          Currently wearing this.

          I bust the strap bar on my 50 fathoms, and it is not a spring bar, it's a tube and two minuscule allen screwy/bolty things, which are like rocking horse shit, so have the parts on order....

            @Pipeboss713 I like your taste. I picked up an Expedition in 2010 and love its understated look. It’s a perfect fit for me.

              @Giles no need to apologize, in fact I hope you post more. I have my Mark XVIII to keep me company and will work my way to hopefully finding one used. The new price is rather staggering.

                Who are you, and what have you done with the real @Anesthetist? You never used to be a fan of big watches. 😁

                I like the Big Pilot with the Big Date complication. Mr Porter still have a few listed with the bronze case.

                  That IWC is lovely but the price is ... huh ... high?

                      @JDelage I feel the same. There are so many amazing watches in the 13k range that out class the IWC in so many ways. In truth I dont think I’ll ever get the Big Pilot but for now it will be an object of lust.

                                        Cartier does design better than most luxury watch brands in my opinion. The Tanks are extra good. I have a Tank American and my wife has a Tank Cintree from a couple years back.

                                          I agree @JDelage, Cartier seem to be able to nail design very well. I was sad to the "Drive de Cartier" line axed. I thought this was a versatile line within the collection.

                                          The line I struggle with is the Santos ( contrary to popular opinion ) None of the flat face screw heads on the bezel or bracelet align. I am not OCD but I can't really cope with the randomly finished screw heads on the Santos.

                                          There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.
