[madmonday]

they aren't that expensive considering the legend of rolex & what you are supposed to be getting for your money.

haven't taken the plunge yet, but here's my current love:

[alcatraz]

What is it?

[Lucifer]

A  Seiko SNN233 , I was originally pining for another Seiko 5, but they weren't available on amazon, and I had a gift-card on amazon, so.. Got a black zulu strap on it now, looks great!

[alcatraz]

Yeah agreed - looks great

I'm a big fan of the Seiko 5 watches, although the glass isn't the best. Still here's my newest (about 6 months):

And my oldest (about 25 years):

And I've just paid the pre-order deposit on this, which I'm very excited about:

Cheers Seul, it was the first 'proper' watch I owned (I was about 14). It's on the latest of a series of new straps, and still keeps really, really, good time. It's never been serviced either. I'm currently trying to find someone who can replace the hardex face with sapphire crystal, after which I think it will live forever!

I've only really just been reading up on the Dagaz watches over the past month, and I've been really impressed over all with what they're doing. Plus, I can't really afford a Rolex or Omega at the moment, and this looks more fun than the SK007. When the pre-order update hit their site last week I weakened. He's only doing 50 though, this time around, so I thought it was worth it. Bad news is, it won't be ready until about May 2012!

That was indeed a good read!..

I know! That article's why I went and got the new leather strap for my old one. It's not Alligator or anything, it's a Hirsch Duke I think, but it's very good.

I tracked the watch in their article down here:

No affiliation to any of these sites or brands by the way, although I have bought from Chronograph and their service is excellent.

Hehe I went with a Hirsch to replace my 'original' R. Weil bracelet as well… 39 € instead of 129... And the salesman says Weil uses Hirsch bands and just stamps them...
