Anyway Oliver Spencer make very nicely cut trousers. Even better when they are on sale!

Oliver Spencer fishtail chinos are pure cotton - good but pricey:

Reminds me about an article I read recently by Simon Boas, who has cancer and was recently given just months...

Yeah, that rocks!

Definitely need a tactical mission timer for that job ;)

I can relate to the size dilemma. My sweet spot is 37-39mm and I know from experience that anything I've owned that's been larger than 41mm hasn't stayed.

I'd vote for the Zenith Defy Revival, it...

Agree that motivation and determination are needed.

I used to exercise regularly then caught COVID (twice, really badly) and have struggled to regain my previous level of fitness.

So I'm just...

Perfect Skin - Lloyd Cole and the Commotions

I used to have a Personal Trainer but I can't afford one at the moment so I'm looking for an app that will help motivate me to exercise regularly at home.

I run 2-3 times a week already and I want...

I like the new "space gold" dial.

Thanks all, it's for a filter coffee machine, I use a Sage precision brewer recommended by James Hoffman.

My grinder was a Wilfa Svart, 10 years old. Not sure if it can be repaired?

Just read...

Mine ground to a halt this morning.

Any recommendations please?

Looks like it would be difficult to tell the time, which is something I find quite important in a watch.

I got this too. It's an interesting direction for them, that's for sure. Can't say I'll be buying one but maybe these are interesting times for the British watch industry?

Mr Jones were mentioned...

Simple 556 for me today.

That looks fantastic!

I've never heard of this model before - would you mind sharing the full reference number and the dimensions please?

My girlfriend has a diamond ring that she inherited and wants to sell.

We sent it to be valued by IGR (International Gemological Reports), the valuation is for insurance not resale purposes but...

Sad to hear that GS will be phasing out their cheapest models, although maybe not surprising given that they continue to push upmarket.

The current 37mm quartz models retail for 2.1K. The new 37mm...

Achieving abstinence seems to be a challenge for many of us!

I think I am getting myself back on track.

I've traded two watches but have sold one and will be selling the other.

I bought a...

I'm looking for a watch roll for three watches.

I already have an excellent one from Kauffman (the Tegel) but they seem to be no longer in business.

Many of the designs (Wolf etc) are round...
