Being a Christopher Ward fan today I'm wearing my 37mm CW Sealander. To be fair it is too small for my liking, lovely but if it were 40mm or even 42mm I'd prefer it.

Yeah, nice. CW are very good at, ahem, lets say, being inspired by other designs. The one I'm wearing is an inspiration of my Omega Aqua Terra, as in water land in English. They need to get away from that as they are talented in their own right but need to start proving it to gain any decent reputation. Their watches though are phenominal value, especially used.The new Genta inspired CW's look interesting: https://www.christopherward.com/the-twelve-watches/the-twelve/C12-40ADA1-S00W0-B0.html
Bit like a Royal Oak crossed with an Aqua Terra.

I think that is because it is zoomed in. I view 37mm watches as Ladies watches. I bought this one and my Trident Pro Bronze, which is lovely but is 38mm in haste. I'm repenting at leisure, although I'll probably sell them both shortly. They don't hold new price but they are fairly steady as used so I won't lose on them.Looks like a good fit in that picture

Yeah, I don't do integrated bracelets so also a no-go for me... I think they will look extremely dated in 5-10 years, just as they did 10 years ago lol.I really not a Genta style fan. The only exception is the Tissot PRX.
Found this 9ct gold plated Grandad watch in an antique shop today... Condition is mint so I couldn't leave it.

Gave it a wind, popped the back off, gave the regulator a little nudge and voilà... Sweet as a nut.

Those are pretty amazing numbers
I had a Tissot Gold Seastar Seven like that. Passed down from my Dad. Quick wind and off it went. Sadly after an argument with the wife about hording junk I threw it in the binto prove a point to her. Made no difference to her hording.Not too shabby for something which doesn't appear to have been serviced since manufacture some time in the mid 70s.
Very nice mate. One thing I'm missing in my collection is a good automatic Chrono. I'm on the look out but they aren't easy to find at a good price.
