Re: MoonSwatch Mission to Moonphase Snoopy
Original price c. $300
Two questions:
1. Will people buy them at x10 markup?
2. Why?
It won’t be for the pleasure of wearing it, I’ll be bound.

Re: What brands are we missing?
I remembered that we did this “snapshot” three years ago. The most popular “other brands”? The initial conclusions were published here on page 5, but were slightly skewed by collections containing many watches by a single brand that wasn’t universally popular. Others with more statistical nous looke...

Re: What brands are we missing?
Well, the holy trinity and most other ultra galactic brands are a bit thin on the ground, probably understandable. On a more affordable level… Looking at what’s in my own slightly eclectic box, I’d love to see more Ulysse Nardin, MeisterSinger and especially Cartier. Cartier are a massive, popular a...

Re: missF - March 2024
It has been fascinating to watch your development as a watch owner, wearer, enthusiast and burgeoning expert. Now…you and I both know we don’t have a great deal in common as far as colour and style are concerned, but we do appreciate quality, and that’s a fine collection. Well done, and here’s to th...

Re: Watch Storage
In general, best to let it stop. That’s just my opinion.
How many months? Even if not used consistently, a little exercise occasionally is good for them, as it keeps the lubricants moving.

Re: Power Reserve, "Stated v Real life"
It has never really bothered me because of the way I wear my watches: same watch for several days (or a couple of weeks on a trip) followed by several weeks in the box. Automatics stay wound and manuals are topped off daily, so it’s never an issue. I let new ones run down after a while and keep an e...

Re: Uncomfortable watching for anyone here?
It didn’t make me uncomfortable, but I did smile remembering the early days. Now that I have amassed an eclectic collection of decent watches with little repetition, I’m more relaxed. I bought one watch last year; from what I’ve seen so far I probably won’t be buying any this year.

Re: 50th birthday watch - Schofield The Light / General Purpose Field Watch
I know pete - no worries. You're a proper watchie who likes watches - for other people or for you. I was glad of your thoughts because often we're scared to disagree with anyone these days. And I think you're right - as little as I know myself this one seems to go with me well :D It’s an interestin...

Re: Six Nations 2024
@Bahnstormer_vRS Agreed. Any top team should be able to do that. The equivalent of taking it to the corner flag in football.
Back in the old days Winterbottom or Richards would have stuck it up his jumper, a static maul would form and that would be that.
