Watches - another OCD problem

@goosehd said in Watches - another OCD problem:

@Brandrea Wanna go for drinks??

You’ve already got me in enough trouble here through all your enabling.

[goosehd]

@Brandrea Please don't get mad at me, but @Giles and the IH crew makes me do it or I get punished...

[goosehd]

This is a watch that I picked up because of the simplicity of the watch face. That and to tide me over…

[WhiskeySandwich]

@goosehd dude! Super nice. Noticed a new guy at work had one of those, and we ended up chatting for an hour about the finer things in life. Then somehow the convo turned into salmonella and the resulting “accidents”.

[Brandrea]

@goosehd lovely 8 day! Gotta love a manual wind watch … nothing better for that bonding experience.

[goosehd]

Example of the last time I acted up and the resulting punishment...

I sort of want to get one, just to see how good/bad it is...

@Giles I’m sure you would be good…it states “ALL WATCHES GUARANTEED 100% GENUINE”

[Giles]

Phew - and 99% discount

Sorry I am late to the conversation but his GO is the blue two tone

I have tried it on and Lord how hard it is to give back. @Graeme I love the Bathyscaphe and would love to have one (all except the ceramic).

You guys would laugh me off the forum if I told you what I have my eye on….

[goosehd]

@Anesthetist Don't be shy...we're not judgemental

[Anesthetist]

A Kermit but not what you think….

[Graeme]

@Anesthetist I'm guessing you're after a very green Oris...

[Anesthetist]

Well done Sherlock Graeme

[mclaincausey]

Agreed that Oris is so cool

Seamaster on codora strap and deployant clasp. The strap is originally from the dark side of the moon speedmaster, I’m really enjoying this set up, the whole thing is fairly substantial and I reckon the stap and clasp suit this particular watch. The codura is solid and the red contrast stitching on the inside is a nice detail. I’d prefer if the strap was lined with rubber rather than leather but the leather feels like it’s been treated in some way that it seems rubberised(?) I’m not sure that’s a real thing but it doesn’t feel to be particularly porous, it’s kind of rubbery to touch. In any case it’s very comfortable to wear.

@VoodooRay that’s a nice watch, and the strap really does look good with it.

[VoodooRay]

@IrishHeart Thank you sir. Apart from the bracelet this is the best strap option I've found for this one.

[mclaincausey]

Great setup. I think I prefer to the bracelet.
