Watches - another OCD problem

[Graeme]

@TinMan the Defy Revival Shadow looks really cool, but I can see what you mean about the bracelet. Have you managed to try one on?

The Land Rover El Primero from a couple of years back has a similar aesthetic, but no date wheel. I saw one at a local dealer recently, so they're still out there.

Other than the Sky-Dweller, none of the rest should be difficult to get hold of.

The Globemaster came out in 2015 and it might be due for a refresh. There was speculation it might be one of the first ranges to be upgraded with Omega's Spirate system, which would mean a big improvement in accuracy.

@Graeme No I have not held one in person. I have been talking and working with Teddy B, purchased my marathon nav through them. They said they would work with me, the zenith shadow and the red dial defy revival look amazing. It sounds like they would let me exchange if the bracelet is a show stopper. Thanks for the tip on the globemaster. That would be awesome if refresh happens right before I am ready to purchase.

That Zenith is downright lovely.

The new GS SBGW305 is a lovely piece and quite the bargain in the GS range. I have two of those small, hand wound models (need to sell my SBGW269), and they are an absolute delight. More to the point, that bracelet is gor-geous. I actually bought it to put on my SBGW285 and I love it. Now, admittedly those are small watches, but they're very versatile, the dial is very clean (no date, no markings), and I do enjoy the morning winding ceremony... Also, there's a lot to be said for a silver dial. Not very exciting at first, but you might well fall in love with stover time.

@JDelage I like this tonal look, I love a white dial for versatility. I think a silver dial could be as versatile, also like silver in general. The bracelet is very unique digging it. Would the center links be considered beads of rice? I am also kind of intrigued by the daily habit of winding watch every morning I like daily rituals. Especially rituals of days past, you know The old ways! I could look at grand seiko all day. Every time I think I found the one, another beauty catches my eye.

@Anesthetist that’s a lovely watch. I love the range of Pilots watches that IWC offer.

The real one I thought I had snagged a few years ago for £20K, is now worth over a £100K.............Damn

[Graeme]

@Giles in the same vein, I really should have bought this Journe, which was in a display case in a watch shop in London.

@northsouthdenimguy I don’t know if you had to buy the 373 to go with the GMT or the other way around…but these two are made for each other.
