I think those are only in the "Heritage" line, at least, so far.

Could be a sign of things to come, though.


I could really go for a "style" series. Maybe in 38mm.

I have tiny, wimpy wrists, so I should stay with the smaller watch faces.

Oh, by the way, which one's "Pink?"

Have you seen the Black Bay 36mm just announced?



I go back and forth on the Black Bay something fierce. I really like the way they look, especially the "old" model with the ETA movement that has a simpler dial. But I have a hard time justifying buying one given that I already own a Sub. But, on the other hand, all my divers are date models so maybe I "need" a no date diver?

Wow, I quite like that Black Bay!
What are those going to run?

Anyone see the limited edition Valtteri Bottas Oris? I'm on my phone & can't link it right now, but I really like how it looks. It's a 44mm, so again don't know if it would be too big for my wrist.

I saw that one on their website last night. A very handsome watch!

that Citizen you posted a picture of is very similar to the one I own. Its tough as a tank. Over three years old and not a scratch anywhere, even the glass. I received a double discount at Macys. (Christmas and opening a charge account) I bought my wife a $135.00 Citizen Eco drive (not radio controlled) and its good for 3 seconds a month. Somebody at Citizen must have a sense of humor.

I think I want one of these, first.

I like the Tudor Ranger heritage. Looks very classic yet rugged. Like a Rolex explorer 1 but on a canvas strap that evokes exploring in the jungles

You could probly ge it for closer to 2200 if you shop around. I am surprised it's a 41mm. It doesn't look that big

Don't let my "Near Seattle" location fool you; I don't work for Microsoft, Amazon, OR Boeing. $2500 or $2200, it might as well be 2.5 million. ;-)

Given the lazy evening after a big brunch, a lume shot of one of the watch boxes seemed like a good thing to do.

I'll play Tudor, but I have to use a pic from my archives. Sold this a year or so ago.

Tudor "Small Rose" cal 390 with a waffle dial. Circa 1958. 34mm and wore just perfectly!

Found the satellite Citizen in a local shop in the mall, fills my wrist, but I don't think it's too big. Will be shooting Dave and email to get an estimate.

Found a couple images of it: Sounds like it has a full carbon fiber case


No idea what MSRP is on it, but something in me wants one.

Some do, but not all. They are all nice watches.

They look that big on your wrist. They are all dial, with little bezel, and you might almost think they were 43mm on. I really liked the watch until I tried one on, and then found it to be too big.

From Russia with love:



A $40 eBay special Vostok. Hardly haute horologie but kind of neat to own nonetheless.
