flymango Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Hi flymango, yip got one and it works brilliant. It keeps the watch in a 'safe' place and you also never have to adjust time if you haven't wore the watch for more than two days.Hardcore!!

gummibear Posted November 29, 2011 Author Posted November 29, 2011 Seeing as this thread has gone a bit beyond "what are you wearing"......the wishlist - and still realistically priced, i.e. affordable by mortal man Tutima Grand Classic ChronoSinn 900 Flieger Sinn 857 UTCNomos Club DateFortis B42 FliegerAnonimo Polluce BronzeAnonimo Marlinand lastly Nomos Sundial (sadly only works properly in the northern Hemisphere, but I live in hope they make a southern hemisphere one) ...don't much like mainstream brands as you may notice. No fan of quartz either, all the above are mechanical...even the Sundial  I really like the Fortis B42.
amasendeinja Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 www.chrono24.com Ebay for watches - new used, private sellers, retailers - they're all there and pretty much any brand you could ever thing of. Prices in SA way over the top IMHO
Eldron Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 This is what I love about the hub - you could ask for advice on spaying siberian husky puppies and guaranteed a hubber will post a pic by pic how to DIY. Strong the knowledge is in this hubber world!

Rating systems like Ebay has work like a charm. I should know, my wife spends a fortune on Ebay every year and never once a had a problem.

Some very nice Hublots too!!
SeaBee Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Does a white ICE-ID (non-)tan count as a watch?
