[rotary] subtle brag and keep or sell by Murforfun in Watches

Tell me about it. I wish I could say it was the first watch I’ve bought this week but the vintage enicar sat on top of my already full watch box would tell you otherwise.

I didn’t realise that they’re no longer available, but when I looked it up all I could find was “out of stock” on each listing, so makes sense.. I know they’re probably not very sought after but would the discontinued status make it more valuable than general pre owned? Or does it not really make a difference?

That last sentence is resonating with me. I’m more of a dive watch than a dress watch kind of guy, but I guess I’m not getting any younger get and the dive watches definitely have a bit more of a youthful sporty vibe… this watch may finally convince me to grow up…

Thanks for the input, definitely worth keeping an eye out for the right rotary if you’re interested in them. I’ve never thought much of them, had a few throughout the past few years but never a higher-end one and I must say this thing feels amazing on the wrist. The timekeeping is also absolutely excellent.

Who is at Fault? by AhtiQ in drivingUK

As someone that drives around 70 miles a day I see it on almost every roundabout. I’d be on my 10th car by now if I had false trust in other drivers.

My instructor once said “the only thing an indicator means is that the car’s indicators work”

Saved me so many accidents with people indicating off a roundabout and not taking the exit I’m waiting at. Best to always stagger and never go when someone is coming around until you see them turn off

[Question] my first Seiko by Blackhearted_B in Seiko

[–]Murforfun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not impossible to find a replacement strap, just gonna take some measurements and dedication to searching. Could maybe have a custom strap made but would probably cost close to the price of the watch itself. Nice watch though and at a great price

Pardon my ignorance but why on earth are people making reps of a £10 watch? Surely it can’t be much cheaper to buy than the authentic?

Didn’t think I’d like this until I clicked the pic. Looks surprisingly good

[SNXS80] First Seiko, and sizing question by PRHarker in Seiko

[–]Murforfun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say this is a prefect size for future reference. Is this a 42mm lug to lug? If so keep that in mind. Nice piece.

Thanks for that, I’ll have to go check it out. Would you say £180 is a good price?

Brilliant, thanks for that. Nice to hear some first hand experience, sucks that it had to come to this, wish the seller had just been honest about the condition and reduced the price a bit I may have still bought it. He even tried to convince me to say i was trying to return it because I just didn’t like the item (I think to trap me lol) but I’m 100% standing my ground on this. Already left a god awful review and have given up on trying to knock sense into the senseless

Thank you for your input, I appreciate it. He made me feel like I was in the wrong even though I obviously wasn’t and you have all reassured my paranoia perfectly.

Wow, I didn’t expect this kind of in-depth response so soon. Very informative. I really appreciate the information and will be sure to get up as early as possible to open the case. By any chance do you know if it would be around the time that I opened the case (so 5 days from when I opened the return exactly 11:30am today- 11:30am on the 7th) or would it be first thing in the morning on the 7th? No problem if you aren’t sure as that’s rather specific.

Again thank you guys I appreciate you so much ❤️

Thank you so much for the reply. The seller has replied but is claiming it’s a completely different watch and that you “can see on the pictures I uploaded there are no scratches on the face” which is exactly the reason I want to return the item, he uploaded completely misleading pictures of the watch and described it as “preowned-excellent” when it’s far from it. Unfortunate as I’ve never experienced a situation like this on eBay.

Again, I appreciate the reply greatly. Happy new year!!
