I mean I get it, I really do. It’s a cool looking watch. And I like the idea of taking on the people that are using their design ethos to cash in. But a manual winding Seagull movement is hardly interesting or worth bothering with. It comes down to a pretty watch with cheap workings. Thanks guys, nice looking thing, nice idea but no thanks.

A friend of mine collects antique guns from the 1800s. They’re obsolete and can’t be shot anymore but are interesting from an engineering and historical perspective.
Anyway he bought this one with no sights on it. With original sights being pretty rare he asked if I could make something that would look reasonable on display.
Well after looking through my scrap bin for some suitable metal, and a hunt through the Golden Virginia tins for some screws and fittings, something took shape. Quite pleased with the result.

So does anyone here contribute to Trip Advisor?
I did for the first time ever this week after a few days away and a pretty bad experience eating out.
I must admit to feeling a bit guilty about leaving a negative review but feel it was honest and reflected our experience honestly.

So if you hide them away in the safe and only take them out for photos this isn’t the thread for you.

Wearing on rotation is fine, as long as they actually go out in the wide world.

So what do we actually wear?
I’ll start off with this one. Sees a lot of wear because I still think it’s a great looking watch.

Getting a new car and wondering how people transport man’s best friend when in the car.
Up until now our spaniel has always gone in the boot but I’m wondering if he’d be safer in the rear seat area.
Appreciate peoples views and experiences. Thing is how do we make it safe/comfortable?
Don’t mind buying something to do it but would be nice to hear what people use.

Thinking of buying the Airking next. As a non date grab and go it seems like a reasonable option. Will still probably try and get a non date Sub as well but in the meantime I think it’s an option.

Anyone got one, anyone going to get one? What are your views on it?

What a load of old carp. As a fan of Ridley Scott this was a disappointment to say the least. Rambling and ridiculous with CGI beasts.
