It's a watch, isn;t that what you're supposed to do with it (well, at least when you want to know the time!)
Seriously, looks pretty good.

as a few people on here know, I have many nice watches, ranging from Seikos to Rolex, and everything in-between,
When the Apple watch was released I despised them, but have recently needed a 'smart watch' as I get text/email alerts for Jobs, all day and can be up a ladder or in the middle of electrical work,
using an Apple watch, I can view the jobs and decide if I want to take them, on a twist of the wrist, a proper tool watch the Apple watch has become for me,
here it is, on its G-Shock type strap,

Love the PRS-68.
The Smiths Everest would be my ideal daily... if only it had a date function.
Thanks, but after wearing it for a few days i flipped it. I chased it for a long time and when i finally found one for sale it didnt match up with my expectations in person.
Life goes on, i got this instead :D

Couldn't resist Andy Schuhren's stash of them any more and bought one for myself

Given that I mostly own dressy watches this is a departure - but sub-40mm and date-free is definitely my thing. I've put it on a faded black perlon NATO
I've probably obliterated it's collectable value by using some polywatch on it.
Omega Speedmaster X-33 Gen 1 arrived today from Germany.

Just took this in a trade, actually very surprised by the quality of this one, and certainly very different to other watches I've had.

Cheap and cheerful new Seiko 5.

This is certainly a keeper! More than makes up for my recent disappointment trying on a Zenith.

Bought off this forum in the last few days, from sevvy. Love it!
Been after one for ages. Came with the original strap and a Z-22.

Couple of new beauties arrived this weekend, PRS-5 and CWC RN Diver Auto. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...f6d66ca7dc.jpg
Very good catches! I do really need to try a CWC again. Just wasn't in an appreciative mindset before.
CATCH OF THE DAY-
Got this yesterday, beautiful condition 1973 Omega Dynamic with original box and papers that has sat in a safe for over 40 years!
Came off quite a small wrist so just need to find a couple of original links and maybe an original leather strap to go with.
Working beautifully.

My first incoming for a while, and one I've been after for a good few months. Not that they're rare or anything, I just hadn't found one in the right condition at the right price. I like the traditional 6, 9, 12 over the 3, 6, 9 layout as it puts the date in a better position in my view, but it's all personal preference I guess.
I spent a bit of time trying to decide between black or blue dial, but in the end chose the blue as it mostly looks black anyway (it's a very dark blue) but when it catches some light then you get a lovely sunburst effect. Subtle, but lifts it over the black somehow.
Anyway, a pic!

Flipped my 2011 VC Ingeniuer Laureus for the 2015 version. Arguably a lower-quality watch but a far better fit on my wrist.
