Currently use an old Omega seamaster, loses about 5 minutes a day! So just bought a new Seiko 'Presage', not sure I'll like it though, as I like the old style watch - smallish and slim, but these presages look nice from photos anyway, and at 37.5 mm aren't too big. Then discovered something called Grand Seiko, some really nice retro pieces there, but once again, prefer the one's for the Jap market, smaller I think - 35mm, not cheap though. https://www.jurawatches.co.uk/collec...-mens-srpe41j1
Maybe the Invictas, no bugger’ll want them when I pop me clogs.Quote:

Similar hands to a Grand S...
nice watch Sir.
Birthday in February,
treating myself to a Hamilton Ventura in black.
The “Elvis” watch.
Something a bit different...
Good enough for “Blue Hawaii”, good enough for me...
Not bad for 200 bucks or soQuote:

A few variants of it, probably a black dial with stainless bracelet
Has that 1970’s mantelpiece clock quality about it. :)
This one takes my fancy..

Found this in my wardrobe drawer, been there since about 1970 when my uncle gave it to me. Never really used it as at the time it looked old fashioned to me. It still works, kept good time over the last day since I got it out.
Appears to be a better watch than I thought.
Apologies, terrible photo. Watch looks better than this.
