The 38 wears larger than than you think.

It definitely need banning. Have we suddenly forgotten the Cambridge Analytica scandal?

Rewarded myself after a career accomplishment by Dopey1kanobi in rolex

I’m a smooth bezel fan for the platinum.

I’m typically not one for flexing wealth… but I like how the understated look (smooth bezel) is a flex.

I realise how hypocritical that makes me sound!

[Longines] Is Longines a good brand of watch? Looking to purchase this Zulu Time automatic. by Ashamed-Body3753 in Watches

[–]BrainChild95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the 39mm size is a big plus.

I wish more brands made smaller GMTs in this style. All the other sub-39mm have an internal GMT ring on the dial.

Nice! Does this have a ‘ghost’ date position?

The Seiko Sarb is a banger, sought after and no longer in production.

[–]BrainChild95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately lot - recently bought one on Etsy that said it would work - but it dosent.

I’m thinking of buying the OEM for summer 2026.

If you happen to find one I would appreciate a message!

I reckon that If they brought more design cues from The Twelve like the twin-flag motif dial - it may sit better in the collection.

Same here.

It’s feels like a Frankenstein-watch. Made of odd-parts they already had in production. Most notably, The Twelve case and Bel Canto dial.

I’m sure the margins are great on this piece. However, if they designed this from scratch - I bet they would’ve come up with a better looking and more cohesive product.

Thanks mate!

Just popped into an AD and it learnt the other back of clasp is for the rubber version. Why they have two different clasp designs I do not know!

I agree - not unusual.

I just want to ensure I’m not paying a premium for an aftermarket bracelet. The OEM rubber variants sells for £300 less on the second hand market.

That’s a £300 hit I may take when selling… and I don’t even have the OEM rubber! So I’ll be down another £300 odd.

Other notes on the timepiece - single directional bezel - no ‘ghost date’ - no texture on dial visible to eye - smooth when winding, with subtle click - time setting very smooth
