SLA023J1

Me too, but damn it’s big.

Anyone fancy a wrist jacuzzi?

Last check if anyone wants my Speedmaster before I list it elsewhere?
A decent £500 off retail, absolutely mint. Big box version with all the gadgets like loupe, strap tool, nato etc. Warranty card stamped on the 5th of Jan, so first Speedy Tuesday of the year and the day the new one came out.
PM me for details if interested.

Have a great week people!

I think Vulcain used them too. Cool watches.

Funky.

Oh yeah, that one...

This might be one of the most domed crystals in the business (Corum is in a league of their own).

I would definitely love to try the MM300. It apparently wears ok.

Or... SLA023j1
Edit: that was a bad photo.

I think it's enough colour, the Rolex, Speedy and the SLA could be the perfect 3 watch collection. Anything else is a bonus.

It is though :-)

I agree wholeheartedly. I love everything about that watch apart from that “small” problem. And I can’t own a watch I won’t wear.

Yes, of course.

I find the Hamilton to be much more enjoyable, I can actually grab the crown and get a good feel for it. The Speedy, not so much. And the FOIS was even worse - felt like the bezel was getting in the way.

This time it’s the winding. It’s been a week and I’ve worn it for maybe 2 days, but kept it wound and it’s annoying me already. Sausage fingers, I guess. I wonder if the new one is much different, some people say the crown is a bit bigger.

I feel like this is a safe space with no judgment...

Anyone looking for a Hesalite Speedy at a discount? :-)

I think this is quite lovely.

@jonlubi very cool! Congratulations.

Tissot PRX - quite a few people from the watch forum are returning them straight away, so anyone keen please consider that they do wear big apparently. One guy said this, which sums it up nicely:

"It does wear really big. My wrist is just under 7 inches and this felt like a big flat plate on my wrist. It's nice and thin but the first bracelet link doesn't move so it feels like it's really long lug to lug. I've had several 42mm watches, PO, Pelagos, etc but this somehow wore even bigger than those. Even my B&R BR03 wore smaller.

In summary, it's good value, nicely finished but definitely see it and try it on in the flesh, and if you're wrist is under 7 inches I wouldn't recommend it."

Hope this helps someone (or maybe saves £300).

Oh, I see.

We shall see I guess!

Great.

@D-Dog 50% what?

To be fair, the marker at 4 o'clock cut by the date at 4:30 is much worse to my eyes.

Oh, the blue one is long gone, but I started thinking about getting it again maybe.

@ChainBreaker not for me at this point, maybe when I'm past my 50s and start pooping money...
Interestingly, I much prefer the winding on the Hamilton than the speedy (probably main reason is the large crown). It also runs at around +0.8s per day.

I quite like the rose gold YM, but again, might as well go further if you're going there. And also, I don't think it'd look good with my skin tone.

@Heldring You'd probably be able to pick them up for 50% off in a few months. Looks great!

It’s nothing crazy man.
These 3 and the Tudor.
