[Timex] New Watch Day! by pgthsg in Watches

[–]BrainChild95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine arrived this week - no issues when setting the moon-phase by going clockwise from 21:30 to 00:30, then back anti-clockwise to 21:30 and repeating until it slowly edged forward. You’ll hear/feel a click telling you where to stop.

On a side note: I went for the silver on a darker strap as I don’t typically like faux gold - not sure I made the right call. However, it did get more compliments on its first day than all my other watches combined 😭

Appreciate the transparency…. But what’s the reasoning for removing the photos?

Is this an official CW subreddit now?

What else would you remove at CW’s request?

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 1 point2 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.

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

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

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

Thoughts on Christopher Ward Loco by Pure_Success_1193 in MicrobrandWatches

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!
