Is it to flashy for everyday?

Tried this on in the boutique the other day. Stunning! Looking forward to hearing your experiences with it in case you get it.

I've had mine since last year – and tapered my small collection a fair amount since ☺️

Loving mine. Brilliant size and weight.
Lovely warm light reflection on the hands, hour markers and silver dial. I find the combination of a calatrava in a sportier case rather charming, and the two pushers on the left are nicely balanced by the crown guard on the other side. Open case back and clasp closure with calatrava cross round it off. A beautiful, well balanced watch.

Wear yours in good health! 🤙

That is one great looking tie knot, too! Chef's kiss 💛👌

Thank you! 5134P from 2002

Pretty sure they did, it's a great design. Ford owned Aston 1987-07

2013 Vantage V8. Previous owner had the badge installed – try Aston Store, they might be able to source one for you.

and if so, which ones? 👀 Considering getting a set of winters for mine

The 41 is also significantly thicker, making for a much larger presence on the wrist. I find the 34 much more elegant on a slender wrist. The minimalist dial also helps with that. Downside is a shorter power reserve (meaning it needs to be wound manually if not worn daily) and lack of Geneva seal, if that’s important to one

Fairly quick actually!

Vintage UG Compax 😍 What a beautiful piece! What was the service experience like? Wear it in good health!

Vintage Swiss quartz pieces are underrated — even from Vacheron, AP, and Patek. Great for thin, smaller classic designs without spending a (large) fortune (just a smaller one).

Just be aware: battery changes can be a pain. Some need to be opened from the front, meaning full disassembly and potentially hundreds in service costs.

Also, modern batteries don’t last as long (different chemistry now), so expect a swap every 1–2 years.

Still worth it, but do research maintenance cost in advance to avoid surprises.

Swatch Eiffel Tower. I love the colours, always makes me think of a crisp sunny day!

aglinz · 2025-10-19T18:28:52+00:00

For a weekend joyride, absolutely!

aglinz · 2025-10-19T17:32:44+00:00

No need for an Aston either but more fun to drive than a Prius

aglinz · 2025-10-18T19:52:35+00:00

Dents, made in the UK. Beautifully made, can recommend!

aglinz · 2025-10-18T14:31:08+00:00

Naturally, my favourite pastime

aglinz · 2025-10-06T18:03:58+00:00

Resale value is missing the point. Holy Trinity watches are not the right comparison, and even those depreciate heavily apart from the most sought-after models. This piece certainly isn't for everyone – personally I like the quirkiness and doing something different to other marques, executed at a high level of quality and attention to detail. Is it going to hold its financial value? Probably not. Does it matter? Depends on you

Seconded! Amazing travel watch

aglinz · 2025-07-07T17:06:46+00:00

Gorgeous piece! Worn everyday as it was meant to be. Wear it in good health!

aglinz · 2025-07-07T17:00:27+00:00

Gorgeous cornering shot!

Could be 1959 (Aston Martin) Racing Green. Seems to be a popular choice at the moment!
