Er.. Looks like you've got to broaden your horizon a bit before making such assumptions...

As mentioned before - these are campaign wristbands.

FYI: Two of those relate me to my area of professional interest, e.g. Photography and Videography and support an internet resource used to help novice photographers with tips & info.

The other one is RNLI Lifeboat support

 

I've not seen a decent watch on here yet. So far it looks like a catalogue of what's upcoming in next weeks Aldi special offers.

 

LOL don't worry about what Dingle is saying, morgentau. That's just his sense of humour , he means no harm.

Other than that, we all have our preferences. IMO wristbands are cool. Your retro watches are cool as well. My favourite among yours is the last, black manual one. Looks mint!

 

After eight, and look what's happens to them in the sunlight

 

They'll melt, obviously. Mine got all eaten over Christmas, although I can eat one right now.

 

I'm only nine years behind... ;-)

 

You're just dying to show us your gold Rolex aren't you? Or maybe a Hublot? I just know it'll be expensive but as classy as an orange perma tan and a Kahn wheeled Range Rover.

Tee hee...

 

Hope this meets with your approval V!

 

 

Nice. I do like the dive style Breitlings.
The Esther long named Avenger Seawolf black steel yellow is particularly nice. They do seem to drop a fair bit in value though, unlike a few of the posh brands.

 

Gotta love the SN Dinosaurs. Can't wear a band without being gay, LMAO.

Best crawl back under your stone and come out when you've finally evolved.

 

Have to say, after a day of comedy bad timekeeping (I guess it was "charging" up the auto mechanism) the Aldi Seiko is keeping flipping good time. Bit of a surprise.

 

I found a good wristband that campaigns for a very popular phenomenon on line.
As cheap as £1.95p on some website.

A wee puppy then.

 

Evolved into what? Something like you

Perhaps one day you'll evolve into something with a sense of humour

I take it you wear bits of plastic around your wrist and even perhaps a nice beaded necklace just to finish off the look?

 

I've also got orange polarized Oakley Jawbones. Clashes with the gold but matches my brashness ;-)

 

I feel naked without a watch. I own several watches mainly Seiko but the main watches i wear are a Tissot T-Race 2007 Motogp ans my Zenith el primero chronomaster T moonphase. Im not a fan of overly large watches and find my Tissot a bit bulky.

 

Now that's quality.

 

I came across this video the other day, top 10 most complicated watches. Have a look, whoever is interested

 

Chopper; love the Zenith!

Scoobynutta; Oakley shades - absolutely perfect to complete "the look..." ;-)

 

Now that's a porno movie
Here's some Zenith ****.

 

Did felix really have time to look at his zenith on the way down.

 

Don't know. He came down too fast for me to notice

 

Hmm - two Zeniths (both Tourbillons) are on their website for £46k - gulp!

 

Yeah, there a hell of a complicated movement to make. My 410 el primero takes 60 weeks to make so god knows how long the Tourbillon takes.

 

My 2007 Tissot T-Race Motogp.

 

60 WEEKS?!

I can just imagine the Zenith watchmakers year:

January - started work on Choppers watch. I'm having to extract the raw materials myself by hand.

March - the smelting is finished and we're making progress.

July - it's very hot today and I'm still making Chopper's watch.

September - yes, it's looking like a watch. But my God am I bored of making it.

February the next year - I'm nearly sodding well there.

March - it's FINISHED! Time to make the next one...

 

I think its like that at Patek Philippe. It takes one watchmaker over 10 years to make a Grand complication. With the Zenith el primero they have 20 watch makers building the watches. They take 60 weeks to manufacture but as there are 20 watchmakers i would think a batch is made over that 60 weeks. Its the back plate that takes most of the time on this movement as that's the heart for a complicated centre column movement.
Its a 36,000 vbh movement (10 beats per second) automatic chronograph with day, date, month, moonphase and 12 hour 1,1/10 sec chronograph complications. These watchmakers have to be from another planet with their engineering skills. That's the part that flicks my switch with watches. Gold case and diamonds don't do it for me, but handmade complicated movements is watch **** imo.
