Watches

Ok, just my 2 PPs..

Tissot Sidereal ( 1971), Bulova Accutron ( 1975) , lots of rubbish, then ....Seiko Kinetic ( 1995 ), Omega Seamaster Chrono ( 2004 ). I love clockwork watches, but the Omega looses about 2 mins a month....and is difficult to read in the dark, and bl**dy heavy . The Seiko was re-batteried about 3 years ago by specialists and is almost spot-on compared with radio received time...and can live for weeks without being worn, the bracelet is a bit naff though.....

You get what you pay for ; however, I am disappointed with the Omega. The bezel is loose ( the Seikos' still feels tight and " clicky " ) and is difficult to read if you have all the "timers" going.

My son loves Panerai watches and owns several ( they don't do it for me), but I still want a Rolex....

Trade in prices ( the last time I looked were awful ). However, if you like it enjoy...

Ive wanted a Tag for as long as I can remember, Ive just started looking into prices as I want to save enough by Nov 2012 to buy myself a decent one for my 40th birthday

This caught my eye, but would obviously have to buy 2nd hand, a USA GP limited edition



or a Silverstone GP



The Audi Sport one is very nice, but very rare

Hi folks,

I took the plunge and bought the Breitling Emergency. Lovely watch made out of Titanium so no weight what so ever. I also own a Breitling Old Navitimer which i bought about 14 years ago It to is a quality watch. Also looking out for a Graham oversize diver but they still tend to be in the £4k + bracket so i may have to look for something else in the meantime. The jeweller where i bought my watch from had a £350,000 Rolex for sale incase anyone is interested.

cheers

Yes totally agree with Omega watches, they are class my dad is 74 and his time piece, an omega seamaster, is still working from his 21 st birthday present, its a shame thats the only thing that is still working on my old man.
