In the end I think I would have a tough time justifying it over a Cranwell or Sandhurst. Especially a MK1 Sandhurst. It is, at its heart, a field watch and nothing really more. It is an excellent field watch though.
MK1 Sandhurst in clearance today £696.50

Re: Let's hear it for the Royal Mail/Parcel Force

I liked it when CW used RMSD. Because I was working full time and rarely at home, I gave CW my work address as the delivery address and the secretaries at school were always very happy to take delivery from the postie. It was always there as stipulated by 1 pm. Let me say though that I have never h...

Re: Fears collaboration

but I do appreciate what Fears is doing A number of people have expressed this in one form or another. What exactly is it Fears “is doing?” I don’t pose that question as a snarky retort. I’m genuinely curious, as I know nothing about the brand/company. What’s their thing, exactly? Link to their his...

Yes, afraid I have to agree.

Although having worked for over 25 years around the corner from Brunswick Square and for the last 15 years close to Redcliff Street in Bristol, a Fears watch is going to have to be my retirement gift to myself :)

I tried calling the office but they are closed I can see it now in GBP on my chromebook. Possibly order it again in pound and then phone them tomorrow to cancel the...
