That is absolutely amazing! I have a new favorite watch now!

Very cool. 😐

I love my 1980's Admiral's Cup (as well as my Rolex of course).

Nice found! Real nice idea 🙂 A watch without hands 🙂

IMHO the dial is a just a  little bit unusual, and I really prefer the AM/PM scale in it. I looked around this watch, and I found, that there are something like this called as "Harry Winston Opus X", however Opus X is far more expensive, and IMHO not so good looking as this. As far as I can see this watch is selling about $13.000 with a heavily modified ETA movement,  so it's an affordable watch against to the Opus X.

Just for fun, here is another very genuine ETA installation:  Epos 3391, which has one of the most common ETA3371 movement installed, but still looks competely different than any other ETA installations:

By the above, if somebody can find a reliable solution for this look:

Then please do not hesitate to share it with me :)

One of my current weekend watches, Nautilus 5712.  To be fair not the most comfortable of watches to wear, but a nice semi complication Patek.

Can anyone give advice on my next watch. I want something high quality but fairly subtle and understated(most people I work with have huge vulgar Breitlings). Give me time and i will contradict myself!

1st Choice and nothing to do with its name is the Rolex Air King. Simple, affordable and top quality. Something I could get up in the morning and smile to myself about.

2nd Choice the Ball Engineer 2 Arabic £1750. As above but with tritium which my current watch has and can be useful, and day date. The Rolex doesn't have this. COSC certified eta movement and about £1500 less!!

3rd Choice Fortis B-42 Pilot Proffesional. Actually 2 watches from same model. Simple day date with same movement as Ball but not COSC certified(standard quality) but £950.

The chronograph version with the eta 7750 movement at £2100.

The Rolex has a great name and as long as that name has a long heritage of making the best, then to me that makes a difference. I like its simplicity .

The Ball in many ways a more useful watch and cheaper, with day date and tritium but fairly bland. I think I'd end up always thinking maybe I should have got the Rolex.

The Fortis are again more affordable and have a dedicated following, but I have my reservations about their use of baulk standard movements. They do little modifications. 

Over to you
