If you seriously think (like I do) that British watches are as disgusting as the British food, of course I'm not talking about what the Swiss have produced for the RAF.
Anyone?
Don't feed the troll.
I'll be along in a few hours to a thread with 50+ replies to say the same thing ...
This is the first post you’ve started out of Sales Corner/Wanted to Buy/Heroes & Villains since September 2014 and you insult the owner of the site.
Good move!

C'mon Walter, lets have some fun!!
What an odd post!
Am I not free to express my opinions?
What about John Harrison?

Bit early to be on the sherry isn't it?
Im talking about the look of them, I have a huge respect for people like Harrison, Daniels etc
I think you might have to specify a little, because there's more than one style of watch has come out of the UK in the last few hundred years. As it stands, you have said something so vague as to be pretty pointless. So who have you got in mind, or is it just a sweeping generalisation?
More amusingly, you do realise that many of the 'Swiss watches produced for the RAF' were in British cases, and some had British movements?

I assumed this thread was simply the latest excuse to give Bremont a good old-fashioned kick in the c***, and we're all for that.
Put your hands up if you think lowIQ75 has lost the plot...
That reminds me it's well past wine o'clock, i'd better get stuck into the red.
ever had a parmo?
It was Christmas. I was walking across the vast plain. The snow was like glass. It was cold. The air was lifeless. No movement, not a sound. The horizon was round. The sky black. The stars dead. The moon carried to its grave yesterday. The sun not risen. I screamed. I could not hear myself. I screamed again. I saw a body lying on the snow. It was the Christ child. Its limbs white and rigid. Its halo a yellow frozen disc. I took the child in my hands. I moved its arms up and down. I opened its lids. It had no eyes. I was hungry. I ate the halo. It tasted like old bread. I bit his head off. Old marzipan. I continued on my way.

So, you don't like the look of British cases, but can you tell the difference between a British case and a not British case?
I dont dislike all of them but most of them it is a matter of (good) taste, for instance I love the PRS29A, CWC 1970's chrono and a few more

It tasted as disgusting as it looked.
You do surprise me. No; really you do. Given the normal quality of your posts I would have thought you would have loved tripe.
Nowt wrong with the food some watches are excellent, if you don't like the UK stay away
That's a slightly less inflammatory thread title.
'Hands up if you like some British watches but don't like others'...
Mind you, the PRS29A has its faults. I have found that mine aged incredibly quickly and now looks more like it's really been issued.
Mind you, that was one of Eddie's early tritium models. I hear the Luminova is more stable.
Im very proud of me, I have opened a thread that has generated so many posts.
