It wasn't the current Freelancer which Ian King has - which is the nicest looking RW watch I've ever seen. It was a special edition thing for their sponsorship of the Brits a few years ago. Will have a look and see if I can find a pic somewhere.Quote:

TW Steel F1 Pilot
Nice big numbers so when I'm old and my sight is failing me I'll still be able to read it :laugh:
I'm looking to buy a tw steel going to look Thursday at them. 45MM is my limit in size though. Oversized watches are in at the moment so your very trendy

Ah, nice looking thing but yes, does look a tad chunky!Quote:

Beautiful! I am normally a chrono man, but I really like the simplicity of this.
That’s the main feature that sold me the watch; plain and simplicity.
Love the simplicity of that Stan, very nice. :thumbs up::thumbs up:

I hope to have my new watch early next week, will post a picture as soon as i get it :Whistle:
Looking forward to find out what you are getting, Alan

...Wow! Very nice!
Yes, very nice Alan. Really like them with the leather strap.
Im still hungry for a Navitimer 01. Was looking at then again when I was in Vegas the other month and it was working out at over £2k cheaper than the UK price. Had to restrain from getting my card out and using some interst free time on it.
Very nice - mate of mine has one and loves it.
That Christopher Ward watch is also really nice, I've not seen their new stuff. It reminds me a lot of some of the Sinn stuff (if you've not seen them, be careful - I've been drooling over them for a looong time).
I'm not keen on the position of the calendar on them or i would have had that instead, i much prefer it at 3 o'clock (ooeerrrr)Quote:

Ian you need to watch that - no pun intended. You are only allowed a very small amount of value of goods bought out of the EU, brought into the UK - like £200 or something. If customs catch you bringing in a £3k watch from out of the EU (might even apply to Europe) they will whack you with 6% duty then another 20% VAT!Quote:

Attachment 4022Attachment 4023 gutted, my watch got wet and leaked, the face was wet on the inside and I took it to get fixed, it needs a new movement and with my famous luck, its obsolete now.
So I have a collectors watch that looks great and is at correct time twice a day. :(
That gutting when things like that happen !!
:frown: sorry to hear that John. I just had my sent away to get battery etc changed and cost me a little bit of dosh and was considering sending my old mans Omega to get serviced and going again and maybe even trade it in for a new watch for myself but they said it would probably cost a few £100s to get done and now I'm not sure what to do coz I'm worried in case they come back and tell me bad news like yours :thud:
Sorry to hear that John ;-(
Ow, that's a sore one John, sorry to hear that.
Whilst my own watch collection consists of only three pieces, a casio digital, my MINI Go Faster watch, this one is my pride and joy.....
Hamilton Ventura Chronograph (yes the one from Men In Black II)

Nice box. :thumbs up::thumbs up:
The TW Steel watch looks very nice too. And I like the simplicity of the B & M. Always fancied a leather strap watch.
