I sold my 2006 Superocean years ago so have been looking for the right one to replace it ever since. Haven’t really taken this off since it arrived from Neal in the week. Perfect size for me at 44mm and the downward curving lugs and thin case makes it wear extremely comfortable on the bracelet of rubber strap. It wears very similar to my 2500 planet ocean 45mm, which I also sold, so I’m very happy.
Edited to add, on the rubber strap this feels very Sinn like

Looks the ' bees-knees' Paul & fits your wrist perfectly.

I've been looking at the original Oris Sixty Five diver, with the sixties style arabic numerals for a while now. This reference was discontinued around six months to a year ago. I was looking at getting a secondhand one, when I found this new one still in stock at an AD with 20% off the old RRP. The dial is a bit marmite but I love it and the double domed sapphire is awesome.
Great catch and one I’m looking for with the same deal hopefully soon.

Bought this back in February but only managed to get it sent over from the US last week. The crystal was so heavily crazed and stained that it was hard to figure out the condition of the dial, but have to say I’m pretty chuffed to find it in this condition. I reckon most of the loose stuff will brush off but I’m not doing that myself, and the V23 needs a service and some parts anyway so I’ll get my WM to do it. Only question is whether I clean out the hands and leave them as skeletons, or get them relumed to match the dial.
I vote for re-lumed.
I was also looking for an Oris 65 and had a WTB, but found one yesterday in a shop nearby also at a healthy discount. Another score for actual physical shops. It is the blue face model and getting very hard to find. It came on the tropic strap but I have put it onto a thick Di Modell strap which I already had and I think it is lovely.
Got my Sinn back after a long wait in customs and a replacement for my lost doxa !

Very much looking forward to the next addition to the watch box - an AnOrdain Model 1 with blue fumed dial. I'm a sucker for a nice bit of colour and texture and this one looks like a proper work of art.
Arrived last week, only been able to start wearing it today after getting a watchmaker to resize the bracelet for me
Posted in the right Incoming thread this time. Received in a trade at the weekend...
Finally got my grail watch! After a 3 year wait..

Not new to me but fresh back from a service this morning.
A MKii Cruxible Hellion landed today
First impressions are very favourable. Good size, good fit, excellent chunky crown, super legible, etc.
Now I have to decide if I keep this or the Navigator? Or both?

Well done, enjoy! I got fed up waiting & have withdrawn my interest, as was meant to be a celebration on selling my business.
Hoping a withdrawal helps boost the view I’m not a flipper & helps me get an Explorer for my wife’s 40th having been on the list for 3yrs...ideal is them locating a 39mm in a safe, as she prefers the larger model but I can’t afford the grey market.
Feels awful giving it 3yrs of planning without having to spend so much more than RRP. Can get to £7.5k but lost beyond that & after this I’m out of the brand to be honest given my sour taste.
Wife is understanding, but I feel I’ve failed.

I completely share your frustration - as I'm sure many others on this forum. I too asked to withdraw my interest twice as I felt let down and not appreciated as a client over the years, but the manager insisted I should stay on so it's paid off for me. The game sucks though - don't like it, they know it, but I'd still maintain a relationship and hope the honesty comes through.
New launch g-shock Blue Phoenix, absolutely stunning in the metal and limited to only 300 in Europe.

Birthday present to myself. Loving it - there's a lot more to play with than any other watch I own including my G-shocks.
