    Tudor have some weird collaborations. This is the worst one yet.

    I think it's beautiful and can think of many people who would wear it.

    £550 on the canvas web strap or £675 on the Bader (oyster style) bracelet. If you’ve ever handled a CW you’ll know that’s great value. I’m not bothered about the military thing but I fairness their watches are approved by the MoD to carry the military insignia. Would make a great value good quality grab and go. I don’t like chronos myself but if they did something similar with the Sandhurst field watch I’d be all over it.

    Total guess, but I’d assume Tudor boutique only if it’s really a very limited release but who knows?

    The "officially approved by HMAF" leaves me a bit cold. MoD have a marketing department and sell the rights to companies to use military branding...they sell the brand to anything from Action Men to clothing. I can't speak for Sandhurst, but I don't have particularly fond memories of my time at Cranwell!

    New cosmonaute in gold is stunning irl. Amazing really - new 41 size really suits this more elegant iteration.

    New limited edition (250) for Greece:



  19. #1119
    Sadly, I think the quartz movement from the CW (which looks great, I think, esp. at the price point) is the same cheapo in the MoonSwatch, rather than the better movement used in other quartz chronos (Breitling, Precista, etc.) So that means no stepping hour hand for travellers.

    Still a handsome watch, mind.

    Limited to 300 pieces. Wanted this when the H1 was released last year but not sure I want one enough at the price plus import fees………

    I have to agree, also it’s a similar price to an original and they do come up for sale regularly

    An exclusive centre mounted 60 min monopusher chronograph movement by LJP would not be cheap.

    EDIT: I've just looked on the Doxa website and the UK price is slightly higher unfortunately than the mental conversion from USD would be. So not quite as good value as I was originally thinking, but probably worth waiting on it coming to SC.

    Yeah I find the 300T a little chunky. The 300 is better but the uptick on price is hard to swallow.

    Apart from the 18mm lugs which I'm not too keen on these could solve the issue by being smaller and £400 cheaper

    A Marmite version of a Marmite watch that I happen to really like, this one amusingly self-referential and sanely priced at CHF 1,350 -

    With the bracelet/rubber strap flare as it comes away from the case, I'm guessing it will wear more like a 20mm though. I'd be interested in seeing the weight listed too (and a comparison to the 300/300T weights).

    I'll look forward to seeing some reviews and real world comparison to the 300T.

    I actually like that too, and not to sillily priced.

    Am I correct in thinking there is not a Uk distributor for Mido watches.

    No, they do seem oddly in-limbo, with just Heathrow T5 and a couple of shops in outlet centres.

    New Seiko 5 reinterpretations of the old SNXS models.



    I quite like these, particularly the blue: https://www.seikowatches.com/uk-en/p...5sports/srpk87

    I saw the prototype of this at the British Watchmakers' Day and it's really good. They had it on a period correct type of bracelet and it looked fantastic.

    I like that, I just can't decide if the yellow-green at the centre makes it look dirty and faded. I might have preferred it if the colour faded from a pale/light green at the centre to the fluoro green at the edge.

    They also announced a 40mm Pioneer with a cosmic green dial and the new movement.

    See here.

    Great! What they should have done with the previous model. I think my only gripes would be that I would have preferred manual wind rather than auto, and at the price of the last re-issue you might be better off buying an original??

    Good to know. Being an owner of the previous 40mm one I thought it would be.

    I stupidly didn't take a photo but the things that stuck out to me were that they got rid of the two red dots on the dial and the crystal looked much nicer with more of a dome. The bracelet looked great. The whole package looked very close to the original.

    Any idea of price for the vertex? Hoping less than the 40mm version

    Given that the M100 (40mm) is £2,500, I suspect this will be in excess of that figure. If that’s the case I’d sooner look at a Timor watch reissue for a good deal less.

  45. #1145
    The new Timor modern version in DLC looks nice

    The CWC version is nice looking but still too expensive at £1800 imho

    Wow, I didn’t realise they were that much. I know the quality is meant to be excellent but that’s punchy for a field watch
