Nigel I do like attention to detail. :)

Most excellent that the shirts looked to be arranged from left to right, in increasing levels of flamboyance!

Are you also someone that ensures all labels on jars and tins face forward in the fridge and cupboards?

Very nice pick up Nigel, notwithstanding the Panerai roots of the brand (and the cushion styled case), I definitely see the Explorer/Sealander similarities, albeit it is distinctive and has its own original design features such as the aforementioned 4,8,12 indices. Perfect symmetrical dial too.

The Anonimo watch: I'm an ignoramus and need to surf a bit of 'web today.

The shirts: I'm strictly a Charles Tyrwhitt wearer so stripes and "tablecloth" checks are as jolly as I go. I'm quite partial to polos in big bold, early learning centre colours.

Thank you Neil :thumbup:
The arrangement is infact work to casual which also happens to coincide with an increasing level of flamboyance :D
I do indeed :) ... it may be considered as OCD but when I open the fridge or a cupboard I like to see exactly what I'm looking for rather than having to rummage around.

Actually from left to right - Charles Tyrwhitt (plain and stripes), Samuel Windsor (checks and country) and Joe Browns (flamboyant).
The short sleeved collection is a bit of a mix'n'match but, as can be seen, includes some very flamboyant/Hawaiian style ones :D

I'm playing catch-up on unread threads.

That's a nice one Nigel, a good solid looking Diver. H S Johnson do manage to come up with some great deals.

Is it going to stay on the bracelet?

Thanks Guy :thumbup:
I honestly don't know how H S Johnson manage to do some of the prices and, what's more, I was able to get a further 15% off the sale price with a voucher I had as a returning customer :D
For the time being it's staying on the bracelet which has sized nicely and very comfortable
...albeit I do have other options available :wink:

Great looking diver, having seen and tried on one just before lockdown, was impressed with the overall look and feel. Great pickup!
