Dial really popping in the sun, have a good one everyone.

This really could be a one watch solution, my third Arktis on a chocolate Di Modell Chronissimo. Blue ‘gator, blue sharkskin, blue Cordura, blue rubber, or bracelet...
I thought it must have been mentioned somewhere, but I think it’s not just the new releases - it’s the whole shockingly bad rebrand.
Maybe Bremont just decided that they ‘wanted to get the badge in’.
The new design cues strike me as what an American marketing man thinks English watches should look like. The Terra Nova watches in particular strike me as ‘Olde Worlde this is what those quaint...
I know that Bremont have a mixed reception on here but, unless I’ve missed it, I was surprised that there has been no comments about their rebranding.
Launched today, along with some new models,...
This for me today, have a good weekend everyone.

Spot on mate, ridiculous really I was surprised not even a date but I just love how it looks.
You probably all know that sucker for marketing - that’s me………..:D
As requested, the second shot really demonstrates the angles of the case and the raised crystal.

Haven’t seen the film myself to be honest :-D, I just like the design of the watch - it’s like having a stealth fighter on your wrist.
Thanks for the comments all.
I had seen this particular watch advertised and thought it looked really quite different - and right up my straẞe. Limited edition of 2000, will they be available with a discount in the future?...
I ended up taking the plunge, really glad I did. Quality is a big step up from previous Oris that I have experienced (and that wasn’t bad). Managed to get a really nice dial too (in my opinion...
So, following my post on Watch Talk, I decided to treat myself. I wanted something different but not ostentatious - which I suppose is subjective. I looked at several, as the dials can be very...
Cheers for the comments, certainly some interesting feedback. It would seem if I do go for one it will be new to reduce risk of parts failing. It’s a shame as the dial really is unlike anything else...
So, I am thinking of buying an Oris Upcycle Aquis 41.5mm and am looking for thoughts & experience of the forum collective. I have been following eBay and complete sets in good condition seem to be...
Haven’t worn this watch in an age - and that’s not right.
So, this one for me today…

Hanhart Fliegerchrono 40mm back in the collection. A welcome return.

I have several that I suspect are singular to the forum, because I’m a weirdo :-)
This one though, I suspect, is the only one like it on the forum.

These are from Nick Mankey Design in California, at least a 12 week lead in time though (these were longer as it was the first time he had used the lume material). These are a limited edition of 250...

Pelagos FXD MN on one of Nick Mankey’s new dive straps, truly wild combination - both day and night. I suspect that this (and my other strap on another watch) may...
So, 18 months in and my RS3 8Y had to go. I had always wanted a 5 cylinder Audi and ordered the car on the first day it was possible to do so. Then COVID happened, and then Ukraine, but eventually I...
Wol,
You got me into these straps mate, I have this Nick Mankey on my FXD - you have to select FXD version at check out.
I also have one of the lumed diver straps en route too, these really are (in...

Longines MN on a vintage suede strap for me today, vintage looks with none of the worries.
From personal experience with my Mum dying last year, the stress and heartache often has a physical manifestation on the surviving spouse.
All I can say is please do pass my best on to Eddie for a...
