Kevin you are so deep in level 4 you have your head up unkels arse.

I really like that sub. And I am not a sub fan. If I was to get one to actually wear that one would be top of the list.

My casio....this is a tool watch doing a job.

You need to do a bit of extra work on that left bicep to be able to lift some of your heavy hitters.

My Datejust. Looking for a jubilee bracelet for it if anyone has one they want to shift.

Well here it is. I've had it a few weeks now, after ordering on Christmas day. A Sinn 556I RS.

A thing of beauty, even if I do say so myself! It really blew me away when it landed, it was exactly what I wanted. The size is perfect for my tiny wrists, and that deep black face with white indices coupled with the dash of red in the second hand. A true tool watch, easy to read and it can take a bit of rough and tumble too.

Love it. Just felt the size a little small for my 7.3 inch wrist so returned my 556a rs. How do you find the bracelet? Chunky?

I have to say A, and if you pardon my French, I fcuking love Sinn. And yours is a beauty. Well may you wear.

Love the 556 - the brushed finishing is really fantastic on them. 556a next on my hit list should I choose to downsize case diameter on the 104.

Well wear!

Lovely watch. If only it's wasn't 50mm lug to lug.

That handset improves the look of that watch so much in my opinion. I'm really not a fan of the Mercedes style hands that so many companies use.

Wearing my 1915 Borgel cased Trench watch today.

Early design to increase dust and water resistance. One piece case where the movement, dial and front screw down into the case. You can see one at the top right in this ad from the time.

Two of my favourite things. I've had a subscription to Private Eye for a long time, ever since I studied in the UK. I find that what happens there (politically, covid, you name it) tends to happen here some 4 years, 3 months, 1 week and 2 days later. More or less.

Are you also wearing period appropriate attire there Wibbs?

Wibbs · 27-01-2021 03:59PM

Well it is an old Barbour oilskin in dire need of a waxing so kinda.

My best friend owns an antique/used furniture and junk shop. He has 3 or 4 cardboard shoe boxes full of old watches he doesn't really want.

This week he sent me a padded envelope with a bunch of gold ladies watches. I like this art deco looking Benrus, 14K, winds up and still runs pretty good. Maybe just needs a little clean-up.

I had one of these for a bit and sold it on earlier this year to one of this flock.
But I now kinda miss it as it really is a legend of a piece.

Watch by Steinhart, sundial by Lynch.

"This one was made in the mid eighteenth century by Lynch of 26 Capel Street, Dublin. It is one of the few dials in Ireland with a time-scale graduated in single minutes. It also features the names of other cities from Bombay to Rio de Janeiro, indicating the moment of solar midday for them. On the right, the cities of Madrid, London, Paris, and Rotterdam can be seen adjacent to the gnomon."

This is another freebie junk box vintage watch my friend sent me. The brand is Marmon, Switzerland.

I was looking at the Steinhart site a few days ago and only saw the 42 on there. Somehow missed the 39mm version.

I think the 39 might be on the cards for me at some point this year.

It's a beauty the 39mm Titanium from Steinhart.

Steinhart actually made an attempt at making their own dive watch with the 39mm Titanium. It's just a pity they didnt make it with a better clasp (maybe an easy link or Glide lock style adjustment)

This is indeed the 39mm, but it is stainless steel. Steinhart do the 39mm in stainless steel and the 42mm in titanium - so if you want the titanium you will need to go for the bigger one.

Oh ok! I always thought you could get the Ti in 39mm also. That's a pitty I love Titanium watches. However that is still a fantastic watch, if they put in a better clasp I'd buy one in a heartbeat! I mean Seiko have some beautiful watches coming out and released for around the €1200 mark, but! They still have pins holding the links in. Very disappointed. The Steinhart bracelet is way ahead.

barney shamrock · 29-01-2021 11:27AM

Also getting a serious goo for steinhart at the moment, will have to add one to the collection this year methinks.
Any 42mm steins for sale here?
