Cocks on clocks (Part the Sekonda)

She suggested that if she was getting something nice and shiny, so should I…

Still my daily wearer, other than when I have swimming lessons with the daughter and then its the trusty Omega 120m Quartz.

Today in First World Problems I have run out of space in my tatty Chinese eBay box

Here’s a box of yore. Some constants, others not so much.

We bought each other’s rings (stop it!). Mine had a significantly lower diamond count than her’s. I say again :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

We made each others wedding rings, an independent jewellery course based on the Welbeck Estate in Nottinghamshire.

Mine too, but mine was (for gorilla reasons) substantially higher on the quantity of precious metal.

Amazing that modern watchmakers are doing stuff like this.
More astonishing is that Richemont allow them to do it, it can’t make any money.

Haha me too. Time to buy another box :grin:

Any recommendations?

Not specifically. I bought something like this off eBay. Around £30 or so.

A different take on the time-only black dial.

Nice. IMO.

That is simply :heart_eyes:

Mido Oceanstar GMT in service. Preferred this one to the Tudor, not least because all the numbers make sence, 60 on the bezel, 24 hour gmt, 12 hour local time.

I may have just spaffed some money on a purple CIGA Design Gorilla X. Amazon was chucking them out for £120 instead of the north of £200 on eBay from abroad and £300+ on AliX

No actual photos as it’s a stealth purchase without the financial controllers sanction so it’ll be introduced gradually.

From the 5 mins I had it on my wrist it’s a respectable lump of thing and wild looking. Legibility is shit though but who cares, it’s fun.

Placeholder link until I can take some photos.

LOL. Cunt.

Watch boxes I like these. A few hu deed from the usual purveyors of imported Chinese tat.

I have a couple, don’t use the winders though.

I have this thing going spare.

it’s a bit hefty to post so if there’s a meat taxi service around the Bedford - Milton Keynes metropolitan axis I can drop it off and it can meander it’s way towards whoever screams loudest/ first.

I am also at / beyond max capacity but I’ll be flogging off some of my wrist tat soon. Watch this space.
