Animal W003 "Surfers against sewage" from 10 years ago. A few more scratches on the weekend, but it still tells the time. I doubt anyone else has ever looked at it.

my animal w004 is faultless after 12 years. Have another animal lurking away somewhere too.

Great watches and well made for the money.

Raymond Weil W1 - 12 years old and going strong. No alarm though and I don't think they do them any more 🙁

Just treated myself to a Seiko Motor Sport Chrono Sportura for day to day use, cracking watch for the money.
But treated myself even more for "best" with a TAG Monaco Chrono 😀

patriot_matt - good heads up that.

That is a real bargain for under £50.

Sooooo close to buying a Sea Dweller Deap Sea this am.

Just a tiny bit too mahoosive for everyday use-probably will regret not buying it for ever now!!

Will try GMT Master or bog-standard submariner for comparison.

I don't really get the branding thing. The £200 Seiko is prettier than the £900 Omega IMO, it's not like either is rubbish.

Personally I like vintage and have racked up 4 & 3 swatches. I fancy a Swiss Army next or maybe that Seiko. Or a vintage Hever at a local auction.

Well, tried on a GMT Master II (Not as nice as the old model), Seamaster GMT (nice) Planet Ocean (Stunning) but then I tried on a Bremont ALT1-Z: oh my god!

Now back to square one; the Bremont has me all doubting my previous choices....

Got my Nite MW10 nice and comfortable, looks good and has date window and tritium markers on the hands and hour markers worked a treat in the pitch black last night. Battery life on the model I have is 5 years and 100m water resist. For £120 you can get a slightly more loaded model with a 10 year battery life.
I feel so bad that when I went through my 'watch' drawer I aso found I have a Seiko Kinetic MK1, has a futuristic style straight from the late 80's. Gave it a shake and it works. Thisnk its time to ebay some of them and thin out the collection.
