Well, we’ve done Rolex, Tribus and CW.

Which brand should we pick on now? :D

Apart from all the sales you mean? Not for nothing are they often referred to as the DFS of watch brands. Easy to pick on any brand really.
I must admit that I’d heard Tribus referred to as the DFS of watch brands before but hadn’t heard it since the 70% off sales 😂

Some of the Brentford fan comments at time of launch were so funny 😂

Soft target. We need something more challenging.

Yep, we’ve heard all that. Next. :wink:

Here’s one. Oris. Bit of a forum darling brand of late. I must confess I have absolutely no idea why.

For continued discussion about brands other than Tribus I'd respectfully suggest opening another thread.

^^^ Agreed, and thanks for the reminder. I was one of those who took it off topic so I apologise for that.

I get the impression that this is usually meant as a derogatory comment but if CW or TRIBUS (just to come back on topic :) ) ever get to posting the annual profits of DFS I expect they would be very happy.

No, check the forums. As you well know, its CW. I'm not saying it's right, after all, I have taken advantage of them, but any brand can be mocked. Even watch brands can be guilty of mocking others. Some justifiably. Just not sure why Tribus have hit a nerve with some here?

I’m tempted by the TRI-01 Small Second COSC. The 40s design clues are unmistakable, add the teal dial and IMHO it makes for an attractive watch.

Without trawling back through all posts has anyone got any real life shots of the TRI-01?
If so could they do a mini review?

The photograph above is a real life shot. As for a review this made for an honest read:
