Some absolute beauties there guys, super cool 8)

Here are my 2, a Tag Aquaracer which is my daily from about 2004/5 can't remember tbh :D and a 1953 refurbed Omega that I bought last year for my 50th from an antique watch company in Cornwall, I only wear it a couple of times a month, my theory is its been going for 63 years so it'll see me out and I can leave it to my son when it's time to leave this mortal coil :D

If that's not a redial, the Omega is in stunning condition for its age :thumbsup: I love these watches, but they wear absolutely tiny on my wrist.

Thanks enzed4 :thumbsup: I'm pretty sure it hasn't had a redial but it has had a new dial window :thumbsup:

Its not just Omega I buy & sell. I also deal in Rolex and other high end brands but Speedmasters is my passion.
Thought I recognised your username, from omegaforums. (Mine is Muttley. Low post count as I have spent years and thousands of posts on WTF, where I was a mod with ulackfocus, until the site got ruined. Haven't spent much time at omegaforums, as I'm scared I'll get hooked (again) and start spending too much :oops: )

Yes very easily hooked when it comes to watches... Just so much choice in terms of brands, styles, cost etc.

I started in 2010... I won't say how many I own now but put it this way... I would be enough to own 3 ///M Coupes!

Love them, hoping to get one of these soon

The Speedy "Racing' reduced case size of 40mm as apposed to the 42mm Moonwatch. I used to own one but sold it ages ago.

I can also help you with one of those that will be new at a decent discount from a UK AD.

Drop me a message if your interested.

I'm leaning towards a TinTin Speedmaster, but not sure if prices have gone stupid. Are they hard to come by? Maybe I should just ask this on omegaforums?...
 
Latest addition to my collection has arrived this morning, I actually wasn't in the market for another watch but got offered it at a really good price and couldn't help myself

Tudor Heritage Chrono Grey

Also came with a lovely nato, but the bracelet is so comfy I don't think I'll be swapping any time soon

Welcome to the Tudor club! :thumbsup:

Nice choice as well, so much better than the blue/orange version.
 
That does look great :) the quirky looking hour marker on some of their other models doesn't do it for me but that looks swell :thumbsup:

Very nice, of course the black faced versions are worth more ! :oops:

What you need now is a date magnifier added and it would look like the original Monte Carlo .

Was actually planning on doing that before I got the watch but as soon as I tried it on I knew I wouldn't be changing it.

I was expecting to like this watch but I also knew I got it at a price I could easily flip it if I didn't bond with it.... Well after a day on the wrist its already my favourite watch, even knocking the speedmaster that I was chasing for months off the top spot

I've had 3 of these , all of which I added a magnifier too . At my age I need all the help I can get to see the date ! Lovely watch, great retro look with a decent bracelet . Some are put off by the piggy back module for the Chrono, but it's never bothered me . Tudor is one of my favourite brands at present , with affordable decent watches in the range , I'm just searching for my 4th pelagos ( another date magnifier for this ) as we speak . Enjoy your watch .
 
Picked up this nice little Rolex Oysterdate last week off TZ it dates from 1956 the wife liked it and its her birth year. Gents watches were so small (30mm) way back then, this is now a perfect ladies size hence the wifes love for it. The honeycombe dial and Roulete date wheel (black & red alternate days) are quite rare, it also has the 1215 manual movement which is very robust, and by monitering the time keeping and power reserve after a recent service, Rolex quality is only to be admired.






 
I've been spending too much on watches this last month, but just arrived on my desk.....

My first Tudor

IMG-20160913-WA0026_zpsfwaeehwi.jpeg


Yep I said first... I actually bought this one just over a month ago, but it has been with my watchmaker having a bit of work done, full service case polish and a dial swap.. When I picked this up it had a yellow dial, but found this lovely dial on ebay which I think is a massive improvement to the watch from the yellow dial it left the factory with
