Yes, one of the new Doxa 300 T which are stocked in James Porter in the Argyll Arcade in Glasgow. They had the full selection of colours including yellow, orange, blue and silver as well as the aquamarine.
For the money I am really pleased with it. I wanted a really vibrant colour dial and considered selling my Aerospace night mission and tracking down one of the yellow limited editions. Also, I was looking to add a cushion case to my collection.
The watch wears so well at 42.5mm but a short lug to lug width of just over 45mm. The bracelet although nice is a bit of a hair puller.

My 1st Grand Seiko quartz, been itching after one of these for some time... I see what the fuss is about.

Breitling Jupitor Pilot - it will keep the Navitimer itch at bay for a while....maybe

Two new incomings for me today.
I sold my Tudor GMT and regretted it. Thanks to Christian for sorting me out and the watch I have always wanted courtesy of Enoch, my new Hulk!
It's done now, signed and sealed yesterday. My 2nd Vacheron Constantin :D
I've decided to go ahead with the Boutique Traditionnelle instead after much deliberation. The Guilloche dial is hand turned on the rose engine and also made out of 18k pink gold. It's nice to know that there's still some hand crafting involved.
Wow! There’s some absolutely stunning arrivals today.
The dial on that VC is amazing and given the hand turned comment, I think I need to do some research. It sounds fascinating. Congratulations on obtaining a truly beautiful watch.

That VC is something else!
Thanks all! I'm surprised that VC is getting some love, I thought I'm the odd one out for not choosing an AP or PP.
Do check out some videos on youtube, it's truly fascinating and incredible to see the craftsman using the rose engine. I'm also appreciating Breguet even more as their dials are also hand turned.
Landed today courtesy of the TZ charity thread. My 8 year old loves it already :)
This just arrived today...absolutely love it.

Wow. That brings back some memories. I had a Casio ana-digi like this as a teenager in the mid eighties.

Thank you! It’s an interesting one actually. The case is Aluminium but coated in Ceramic, which toughens it up, makes it scratch resistant and gives it that lovely matte black finish.
My first El Primero, what a great movement! Ten times more watch than a Speedmaster that’s for sure. I really fell in love with this “Panda” configuration over the more classic EP look.

Boldr Venture Auto received today. Replaced the stock nato which I found too thick and stiff for an existing one I had lying around.

This came in a Saturday to replace the one I sold a month or so ago. Onto a Hirsch strap, what do you think?

Thank you.
The only gutting bit was my mum told me/asked me about it and said 'would you want it' after they'd bought it and just before Xmas. Just thought I'd not like it due to the watches i already have. Course I would mum, I love that! The actual thought going into buying the watch makes it priceless to me now.
My drunken News Years morning purchase finally arrived today, and I have to say That went a LOT better than I probably deserved!
Full set, new in October, professionally resized (for a sparrow), and not a trace of wear, even on the clasp.
The blue of the dial is deeper and much more lustrous than my snap suggests.
For just over £300 I'm pretty chuffed!
