There you go Roy - just sell off all those ugly sailing and diving chronometers, and stick to understated-looking dress watches.

James Bond wears one in Dr No. That's it really. Case closed.

Yep, had one of those, purchased in 1970 for £84. Had it serviced a couple of years ago for over £2K and gave it to my Son for his 40th. Trouble is, it's expensive to insure and he's limited to where he can wear it, for safety sake.
I now have a Seiko Diver's Kinetic, which is a lovely watch but I've given it a hard time.
