The (Less intimidating) Watch Thread

@Giles I agree, it is tightrope act they are walking in my opinion, they could easily start cheapening / diminishing their own brands if not careful with these kind of releases.

I hope this is not the thin end of the wedge.

[Mr Linz]

@Graeme Definitely better to go with the original! It's a lovely watch but it doesn't speak to me that much. Maybe a vintage one...

[IH-GARY]

I think I will be giving the queue for Swatch Blancpain a miss!

[Mr Linz]

@IH-GARY Wow! Forget that noise...

[louisbosco]

I disliked the omega Swatch a lot because it was a quartz movement. but now that this is an automatic movement (albeit, nothing to scream about), I don't know how I feel about it. kinda like it, kinda don't

Seiko prospex scuba sbcm029. 8f35 Movement. I like it

[Anesthetist]

@Eisenherz those have gotten pretty collectible and for a good reason. You wear it well!

[Cutlasshound]

Seiko mod that recently picked up. I really like it. Very well finished.

[Giles]

Love that

[ddtrash]

@Cutlasshound Seiko, Nautilus with a Aquanaut dial. It works!

Now that I’m not in a city that’s sells them I kinda want one.

I may have posted this before, but can't be bothered to look the treat through.

Been wearing this Seiko Mod, that I bought a few years back, the last few Days.

Fall means time to put the ol leather nato on there. Got some 16oz SBG and 18oz vintage in there too. This is essentially my daily uniform.

Islander x The Urban Gentry "Rangemaster Mechanical" Field Watch.

A bit small in my wrist, but I like it.

[IrishHeart]

I came across the brand Studio Underground today. The watches look interesting and have had good reviews.

I don’t have the technical ability to upload pictures but here’s a link for anyone interested.

Sort of click here....

And it does it for you.....

[IrishHeart]

@Giles when I have tried to upload pictures from either my iPhone or iPad using that function, I just get a load of gobbledygook in the box.

Probably a conversation for another thread.

[Giles]

Your image is probably too large and it pisses the fuck out of me that the fucking software we use can't tell you that in understandable English.....Sorry....

[IrishHeart]

@Giles no need to apologise but thanks for the explanation
