I'm on a roll so far this year

Broadarrow PRS 11 incoming

Sellers pic for now.

This will put me up to 32 watches :shrug: although I do have a G-Shock for sale.

Am I taking crazy pills? Is that a CWC?
Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?

Same case, different movement I believe and of course slightly different dial.

Well congrats. I like it, but damn, it looks just like it to me, but I do NOT have a discerning eye.

I've now got one of these incoming

BNIB from an Australian AD at a huge discount from the UK price.

I will have to wait until July to get my hands on it though, as my Sister-in-Law will bring it over to the UK for me.

Well the opportunity arose to grab a true grail of mine, so I've just taken possession of this beauty.

Sellers (rather good) pics for now.

The quality of this piece, especially the bracelet is just superb.

I'm very chuffed.

Awesome, congrats. Definitely a favorite of mine (the reason I have two of them in different colors). While the 23mm lugs are annoying, you can also change the look and feel of it fairly easily with a canvas strap or even a 24mm isofrane, which is my preferred strap.

One of these arrived over the weekend from Timefactors

Image

I already have an 18A but the new PRS18Q COSC was too much watch for the money to resist.

I've also done a deal on this today

Image

Image

A lovely BLUMO with a domed sapphire crystal.

Anyone know a good divorce lawyer as I might need one soon at this rate :oops: :oops:

^ I noticed someone posted the 18Q COSC in WUS too. I’m going to order one tomorrow. It’s a solid beater for the money.
