This is my 18k gold Richmond Weil inherited from my grandad. I'm not really sure how old it is.

Thanks everyone for the wide variety of selection. I really like the Casio Oceanus but the import cost is quite expensive. I also like the Casio garrison and Timex 36 mm.

It's a really stylish watch, I have had my eye on Farer for a long time. One of my favourite microbrands!

For me usually the size as I have small wrists and I like all my watches to have sapphire crystal. When I've been looking at quartz watches, I always find myself wondering why they never made it solar.

With my Boldr automatic I wear mostly when I am out in the garden or doing physical things where I don't mind getting scratches. I like the whole sustainability aspect of the watch and the price point was just right for me as I got it in a sale. What other watches do you have?

I do prefer single pass NATO straps to the one the watch came with. It matches really well with the watch and in my opinion gives it a sports vibe. Yes you are right, it definitely looks worse in the photos. It is a very different and unique time piece.
