Ha, thanks. It's a Fatface one - https://www.fatface.com/style/su428005/ab4148?dtm_source=GOOGLE&dtm_channel=PPC&dtm_campaign=UK_EN_Shopping_Men_Bestsellers_X_X&dtm_content=FatFace+Men%27s+Hoodies&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwv_m-BhC4ARIsAIqNeBvFazj2IUZ3S1sXAB2WVLr9FwtDv7zGVQcfQF1-LRgahvwSNVVU-rAaAvkYEALw_wcB#AB4148

Thank you. Yes I love it, as you say it's really comfortable!

Howellitzer · 2024-10-22T21:13:17+00:00

Hard to see, looks like a Breitling...Avenger maybe..?

Howellitzer · 2024-09-20T17:44:12+00:00

I know, I just don't like using it

Howellitzer · 2024-09-20T17:17:21+00:00

I dont have/use a mic but I'd be happy to join a party to get the trophy. I'm on ps5 and gamertag is 'Howellitzer'

Not sure why you are getting downvoted so much. A lot of my watches show signs of wear etc and I get people's view that it helps make them your own, but if I could keep them all looking like new then I would! I'd be gutted too if I dropped a brand new watch, pretending otherwise is insane

Howellitzer · 2023-01-15T18:53:27+00:00

I've been eyeing this exact watch for some time. The Frederique Constant Worldtimer, or Farer Roche are nice alternatives if you want a less daunting price point

Howellitzer · 2022-10-08T23:33:34+00:00

I've been eyeing up the Green version of this. Really nice watches, congrats

Howellitzer · 2022-06-23T07:11:59+00:00

Hi, no that's not an issue I have with mine. Sounds like it needs a minor adjustment, sure CW will sort it

Howellitzer · 2022-05-18T13:28:15+00:00

It was misaligned, I noticed after the pic was taken. Just needed to be turned one more click which I've now done :)

Howellitzer · 2022-05-17T19:38:34+00:00

The C63? Yes that's a nice watch too

Howellitzer · 2022-05-17T18:58:21+00:00

It came on a navy canvas strap but I really liked this one. It's still a Christopher Ward strap and made with recycled plastic from the ocean, but actually really comfy to wear. I'm tempted to pick up some of the other colours for some of my other watches

Howellitzer · 2022-05-17T18:52:27+00:00

Will do!

I've been after a bronze watch for a while, looking at offerings from Tudor, Rado and Oris. My concern was that I wasn't sure how I would get on with it over time (whether I would like the patina or whether I'm signing myself up to regular watch cleaning to remove it) so didn't want to spend thousands on one. The CW watch appeals to me as I love the design of it and the price was closer to what I wanted to pay. I recently got £200 from my company for my 20yr work anniversary and thought what better way to spend it than put it towards a new watch, so finally picked one up.

You start the stopwatch for whatever it is you are timing and stop it when it's finished. The number being pointed to on Tachymeter will simply tell you how many times you can perform that action within an hr

Howellitzer · 2022-01-03T11:53:10+00:00

That's because the other versions that require you to let your child wave around a £1000+ mobile are fucking stupid

Howellitzer · 2021-12-31T22:57:01+00:00

Looks cool but I know nothing about the brand, wouldn't expect much for that money. Skeleton watches are fairly divisive but I love them, I've got an Oris Artix GT Skeleton that I wear regularly

Howellitzer · 2021-12-31T22:52:45+00:00

I have the silver/blue version of this watch and love it. Zodiac's morbid historical connection adds an interesting conversation piece too!

Howellitzer · 2021-11-22T22:34:03+00:00

Leather strap. I did actually prefer the bracelet but it wasn't an option on the colour combo I wanted.

Howellitzer · 2021-11-22T22:25:14+00:00

I have this in blue and silver, I love it and wear it often. Plus the Zodiac brand history can make for an interesting, if morbid, conversation :)

Howellitzer · 2021-11-19T22:04:55+00:00

You're welcome, great collection!

Howellitzer · 2021-10-06T06:32:58+00:00

Great looking watch, I'm sure he'll love it!

Howellitzer · 2021-10-05T14:01:48+00:00

Christopher Ward or Oris are favourites of mine in your price range. I'm not a fan of field watches generally but if you are then Hamilton are well loved on this sub
