                Withings have just announced the Activité. It's a fitness tracker that looks like a traditional watch.

                  I was interested until I watched the video - I can't remember the last time I saw such a pretentious load of shite…It made me want to gag so much, I could not see it though to the end....

                          @Giles if you're after a fitness tracker for swimming then take a look at the Misfit Shine.

                          I didn't watch the pretentious video. But any product with an accent in its name is suspect…

                            Video is a shocker, but I have been using the Withings Scales and Pulse for around a year now (longer on scales). It has modified my life style, and the Mrs and I, even a year in still talk about our daily activities and often compete on week-based steps. Not a gimmick. The sleep side has/does push me to get more sleep. I'll read a few reviews and if 1/2 decent will purchase. 2 watches 😮

                                That is an extraordinarily irritating website.  After the above posts, I had to check it out.  First, it crashed my phone browser.  Then I went there on my laptop and it gave me a headache- too many things moving and shifting on the screen.  And once you've viewed the video, it starts to repeat, which is really not a thing I want to see again.

                                Too bad, since the watch itself looks pretty good, and Withings products in general are well thought out and useable.

                                  Does anyone have recommendations for vintage/ secondhand watch shops in London?

                                  Preferably stockists of Rolex and Tudor.

                                    There's a decent one in the Burlington arcade in Piccadilly (if memory serves) though may be quite pricey! Failing that there used to be a really good pawn shop on the Fulham palace road that used to do great deals. Pawn shops can often be a good shout in my experience.

                                      Thanks @Cutlasshound! I will be sure to check these out when in England next month.

                                          I'd avoid Burlington Arcade because they're sodding expensive.

                                          Watch Arts in Chichester are just up the road from Gosport, and have a decent range of vintage pieces. I'd suggest one of the Omega RAF watches they've got in stock.

                                          Watches of Knightsbridge run regular auctions, the next is on 12th July, which is Fish and Chips. You might pick up a bargain there.

                                            Some nice pieces in that auction! Thanks @Graeme!
