The watches thread

Kind of matches a DV with yellow calipers: https://timex.com/products/marlin-chronograph-tachymeter-40mm-leather-strap-watch-tw2w99100

That's a nice-looking watch! Especially for us DV with yellow caliper, guys!

That's awesome. Congrats. I know they only do a limited run of those. Any idea how many is being released?

Previous M.A.D watches were limited to 1,500. I haven't seen an official number for this one, but I've heard a range from 1,500 to 2,000.

Agreed…so much value for the money! Thank you!

I got a big watch surprise today! I've entered a few of the MB&F M.A.D. watch raffles without success, and I wasn't expecting to be drawn for the newest M.A.D.2 watch, but I got the news that I was selected! Does anyone here enter these raffles? I LOVE the new turntable-inspired design!

That’s amazing! Congrats! Love to hear about good people winning these raffles! What a special time piece with a great story!

Not that much of a fan of the Navitimer, but I wouldn't have second thoughts if they came out with a Lotus model.

If you want a Navitimer, look at Sinn. Exactly the same design, as they bought the rights of of Breitling a number of years ago, but they are a lot cheaper and just as good.

May I recommend “The League of Microbrands” on Facebook — keeps track of incredible watches that really give the top brands a run for their money. I’ve found some amazing watches through the group.

(That said, Christopher Ward is still regarded as a microbrand. Fantastic watches, but microbrand…?)

I have become smitten for Christopher Ward and hope to get one of their watches one day, but they are definitely past microbrand status.
That Aston-Breitling is interesting. My initial reaction was meh, but then I started looking at the details (as one should with watches) and I quite like it.

The Breitling titanium pieces don't feel... titanium. Hard to describe, but they only feel "slightly" lighter than their steel models.

I'm a fan of a titanium watch. Own 2 titanium Citizens (quartz chronograph and a mechanical), and currently awaiting the arrival of the Maurice Lacroix Aikon Chrono Titanium.

My Christopher Ward Bel Canto is made of titanium and is super light and comfortable to wear.

I almost got this exact one. I cancelled before arrival and someone got the spot.

This has been on my wrist most days recently.

I like that! I can't remember where I've seen this watch. Remind me of the manufacturer?

My collection throughout the years, each piece has its story and symbolic moments, from a pass down watch from my grandfather (Omega DeVille, first “real” watch (Longines), wedding watch (Tudor), “I’ve made it” / started a business celebration watch (Omega Speedmaster Sedna Gold), to the my favorite of all time and the most worn (Vacheron Overseas 4520V)

However, since our child was born, watch collection journey is pause for now. Maybe I’ll pick it another piece later on when there’s a significant moment that’s worth celebrating.

Cheers!!

Love the Vacheron and the gold Speedmaster. Two, pinnacle pieces for me.
