      Which is one of the ones I had.......I sold it (way tooo cheap 🙂 ) to fund my 50 fathoms....Which in all the years I have been wearing it, only one person has recognised....

        Darn…

        Actually, the funny thing is I really only wear one watch now. I will occasionally switch it up, but it has been months or maybe years since I switched it up on a daily or even every few day basis. I am getting to the point where I think I only need two watches: an everyday piece and the one I’ve always dreamed of.

        Edit: I don’t know all their different model numbers, etc. but I’m sure like everybody else in the world I love this one or the modern one. IMG_1304.png

          I beat the shit out of my watches. I have a few daily beaters and a few good watches, but like you, once I am wearing one, it takes something big for me to be bothered to change....

              I’m about to make your shit list, but I think there are similarities… and as somebody that really likes Rolex, I don’t see it as a bad thing. So here we go it was nice “knowing”’you.😳

              Rolex and Iron Heart are similar because neither tries to be the most artistic or niche. They focus on durability, consistency, and long-term reliability. There may be more interesting options at the same price, but very few brands execute “classic and overbuilt” as consistently. Safe done right becomes timeless.

                @Giles I have to say, my five digit GMT Master is one of my faves. So fair point.

                  @northsouthdenimguy the 5 digit GMT is one of my faves. I'm not a big fan of acrylic bezels generally.

                    There may be some similarities, but there are sure as heck a lot of dissimilarities. Better to talk about them over a pint.

                      Not to belabor the point, but I will, and I would love to grab a pint one day.

                      I was not comparing how you all run the business. I was talking about the similarities in iconic status, classic designs, overengineering, and that consistent, no nonsense durability that defines both brands.
