  1. Still loving the Rollies after all these years, this ceramic looks very nice but I will wait until we see a review. Besides, one day we might get all our wish list fixed on the sub..... how long does it take to get such a simple utility watch right
  2. Suns out so time to get the Cabbie cleaned and ready

  7. Being so close to the Solent thought a Regatta might be nice.
  8. 44mm on a 7.5 wrist Leather does indeed always wear different Got bored a lot when I was a kid, hence bigger wrists
  9. Much like a Battlestar Galactica version of the Harry Winston Opus V which I think is fab though no good after a night in the pub. Check it
  10. How about Brussels............... And we get Stephane some extra help around the place
  11. Oh come on Lani, thats a REP arm, they never get the colours just right and I bet it has a rubbish lume, plus the mag is all wrong
  12. In my finest traditions here is a little helping hand: Warsaw Prague That London Gotta have Estonia on there - Tallinn Rocks Pannie Heaven - Florence Ladies and Gentlemen - I give you Budapest I see a pattern emerging here.............
  13. Ditto..... But it is better I go to a place I will not mind leaving afterwards. Actually Poland could work well, just make sure I get on the return flight
  14. Its only about an hour flight from most of Europe so.......
  15. Well, if Lundun comes up I am sure I can get my butt up/down there.....
  16. Bring my missus anywhere near shops....... (enjoy the moment, me shocked into silence)
  17. Wasn't London considered as an option, I can always escape and slip my marital chains to get there
  18. My thoughts are various on this subject. I love my big watches but I prefer something utilitarian with my jeans, but put on a suit and its will usually be the 2Tone Sub, Seamaster or a nice Patek. I think the fashion aspect is unimportant to myself, its more about what works with what, I always thing think idiot when I see a guy in a nice suit with cheap, dirty shoes, work the same with a watch, cheap Casio or big G-shock with a suit fails to make the outfit work. Equally, a 40+mm sports watch with a suit, with or without good shoes, looks flash, out of place or just plain stooped (P. Dippy). Besides, maybe I am a bit retentive but I love to match watch straps and Crockett and Jones or Barkers (Church are becoming victim of their own success) and belts...... taste people, its individual. Fashion is something that is sold to us by people who stick with classic styles, the fashionistas are the victims there, examples, Lagerfeld, Coco Chanel etc. A watch is an extension of the ensemble not its guiding light
  19. I have the blue version and I really love it, but this is not an under the cuff timetank. Great review, quit tempted get the black version as well now
  20. POint of order chaps, Connemara and Bushies so far are the only two proper single malts in the list. For more info check out here Wikipedia Irish Frisky Juices
  21. Aged Jamies is great or maybe Connemara Cask Strength from the West Coast
  22. The rose gold looks nice I must admit but I am hearing start prices from
  23. I am forced to agree, in all honesty since my grandfather was an Engineer on the Titanic I consider this making money out of what is effectively grave robbing. It is one thing to see say an item in an exhibition or museum, quite another to use it as a selling point to make someone richer. If they were making some kind of donation to a maritime charity then it would be something but this is simple using history to sell something none of us would usually consider buying. Just my 37 pence worth
