A slightly "bastardised" PRS53 for me today. HAGW all, it's evening here, so I'm off down the boozer.

The usual work watch:

Then the usual out-of-work watch:

... although this is currently on a nice thick Di-Modell Jumbo as the bracelet is a pain to get a decent fit with :roll:

**Page** · 5th October 2007, 12:41

Put this one on this morning....

TGIF.....

Have a great weekend all.

Lot's of lovely watches on display today gentleman, give yourselves a pat on the back.

I managed to wrestle of this one off the wrist of Alistair last night. Very, very impressive. I wonder how much kidneys fetch these days.

Unfortunately it was only a short tenancy but I managed to rattle off a few Q&D's in the garden this morning. It's now back on Als wrist and I've reverted to this old thing.

Have a great weekend all.

Cheers,

Gary

Thanks Gordon. I like to be colour co-ordinated with the sky, especially when it's such a beautiful sunny day here in Brissle.

Cheers,

Some great watches today gents.

I lied yesterday. Decided on the '53 today

Have a great weekend (long weekend for some) all!

**worlok** · 5th October 2007, 17:00

Still wearing the Italian. I wear others when I get home from work but this thing always finds it's way back to my wrist. I LOVE the larger diameter yet the thinness of the thing. AbFAB it is.

My poor ol' Breitling Steelfish is in the box, unworn........ :twisted:

Have a great weekend. :)

Tom, I have to totally agree with you. I love mine, too. I seem to wear it nearly every day. The only thing that I expect to give it a run will be the arrival of the PRS-50 LE sometime (hopefully) next month...

Cant but to agree with you here. The only minor flaws that I can see is that the lume on dial aint match hands. The other one is that for my taste the wire lugs could be a tad thicker. That´s it. Nothing more. It is a serious watch and thinking about it´s price an astonishing bargain.

Thank you Eddie :salute:

**Ron Jr** · 5th October 2007, 17:58

Decided it was to gloomy today so I put some sunshine on my wrist.

It was a package coming from the UK, actually. Good it managed to leave the UK before the Royal Mail dispute. :)

**raysablade** · 5th October 2007, 18:28

This great little watch.

**Timelord** · 5th October 2007, 18:37

I've been wearing my hybrid Sinn 801a / Squale 100 atmos diver that I recently bought for John Barron. According to him, it was a 100 atmos 80?s Sinn 801A that was bought with the incorrect dial. He subsequently found an Old Squale 100 atmos dial that fitted perfectly. Looks like they both use the BP FF case anyway.

It now has a set of correct hands and a rebuilt hacking ETA 2789 as well as new tube/crown case refinish, new seals etc done by Jack Alexyon (the original movement is an ETA day/date, but as the Squale Dial was only date, it was appropriate to use a different movement)

The watch came with the Isofrane-style black rubber strap that I have seen on other Squales (I have one with a Squale buckle). All picture credits to John Barron.

Really a wonderful way of portraying the detail and texture of a watch...

Thanks! :)
I took that pic at daylight with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3, the ISO forced at 100, with the cams macro setting and with a tabletop tripod. Resizing and sharpening were done with PhotoTool (a small contextual menu item on OS X).
