Hi all

After dabbling gently for a year or two in this hobby I've realised that rally watches are my thing,

I'm very much on the seiko type budget,
I'm love some suggestions on how to scratch this itch, I love the oris chronoris for example,
Midsize, 70s style case with bright colour seconds hand, I realise that there are a few in the seiko recraft line that hit the style I like but they are 43.5mm which is too big for me

Many Thanks

You could have a look at the Dan Henry stuff.

Looks good.

Yeah I do, I think they are seiko movements, mostly quartz but some autos too.

They are nice motorsport themed watches. I have a straton too.

Also keep an eye on their facebook pages, they often have promo codes on there so you may get a few % off the prices.
