Watches - another OCD problem

[bertoni]

@Graeme Thanks mate, will do. I was wondering if someone on here might point me in the direction of a decent 'How to change a strap on a watch without lug holes' sort of vid? The Sinn apparently has no lug holes and i'm wondering how you actually change straps? VERY noobie I know but hey, you gotta start somewhere no?

i think what you need is a spring bar tool. the ones they use on a newer sub without lug holes. you've to be very careful lest you scratch your casing tool.

Do I detect a hint of sarcasm? Cheeky f**ker! Thanks for the info.

i wish there was but there isn't. only after you mentioned it and i read further before i realise what you were on about…

[bertoni]

The sleeve of the jacket reminds me of my black GK

@Giles:

Don't want

if G don't want it,  I will take it @Tempvs  ::)

Funny, my dad has that same 50 Fathoms Blanc Pain watch…

[Graeme]

I actually prefer the Ladoire to the Fifty Fathoms. A London shop had one in for 75% off at an invitation-only sale. I was very tempted.

That movement looks fantastic.

If you're after a non-traditional watch…

It's the Bulgari Gérald Genta Gefica. There's an old write-up at aBlogToWatch.

Genta was the designer responsible for the IWC Ingenieur, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and Patek Nautilus. This was developed under his own watch brand, which was acquired by Bulgari in 1999.

I suspect that @Giles won't like it. I'm not 100% sure about it myself, but it strongly appeals because it's so different, and I've got a bronze case fetish going on right now. Apparently there might still be a few new old stock pieces floating around…

[Giles]

Funnily enough, i quite like that…

[Graeme]

I'd like to see how the Bulgari wears. It's quite a bit watch, but I'm used to wearing a 44 mm piece on a daily basis, so it might not be a problem.

aBlogToWatch has a piece up about Bremont. @GingerMagician might be interested in reading it.
