Seiko Sportura is a very nice watch, not cheap at all. I have one of the current Seiko Chronographs as well.

i looked all over eBay and the fossil site...can't find it.......

Fossil FS4157 Bentley Watch - Google Search

I win at google.

thanks, i just found it myself with Frost teasing me about it


there's some on ebay...not bad of a price

I really like the face, but the band is a bit too ostentatious for my tastes (not that a band couldn't be changed).

i would change the band...that's my plan

Weekend Wristcheck
 

I don't know if this has ever been done on this forum, and I know its a little early. So I'll start off with mine...

anyone can start the Weekend Wristcheck...

http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n...r/IMG_0075.jpg

I'm confused

bout what?

its a thread that is done in forums every weekend, ppl post pics of there timepiece that they chose to wear...enthusiast based I guess...

wat

wat - Slang. Indicates confusion or a need for clarification. Statement/question.

I know, its unusual...those who own nice timepieces will understand...being a member of a few timepiece forums we do this every weekend in them...

just thought there may be a few here that appreciate nice watches...as all of you appreciate nice automobiles, right?

For the last 4 weekends.

nice omega! lets see it on the wrist:tup:

Here's a thread I think the OP will enjoy:

http://www.the370z.com/lounge-off-to...tch-whore.html

(I knew there was a similar thread around here....took me awhile to find it)

I love watches, they are my weakness. I have a nice collection of Tags, Omegas, Panerai, IWC, Oakley, and others. I refuse to spend more than $30 on a pair of jeans or shorts but I've dropped $9k on a watch lol.

somehow panerai is loosing it's appeal to me. my watch to own for sure is the omega speedmaster 125 -

http://nakahiro.parfait.ne.jp/image/.../omega125.jpeg

it's a HUGE and heavy watch. without the crown, it's about 42mm and with the crown its almost 45mm. and the weight with the metal bracelet is 183g. it's been stated that only 2000 where made.

the look of the watch was that appealing to me at first, but i think it grew on me. and after i read about the history of the watch, it just made this watch the one watch that i need to have.

that is a watch that is going to take me some time because i would have to drop around 2.5k for the watch, most likely it's got some wear and tear and dings and dents so i would most definitely spend about another 1k for restoration by sending it to omega.


so my next watch in the near future is probably going to be the Seiko SBDQ001.

diameter 40mm
thickness12.8mm
weight 94g

nice size and nice weight. and not too bad of a price.

What IWC timepiece do you have? Sir you seem like you ball in watches and clearly have good taste, so the next question is do you have an AP or plan on getting one? What Pams do you have?

Pams have become more mainstream now but something about them is just classic. I have become a huge fan of Bell & Ross watches as of late, you can see the one in one of my earlier posts. Another one that has grown on me are Uboats. Yes after you're done wearing it for the day you can take it off and hang it on your wall, but it's just something about them.

good thread, seen it done many times before as well.

Also OP like the new av pic, do you still have the Mach also?

i think for me, the panerais were every cool when i first started to get interested about watches. but i guess after all the readings and photos of other watches, my tastes have changed. but yes, they are one of the classics, well at least i too consider them as a classic design.

i love g-shocks and the following is what i have -

G-Shock GW-M5600BC-1

http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/p...1/IMG_1905.jpg

G Shock DW5600FS-3JF aka Hero G - the g shock that is so ordinary yet hard to find.

http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/p...F/IMG_1902.jpg

G-Shock GW9200-1 aka Riseman

http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/p...n/IMG_1877.jpg

watches to me is about practicality and that's what i love about the G.

I know so many people who swear by the G-Shock watches.

Thanks, the Mach1 belongs to my older brother now :) I was bumbed to see her go. However I feel good that shes in very capable hands, so when ever I visit them I'll still be able to see ole girl too:tup:

That's good, man. I wish I could track down my old '03 GT to spend some quality time with it again!

IWC is the Pilot, it is my only leather strap watch. Well Igot my first watch almost 10 years ago so I have been building a nice collection. I have the watches I wear everyday and I rarely wear my IWC since I am not a leatherband type of guy.

Hmm, I think I'll buy me a nice lambo before I get an AP watch :p.

I have the PAM296, I saw it in NY and fellin love with it. I wish it didn't have the cyclops but the gun metal is what sold me.

Nice I really like the big pilots, also the Portuguese. You can get an AP in the 20's vs. a 200 lambo lol. But I know what you mean those and Patek's are incredible and always glorious to see.

I love watches. Here are some of mine.

My favorite is my Panerai. It's easy to switch straps which makes it versatile.

My Rolex GMT is a classic.

http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...a/DSC_0023.jpg

Breitling Crosswind. Breitling makes a great watch for the money.

http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...a/DSC_0031.jpg

Tag Monaco, Limited Edition Steve McQueen 75th Birthday watch. I don't like Tags, but this one was pretty unique and I got a great deal on it.

http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...a/DSC_0025.jpg

I also have a 53mm U-Boat Left Hook, but I don't have a pic right now. I rarely wear that one. It is almost too big. It's about the size of the clock Flavor Flav wears around his neck.

I'm a seiko whore.

Limited edition chronograph - 1000 pieces #572
Black Monster diver
Titanium Samurai - blue face SBD003 (very rare)

Cheers

Haha I agree I like the U Boats but in one my earlier post I had said once your done wearing it on your wrist you can put it back up on the wall lol. Nice collection btw. Does your Pam have the exhibition back casing?

No, it's fully automatic. The exhibition back only comes with the daily winders.

Ah good point forgot about that.

I love the exhibition backs...

heres a few of my sea vulture reserve

it houses a swiss eta 2894-2 37 jewel automatic movement

oh man, love those watches.

i guess now you need is a sumo to complete your collection?

Hmmm - I am left-handed and wear a watch on my right wrist, so because those 'analogue style' watches have the 'winder' knob on the right I would never buy one (totally the wrong way round for me).

I live on a planet designed for right handers - but don't get me started on that one :tiphat:

lol i'm a right handed person that wears watches on my right wrist. somehow i don't like it on my left.

Here is my unrestored classic and it runs great.

Honestly one of the few Omega's I like. You seem to have quite a solid collection. Do you have a pic with all of them together? They always look so awesome when it's just a bunch of time pieces together.
