What watch do you have?

I’ve just pulled the trigger on a new watch. I’ll post pics later. It’s a just released special edition of the latest Omega Seamaster. It’s larger than the standard model @ 43.5mm diameter vs 42mm & it has some other unique styling features too. It’s a perfect size for me so I just had to go for it as I’ve always liked the Seamaster but never got one. Will be my first Omega too. Watch this space :icon thumright:

The car ate all my money so I only rock a G-Shock. It’s a limited edition 35th anniversaries model though so at least it’s a little special haha

I took the plunge Friday on a new watch; my first Rolex. It happened pretty much out of the blue, without any anticipation. Mrs Jeff and I were wandering past Watchfinder in Bluewater and popped in just for a browse. I knew they had a Tag Heueur Monaco in store and I wanted to see how it looked on my wrist. The answer was that it doesn't suit me at all, but Mrs Jeff pointed at a rather amazing looking Rolex and suggested I try it on. I did, and I have to confess, I was smitten on the spot. I said I'd think about it and decided to go home and research it. I'm glad I did, as I soon learned that it's sought-after and difficult to find; so much so that although the new price is £6,300, the three-year old I'd seen was priced up at £6,925.

I called Watchfinder to see if there was any wriggle room and they said they'd go to £6,500 but definitely no lower. I made some more calls and eventually found a brand new one available at Watches of Switzerland in Canary Wharf. It was in the safe, with someone's name on it, but he'd failed to show, so it was mine if I wanted it. I picked it up that evening, with a ten-year warranty.

Here it is; it's a Milgauss GV (the GV stands for glace vert, or green crystal).

That is beautiful! If I was in the market for a watch in that price range, the Milgauss GV would be at the top of the list.

Not a new watch (as I've only just seen this post), but when I got medically retired from the Fire & Rescue Service because of injury early 2016, I bought an Omega X33 Skywalker.

I have Seiko mini turtle details is here...!
This watch shape is nicknamed by Seiko fans as a 'turtle' – its silhouette, side view and watch case back resemble a turtle with its curved comfortable shell. To divers, sea turtles are symbols of good fortune. This is the diver's watch that, just like the sea turtle, is loved by many diving enthusiasts.

I usually buy watched from guess. They are not that expensive.
 
I have a Seiko 5, and I really like it. It's reliable, has a classic look, and isn't expensive. The automatic movement is cool, and it's been very tough. I wear it every day, and it works for both casual and dressy events.

Recently, I found a replica Rolex for sale and decided to buy it for fun. It was a Submariner model, and I paid $138 for it. The quality was surprisingly good for the price, and it looked almost like the real thing

I want to buy a Rolex but never thought of replicas. Are they that qualitative?
 
I currently have a replica Rolex Submariner, and I have to say, it’s surprisingly good. I bought it from Replica24 for a reasonable price, and it looks almost identical to the real thing. The craftsmanship is impressive, and it has a solid weight and feel to it.

If you’re considering a Rolex but aren’t ready to spend a lot, replicas can be a great alternative. They offer the luxury look without the hefty price tag. My experience with Replica24 has been positive; the watch is durable and keeps accurate time.
