering it.

This. So VERY Much this. They are the single worst shower of shites in the whole benighted world of parcels-carrying.


Accidentally bought a Hamilton, because of orange and 80 hour power reserve reasons; won’t have the RBAR stuff on the back. Be rude not to at the price offered…

My Herpes is aptly named. They are fucking awful. Most of my packages end up in the bin as I lumber down the stairs to open the door and shake my fist at their rapidly receding van.

Nice blorange there. Not really my cup of tea. Too pilot watch but I can understand you wanting to pop the want zit on that.

Have you considered buying one good watch instead of 100 shit ones?

Remind me again how many dreadful communist tchotkes you own?

Yeah, but they have have more heritage than all that utter crap you buy and are actually pretty good watches. And I also own a few good ones.

Never. Use. Hermes.

So Hamilton, Certina, Alpina, Ollech & Wajs, Zeno, Fortis, Oris, Glycine, Damasko etc are utter crap? Must say they hide it very well. Not much snob factor, agreed, but aside from not giving a flying fuck about that, I’m not afraid to actually wear them, won’t ever be mugged for them, and won’t need a second mortgage if they have to be serviced.

And I can have a couple of dozen different ones, instead of just the one or two.

Yes. And 10 times the price of Vostok. Actually Oris are Ok. The rest are just crap.

This, This, This.
Unfortunately I am the recipient and not the sender. It must be 3 or 4 years ago now they lost over ÂŁ300 worth of specialised dog food, unf****ingbelievable.

When I lived in my last house, EVERY time something failed to turn up, it would be Hermes. And EVERY time I went onto their site to try and find out what happened, there would be a “See, we tried to deliver it but you weren’t in” message, along with a photo of next-door’s garden. Every time. Hate.

I lived there 8 years, and not once did Hermes manage to work out where my house was.
But all the other companies seemed to find it ok.

Ah. I see. And this sort of xmas-cracker fodder isn’t?

Confusing old world, this watchy one…

It is confusing. You need to do some research. Or you end up buying a Sinn. :poop:

You’d prolly find it a mite less confusing if you eased-back on the red wine occasionally… :wink:

Pressures of being such a style guru, I imagine…
