I've been wearing this for a week or so...

My newest G-shock, the Multiband 6 Atomic solar Riseman.

But when I got home from work today this was waiting for me which prompted a watch switch...

£20 ebay bargin 1970's mechanical Vostok in great condition for its age.

Lets hope this thread stays as a Proper "Wrist check". Maybe the watch forum moderators can use their magical powers to ensure it? wink

No, you still can't have a picture of my wrist. This is my daily watch on my piano.

Astroavia S8 on black Nato G10.

It's not about what you have bought, its about what your wearing... hence the "wrist check" in the thread title.

Maybe someone could start a "What have you bought" thread and we could keep this one as a "Wrist check" thread.

My deepest apologies. I trust I have not offended you. However, I did wear both (not at the same time) during the course of the day. Also, at the time I posted, 4 of 9 shots were not wrist ones.

This may not be a wrist shot but well worth posting. That's a beautiful watch you have there! Lucky you.

Don't be such a pedant. You might be wearing it now, but the photo doesn't have to be a wrist shot, which are nearly always crap.

Agreed opn the wrist shot comments, however, I do think it has to be the watch you are wearing today which for me is this old favourite:

yes I have the blue variant on now and I have to say that its the most comfortable watch I own, and it looks good, mine does run a little slow which is annoying though.
