The watches thread

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by R26Chris, Jan 15, 2014.

  1. Seen a few people on here who seem "in to" watches so thought I'd start a bit of a thread on it. So what have people got? New arrivals? Christmas presents? I'll kick off with one of mine. Just bought with some money left to me and absolutely love it, my first "proper" watch! pyse5ere.jpg
    I have about 10 other watches, mainly g shocks!
    Anyway, show us what you've got!
     
  2. I'll be purchasing a Omega Speed master 'Racing' shortly I think

  3. V nice! I'd love a panerai
     
  4. I'm not a massive watch buff but I do like them, I'm also looking for something 'cheap' (sub £1k) to wear everyday but have no idea what.
     
  5. I got a lovely tissot prc200 chronograph which is very comfortable and looks nice too! A bargain buy at £300 certina also make lovely watches too... again not too expensive... then there is ch ward who make nice "racing" style watches and nice one offs too again within thw 1k budget! :smile:
     
  6. I'm quite liking this atm Bulova 96A135 not bad for a few hundred quid daily.
     
  7. Ball watches are very nice
     
  8. Good taste Phil, here's my Ball Diver TMT :wink:

  13. Everybody loves a casio !
     
  14. very nice carrick
    Cant beat a ball watch especially a diver mines also a diver but with the green and black on black strap
     
  15. Winner!
     
  16. I love the tritium lume on my Ball watch. That and the titanium!
     
  17. You cant go wrong with ball chris ,over the last few years they only going up in price not hovering.

    uboat watches are also a nice watch but way to chunky for my skinny wrists sadly :smiley:
     
  18. Good to know. Quite surprised so many on here are into them to be honest, they're certainly not as well known as the more mainstream Swiss brands. Just need to test out the waterproofing on mine now :wink:
     
  19. Rude not to Mark :blush:
     
  20. Really thinking about purchasing a Breitling Navitimer World with Brown gator strap

  21. Do it!
     
  22. How much are these, I wear either my breitling titanium aerospace or my omega sea master, do like this for an every day watch though
     
  23. They're around the £700 mark on most of the web retailers Steve
     
  24. This just sounds wrong.. funny though lol
     
  25. Mines called a Ball DeepQuest :eek:

  27. My grandads just passed away so his Rolex oysterdate has passed onto my dad. Lovely watch.
     
  28. Used to have a Rolex Submariner Date 16610, Tudor Tiger Chronograph and Citizen Eco Drive Chronograph but all were stolen during a burglary a few years ago. Not replaced them since.

    then have a couple from my granddad who sadly recently passed away, one from my 18th birthday and some others

    My aim is to have an AP soon
     
  30. I really like the TW Steel watches, sadly too big for my girly wrists though lol.
     
  31. don't worry about it, my wrists are slim and I have a TW Steel F1 team. Just buy one if you want one!

  32. TW usually do 2 versions of their stuff, a massive one and a 45mm I think. I'm the same, I've got skinny wrists but found out they do smaller diameter versions
     
  33. This is my best

    I wear the Nite everyday and it's taken all the abuse I throw at it. Excellent watch for £250.
     
  34. Nite have the tritium lume don't they? Loving it on my watch!
     
  35. Yes mate. It's awesome. My mrs hates it if I wear it in bed. She says it's so bright it keeps her awake. Lol.
     
  36. I have to face mine away from me if I leave it on the bedside table. It's like the Blackpool illuminations otherwise!
     
  37. Lol. That's what she calls it.
