Re: Squale Elite Italian Dive Squad LE

Alas a 10mtrs surface dive when snorkeling would be my limit nowadays.. I think a CW 300 would do the job 🙂.
It's a true tool watch though and I appreciate its capability, I'd personally save a few mm and wear it down the pub though. 😄

Re: For Porsche lovers

🙂 The Fuchs wheels are iconic and I had them on a 70s 911 years ago. May be a bit much on a watch dial bit it's definitely a fun piece for a true classic porsche aficionado.

Re: Squale Elite Italian Dive Squad LE

Been looking at and researching a few Squales recently. I like the form and functionality the 1521s seem to hit the size spot at 42mm x 14mm eg the wave dialed 1521ODG.PS stood out. I need to learn more about their many LE models. This one is really appealing: LE, Titanium, cool blue dial, robust, a...

Re: Summer sale ?

Everyone knows that Thursdays are the worst day for a bargain.. never anything good , high prices, low stock.. In fact, don't even bother looking it will save time and ultimately disappointment.
Of course I will be following my own advice 😉 😆

OK, not me but a certain Alain Menu (for those that appreciate his Touring Car exploits) wearing his Daytona (NCWOTD 🙂). Very friendly man and we had a nice chat.

Re: Caterham and Lotus Seven Club C63 LE

Great creation, really like the dial treatment and 7 is a cool feature. Now I should really stop buying watches and finally get into that Evora I've been thinking about for years (OK not quite a 7 but fun nonetheless). 🙂

Re: Spring bar tool or pliers

Thanks guys, I'll take a look at the horofix but good quality bits in a cheaper tool may be a decent compromise too.

Spring bar tool or pliers

Advice please as I've found Im changing straps and bracelets more frequently. Whilst I use 2 bergeon tools to date (medium and fine) which are decent I wandered if I would be better with spring bar pliers for my Omegas, Breitlings also Harrods Autavia and now the Rolex. I'm careful but getting paran...

Re: The most overpriced watches…

It's an interesting concept 'overpriced', as pointed out above its the difference between a functional commodity and a proposition. Luxury goods consumers are rarely just buying a watch/car/clothes they are acquiring perceived quality, craftmanship, dreams, image, status, exclusivity etc supported b...
