    Bit late with this post James. Your timekeeping is shocking

    I now have four watches - a snide Omega Seamaster (a Turkish 'genuine fake' that no longer works), a Mickey Mouse watch (meant for a kid and strap is too small for me), a Seiko solar watch that Anita got me last week, and a smart watch she got me a couple of Christmases ago (which I will get round to wearing one day). Trouble is the watch and the charger are in different parts of the house, so sometimes I find the watch in a drawer and think "Ooh, I really should look for the charger for that", and sometimes I find the charger and think "Ooh I really should look for the watch for that I'm sure when they eventually come together it'll be very nice.

    Quite an impressive collection I'm sure you'll agree.

    Yes it's the one I pictured recently

    We went to Bury last week, which was the nearest branch of F. Hinds, which advertised the watch at £154, the cheapest I found. But the bloke in the shop informed us "We've lost Seiko", by which I assumed they meant they no longer sell them, rather than they've put them down somewhere and can't remember where. Oh well, there was a H. Samuel close by, but the same watch was priced at £220.

    We went in anyway to have a proper look. I think the salesman was determined not to lose a sale, and told us they'll match any genuine price elsewhere. No problem, Anita showed him F. Hinds' website on her phone, and so we got it at that lower price. Result! Makes me wonder how much mark up they have on these things.

    Look forward to seeing some "guess where I am" pics on your other thread Roy, unless you've already told us elsewhere.

    Both companies were set up by same bloke. Tudor made/make? more affordable watches using ready made movements.
