Well that is really impressive and certainly something worth doing. I have been thinking about doing a build project although I have never even opened a watch so I always imagine the second I do lots of gears and springs will go over where 🤣

But given how well yours looks and what can be achieved on a modest budget, I think it's worth taking a punt as that's one hell of a watch and what a great little project

commented on What determines your next watch Purchase?? ·

No rhyme or reason to my madness.... I just wait till the watching collecting stars align. Which is when I get that itch and one just looks and feels right, its available and I have the funds just lying around and there is an major accomplishment or life event that justifies treating myself to it.

If it wasn't for all those things having to align, I have a very big room with lots of full watch boxes 🤣

Looks great, out of curiosity how much did it cost to build and what are the specs? (Asking for a friend 🤣)

commented on Confused on Nomos club 36mm sizing ·

I'm not a fan, the gap between the stap and the case is too big for me. Never said that about a watch before but it just doesn't do it for because of it

commented on Decisions, decisions, decisions.... ·

This was a really difficult one for me, but I thought the Tudor just edged it (and I don't like Tudors and I do love GS).

However, I'm changing my vote back to the GS now having seen just how bloody thick that BB is!

Love the farer and Oris,.lovely watches. The bronze is the thing outside my comfort zone. I don't think I'd like the way it ages 🤣

commented on Thinking of swapping ·

Do it, the GS looks much better, you have a longing for it. Go for it.

Speedy is iconic, doesn't mean it's better for you.

Speedy may hold it's value better however, I have baught a watch as an investment they are something that is meant to make you feel good. If the GS does that for you then why the hell not.

Hope you enjoy the new watch!
