Good watch brands

[Kippax.]

It’s all personal choice, and it looks like you chose a beautiful timepiece.

I’m partial to GMT watches, and this one is one I quite fancy (Bell & Ross) and one I already have (Explorer II)View attachment 21267View attachment 21268…

Love a GMT. I currently have this Planet Ocean.

I have also owned the BLNR, should have never downed that watch. Loved it.

Too funny!

Didn’t have a ready photo of the Omega, but once you posted, had to grab a pic on the bedside table!

It’s a little big for my wrist width, but it’s a good looker!

Very nice, I’ve got this one. Love it. It is silver isn’t it? Looks a gold tint.

I’m actually toying with a Tag Connected for every day use. Steel strap. I know it’s gimmicky but they take me back to the eighties and my first digital watch!

Yup it's silver but the minutes and seconds hands are gold plated (not actual gold though).

Absolutely love the seamaster and that's what I plan on getting next.

Shoes and watches…bit sad, but beats wasting all my money on booze, fags and women…no matter what George Best said!

I’ve got that too! They’re my only two watches, Carrera and Seamaster. That silver one @Kippax. posted looks lovely.

True.....and admit I've learned why some people even wear a watch!!
Always thought....10k or 3 vouchers of a cornflakes box, both tell you the time,as does a phone,which everyone has!!
I've got a leather strap Gucci dress watch...but haven't worn it in over 30yrs!

Ford Transit or Aston?
4 wheels, both get you from A to B.

If it’s in good (original) nick, you should have it valued. You never know!

I have a Panerai Luminor GMT with a brown leather band. Again, another (too?) big watch for me, but it’s the brown leather band that probably deters me from wearing it more than anything!

Strange creatures, aren’t we?!

Timex all day long. Mine off my Nana still works after 47 years.

Timex…takes a licking, keeps on ticking!

Had to look for a minute, but I knew I still had them! The white face was my “pre-Explorer II” watch, while the black face was a pre-Bell & Ross version of similar looking watch!




(Sorry for small pics. Message said images were too big, so I cropped them and thumbnailed them)

TBH......that is exactly how I view cars!!!
Thinking about it, i guess it depends on your interests....you can catch the same fish on rods that cost a fraction of what mine did ;)
