Watches - another OCD problem

[Seul]

This is still my plan for December… SARB065 w/ Seiko SARB17 bracelet. I would prefer the look of the leather bracelet, but I can't work in it...

@Finn666 go with the black bay

Ah just saw 007 will be nice too

Seul, I've been eyeing up that SARB065 for a couple of years now, it's beautiful but I really think it needs the leather strap as its a dress style watch. I don't think the metal strap suits it or does it any justice whatsoever.

[Seul]

You are completely right, but I can't wear a leather strap to work, and have been eyeing the damn thing for years as well… It's either buy that and the metal bracelet for it (170 $), or buy it ànd buy a new watch for work. The Monster I have is a brilliant watch, but I kinda grew tired of it already...

I can second that. Bought four from timefactors. Be warned though there can be a waiting list. Took me five weeks to get mine!

It's probably going to be the one I had made for you then?

A recent purchase, I'm now wearing this daily:

72 Tudor Sub

I really liked the design of the new Tudor Black Bay but ultimately opted for something older.  Although it looks comically large in this close up, I prefer the size of the smaller vintage pieces on my wrist.

[davito]

Lovely vintage sub in a splendid condition, dial looks fantastic Q enjoy this beauty @Qinhan

[Chris]

Man, that looks enormous.  Given that it's from 1972, I'm guessing that it's much more reasonably sized, like 38mm?  Very nice, and excellent looking condition for its age.

[Qinhan]

Thanks guys.  Yeah, it's actually 40mm but looks ridiculously large in that pic because of the composition.  This gives you a more accurate feel for its size:

[Sugar Mountain]

Excellent pick up Qinhan! Love it.

[Qinhan]

Thanks mate.  Hoping to see some more photos of your BB when you get time.

[winterland]

Love the Submariner look. Hoping for one some day.

[Sugar Mountain]

Happy to oblige @Qinhan (as long as you don't mind a quick office shot!)

[Qinhan]

Perfect @Sugar Mountain  The deep blue with the snowflake hands are a great combination.  Plus it never ceases to amaze me when people wear wool in HK.  Nice work!
