Re: The Watches Thread
I thought someone would have done this meme already and I was right:


Re: The Watches Thread
I'm liking the new colourful Sinn 556, yes they may be jumping on the latest trend for watch faces in bright colours but who cares.


Re: The Watches Thread
That orange is corking’
Although whenever I think about strong colour dials, I think of the awesome enamel faces on Anordain watches….

Are those moonwatches still made of unobtanium? I quite fancy one
You settle up, I'll go get the Jag.

Just found an Omega Seamaster in my dad's things. Will have to get that valued as it's too small for me.

Re: The Watches Thread
i saw a video earlier where a guy put the watch back into its box (but didn't push it right down in), and the cardboard lid scratched the crap out of the "glass".tim wrote: Sun Apr 24, 2022 10:49 am Are those moonwatches still made of unobtanium? I quite fancy one
By the sound of it, they're too delicate to use.

None of the reviews I've seen/read make it sound like it's actually worth anywhere near £200tim wrote: Sun Apr 24, 2022 10:49 am Are those moonwatches still made of unobtanium? I quite fancy one
I know it's not the same thing, but you can probably get a much better, metal + sapphire crystal job off AliExpress from some Chinese brand for about £50 (if all you want is the look and feel of a Speedy)

There are no plans for the collection to be sold online currently, just Edinburgh and the 2 central London Stores - Oxford St and Covent Garden and these stores are getting a restock each week.
Keep an eye on the website/social media, and it's not a limited collection so more stock is coming

Re: The Watches Thread
I've heard that those Swatch/Omegas are cheaply made, but that's awful
I LOL at anyone who paid a crazy amount for one on the used market...
It's just hype (yet again)

Re: The Watches Thread
I get the attraction. A nice looking Omega for a few hundred quid. It's just a shame they didn't spend another £50 and upgrade the glass to something that can actually cope with normal light use.
