Thread: What types of watches do you like?

An action photo of my

Rolex Sea-Dweller this summer.

Watch that coral and that watch.

My latest toy. Bought because of course I like the looks, and because I like what I read about the co-axial movement. Not sure whether I shouldn't have bought a larger version instead of this 42mm one.



ps: sorry about all the hair

Beautiful! Some watches are not meant to be huge and this one is a perfect example of it IMO.

It depends if you have Gorilla wrists or not. For most folks 42-44 is plenty big and it looks like that is the right size for you.

I used to have a Railmaster with the Daniels escapement. Those movements are dead accurate and go longer between servicing.

Nice watch by the way.

42 to 44 is indeed the right size for me! I was more thinking of the watch itself: it's quite thick, and I think that for this thickness it would be prettier if a bit taller.

This here is another one of my favourite watches. I've been a Seiko fan for a while but I never actually bought one. I just didn't seem to be able to make up my mind about a model. Too many dive watches, and I find the Grand Seiko's magnificent but too expensive. Until I stumbled on this one: the Seiko Cocktail Time Sarb065. A classic dress watch, but with a most wonderful dial which seems almost alive in the sunlight. At 40mm, it is small at today's standards, but as was said above, some watches are meant to be small.

I'm happy to shave my face and trim here and there, but arm and/or leg and/or chest shaving: nevah

Love watches with the mechanism exposed, you know the gears and such, love chronometer watches I have a Seiko watch but Rolex is the watch I like but out of my budget.
