Interesting as obviously I can’t see any cliques here yet.

Evening all, I'm a long-time member with a pretty small post-count, mainly due to having limited time and being involved in other forums. I've been mooching around here for the last week or so and what has struck me more than anything is the love of watches over here. Any and all watches, regardless of cost or status. That might sound like a strange thing to say on a watch forum but other forums I belong to are much more about how much money people have, which is the best investment watch and, disappointingly, slagging off people who aren't in the clique. So if it's OK with you lot I might spent a bit more time over here.

Currently obsessed with Stormzy's new album.

Thanks folks, I think my question has been answered and I'll leave it running. Cheers.

....if you're not wearing it for a while? If I'm going to wear my auto for say, a week, should I pull the crown on my quartz? I'm thinking purely for the purposes of battery life but I heard that they still use battery when stopped so is it worth it? What do you do and does it significantly extend battery life? Thanks.

An interesting read, thanks for sharing. I love the design and would like to find the Bulova version one day.

I've spent ages tonight trying to upload a couple of photos to a new classified ad and I cannot do it. This site used to be so easy to use but now it's impossible. All I want to do is upload a pic for Christ sake - why should it be so hard?????

I love the black dial you have, exactly the watch I'm after.

"I told you I was ill"

Will it be branded on the dial Roy? It's personal preference but I think the pilot style is best with a sterile dial.

In theory, yes. However it depends on each individual purchase price and differentials. A couple of recent nightmares with on-line sellers (businesses, not individuals) has me wanting the warm hug of an AD.

This should arrive next week; 40mm auto, 316L s/s, see-through case back, heated-treated blue hands and seller reports timekeeping is 5spd. Looking forward to this one: This should arrive next week; 40mm auto, 316L s/s, see-through case back, heated-treated blue hands and seller reports timekeeping is 5spd. Looking forward to this one:

There are trolls like this on every forum and yes, sometimes they target individuals. My advice would be to ignore them, never reply. As I teach my kids, ignore the behaviour you don't want to see.
