Where is that thread about watches?

My cheap watch:

[Michel]

I've searched for it but I can't find it anywhere - can someone help?

[Michel]

I'm thinking of getting an old seamaster from 1960's 70's, does anyone have any advice?

The thing i like about them is their simplicity; I like simple watches.

[Michel]

Lots of watches here that I don't even recognise the name of!

I use the Casio F-91W, lightweight basic digital thing sold almost all over the world: the strap or battery tends to wear out long before the watch.

You mean this one, Sean? I have two of them, one for normal time the other for daylight saving time, saves me fiddling around with resetting them twice a year. At $12.00 each, I can afford the duplicate!

That oke, but you have different types.
What ever you buy, insist on papers, check the numbers, see to it that it is properly maintained and serviced, behold the wear of the watch, and get repair bills, to see what was wrong with it, if there ever was that is!
Don't buy on internet, unless you know your watches, the copies are near perfect, the papers also.
Go to a official dealer, that's the best advice I can give you.

That my dear Lis is no watch, that's a atrocity, and a insult to watchmaking. As a woman you should wear something befitting your beauty, and this is as ugly as can be.

Honey, I just want to know what time it is and this one tells me, accurately, simply and faithfully! -(I don't wear jewelry.)

Ach, mein Gott!
A woman should.
I have very strong notions about this.
A watch enhances beauty greatly, as earrings, or some simple diamond necklace.
But you are au natural huh?!

I am not too keen on Breitling watches, think they should rethink their design.
But I make a exception for the navitimer.
Are you willing to seperate yourself from the Omega, and could you quote a price?
What is the condition of this watch?

[Harry]

This is the watch I am presently wearing. For connoisseurs this looks like heaven.
I have the one in 18 carat gold.

O, boy this Omega is a beauty! I simply forgot about him, but the minute I saw it, I became very creedy.
Let me talk to your lovely wife!

Hi Uffe, yeah, something like that, thanks. My strap just broke actually so I've got to go & get another of the damn things. Nice plastic strap but designed to wear out.
