Watches

My uncle used to frequent the docks, engaging with all the lasses that traded there.
He always said he was a horologist.

I’d imagine he did it twice a day… Like when a stopped clock is right?

The missus just bought me this for my birthday. I don’t really care how good a watch it is but as a prostate cancer survivor this means and lot to me.

I did this last year and have enjoyed wearing every day!! Fun watch to own and wear … know many watch snobs that have these.. did show it in a WhatsApp watch group I’m in and got slated

So odd people threw their toys out of the pram when Omega were happy enough to put their name on the dial.

I'm so glad to hear this mate... My uncle recently just got a clean bill of health after being diagnosed with prostate cancer over a year ago. Thankfully they caught it in time and we can all now take a huge sigh of relief!

Wear it in good health! And as a watch enthusiast, here's a good tip for when you go for your next prostate exam:



I hope this makes you laugh and puts a big smile on your face mate!

Ha! As I had my prostate removed this is at least one indignity I won’t have to suffer again.

For the cricket fans amongst the horologists I like the look of the Rado Captain Cook being advertised at the England game with the skeleton movement.

Ignore them, all Omega movements are Swatch these days - as are most movements in most watches

I've just bought a Tag F1 chronograph for daily, hated the steel strap so bought a replacement rubber one. Hate that too.

Beauty mate and really special !! As long as she didn’t tell you to shove it up your prostate!

To be fair, the pedant in me says that Omega does now use some of their in-house 8500/8800 movements in the watches which (at least to them and many others) are not considered an ETA base movement.

Still owned by Swatch! I have the Seamaster PO the year before they bought them out - with the clear caseback

What about a grandfather clock, lads?

I’d like to own one at some point in my life, solely because of how they’re built…
I mean the mechanisms inside must be a horologists wet dream alone!
