For a dressier occasion, I wear an IWC Portuguese Chrono.
And my everyday beater is a Breitling Steelfish.
I don't know what I'd like to get for my next watch but I am not allowed to buy one anytime soon.
- imho, the Portugueser is the only chrono around not looking like a racetrack instrument. Sexy stuff.Peter
- interesting how the 12 and 6 i think) are obscured.SteveJobs
- Stunning watch, love it!CodenameAM
- That's a nice one, too bad IWC are so outrageous!formed

I used to watch (eh eh) in befuddlement the enthusiast as they went of about movement and about heritage.
Even the costliest of watches still had that +5/-5 second per day off.
With an iphone in my pocket, besides my ping-pong equipment, I were amused: the phone never needs adjustment (and if it does, it does so by itself).So I snickered.
I wrote them off as crazy; that's what I do.Until I got my first (ahem) quality piece.
Listening closely it seems to have a life of its own. Hundreds or so tiny parts moving, turning, springing, day in and day out. A tiny piece of living machinery resting on my arm, living its life there.It is, put short, pretty great.
I still point and snicker at people though.
- is this original exposition you've written here? if so, its pretty great.formula
- Once you wear a quality automatic watch, it's hard to go back. btw, my IWC is +2 second/day.rogersterling
- LOOK AT MY FUCKING STRIPED SHIRT!fooler2
- Ha! Yes, that's an original (but feel free to google it...with or without my spelling errors).Peter
- I'll return to normal, crap posting standards shortly.Peter
- fooler2, GLAD YOU LIKED IT.
It's a cheap-ass Simon Carter shirt.Peter

I'd love a Bell & Ross or a U-Boat, but the missus is in school and I'm on the hook for some of her bills. So, I'm going for the next best thing in TSOVET. Particularly the SVT-AT76:
Does anyone have one? Thoughts on the make?
Cheers in advance.
- Does it have a night-time mode?74LEO
- Damn fine question, I'm not sure.
Doesn't say here: https://tsovet.3dcar…Andrew_D - I wouldn't go get a Tsovet. It just looks like a bad imitation of a BR. Also it's a quartz watch.rogersterling
- Tsovet is $575. That's about 30% of a new BR 03. If what you really want is a BR, then save and wait.rogersterling
- Had a look the other day at one and it wasn't built well, guess I'll just hold out for the B&R.Andrew_D
- If I were a ninja I might like this.CygnusZero4

wow. i can't conceive of spending 4-5 digits for a bit of metal on your wrist that your cell phone can already outdo... incredible.
but, different strokes for different blokes i guess.
carry on.
- i was dumbfounded by the price myself, but all things are available in excess********
- < this
$250 at the most. it's like fucking sunglasses. you use them all the time, and they take a beating...lvl_13 - ...a beating. plus, styles change, and you change. people can swear by a watch, but you can also just fucking swear.lvl_13
- ...swear!
fucking tiny notes bastards!lvl_13 - It is jewelry at this level. No purpose to a diamond ring, either, but try explaining that!formed
