It is time for a wristshot

My other pride and joy (other than the GRY) is my Citizen Eco-Drive Navihawk, that I got for my 40th birthday many moons ago, and still love it.

Christopher Ward watches were mentioned on the GR86 watch thread?

Some of my old CW's, before I got fed up of the sales, price increases, problems, customer service and more sales - I see they have one today!

That's quite the CW collection. What problems have you had with them?

IWC is the daily, or was. It went in for IWC service 15 months back (£600) and since then its failed 3 times.

Its back with IWC to sort why its not winding via the automatic movement ☹️

I stopped buying from them about 18 months ago but, recently started to browse their website again. The result is that my latest CW addition arrived today - A 40mm ‘The Twelve’ on an integrated SS bracelet, which this afternoon I swapped out for the rubber. It fits the wife too, so I may have to share it 🤨.

Very Vacheron-esque.

And good move re. having it fit the wife - keeps her away from the Rolex 😉

I do love a Seiko, they're a good, strong, tool watch with an air of 'fashion' when they need to be. The 'Astron' range are lovely but, the problem is they do absolutely everything, so really you wouldn't need another watch ... Don't tell the missus! 🤫
 
Sat in the Toyota dealership waiting for my year 1 service to be completed. Done a paltry 3,700 miles in its first year. Found this thread so a quick contribution

Also just had the video report. 5.5mm of tread on the front and 6mm on the rear. Surprised the report didn’t say must try harder.
 
Gentlemen, it is with great pleasure to inform you that I have just placed an order for a Grand Seiko. To keep up the excitement, I won't tell you what it turned out to be yet 😝

The watch will replace my current Seiko Astron SSJ003J1 and we will be staying in blue territory - that much I can reveal 💙

Replace or accompany? If you are anything like the rest of us horological hoarders it’s almost impossible to part company with a timepiece…
