Completely understand, but this is not a Rolex situation, just me being impatient and wanting to make sure I get my hands on it as soon as it’s available, otherwise, not being close to the AD, it’ll just keep disappearing onto someone else’s wrist every time it comes into store. 👍

I’ve got to admit, I often find myself squinting at the dials nowadays. I suffer it though. I’m on the fence about thickness of watches as well, as I like them to fit nicely under my sleeve, but I like to feel some heft in the watch. It’s interesting how varied everyone’s tastes are and what aspects matter most to different people.

My Panda dial Chrono is 41mm and I love it, but I have found as I’ve got older I prefer the smaller dial, ideally 39mm. I have three Panerai’s that I used to love wearing, but they barely get any wrist time anymore.

Yes, although I love my standard panda Chrono, just wish it had the T-fit clasp. It’s either too big or too small depending on how much I ate during the week! 😂

I know, worrying. I expected Tudor to catch my eye. It’s been the same for the past three years. Can’t afford for there to be anything else I like! 😂

Lovely watch. Well done!

commented on Swatch Blancpain ·

Yes, I wouldn’t have done that either! 😂

Help needed

I’m in possession of a CW Sealander 63 GMT and a CW Twelve. Only one will make the cut, which? I’m leaning one way then the other. Thoughts please.
