My Cocktail Time (10+ years old with the 6R15 movement) has never been a great timekeeper. Has never been serviced either.

My Alipinist (also the original with the 6R15 movement) has kept terrible time since I’ve had it (only 6-7 years).

There’s a decent watchmaker near me so I’m going to take both of them to see if they can regulate them to be more accurate.

(Trouble is I’m spoiled with two Spring Drives….)

This has been sitting unloved and unworn for a couple of years and I’m not really sure why. Feels tiny compared to the Garmin Epix I generally wear or even the Daytona which is my goto non-sport watch.

Such a nice looking watch, tempted to put on my JLC today now.

I really have a soft spot for Glashutte. I’ve been looking for a Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date for a while

I love the senator seventies but couldn't justify the price. May look at a used one later down the line. Eneded up buy a Santos to scratch the squarish itch.

I'm tempted by this model too.... but I already have some very nice watches that just live in the safe which makes me hesitate before buying another.

Similar position to me, I’d really like to see one in the metal to make a proper judgement call however none available local to me.

Probably a good thing…

No worries with accuracy with this one. Still need to try it on a strap.

At a Tudor AD event this evening in a very nice setting around Bray, Berkshire.

Haven't got a Tudor, so kept the GO on. Was a fun and interesting evening. Tempted with the new Black Bay 58 GMT...

I don't think it's right to wear a gold watch if you don't have the rich luxuriant pelt to go with it.

Gold plated Casio for the win. Is such a horror even made?
