Looks like good value, but I can't get any other images from Werners.

Anyone got one, or know anything about these watches?

Thanks

I don't own one but they're very popular and highly regarded afaik.

Not exactly expensive either and some good looking models.

Thanks both. Werners seem to be good guys.

I was particularly interested in info on the actual watch referred to in the link. It's quite a bit more expensive than the rest of the 1912 range, and am looking for photos etc.

Cheers

Answer as to why it is more expensive would seem to be that it has a mechanical movement - most of the stuff on the website is quartz

A lot of the 1912 stuff is automatic at £90 quid ish. So the extra £170 or so is what I'm trying to close down.

Thanks

I bought one of the astroavia pilot alarm chronos - fuggin brilliand if you ask me- great looks, good quality, not many pennies.

This watch, however, puts it into the territory of 'real' manufacturers- if you get my drift - and Nick, if you are reading this, this is no slur on Werners.

i suppose you need to figure out which watch would suit you best and go from there...

Also bought one of the Astroavia alarm chronos from Werner's....fantastic quality and looks more expensive than it actually is.
