I found a thread this morning that I wanted to follow but that option wasn’t there. Why would they delete this? Please, bring it back!

I just went to the Christopher Ward website to take a look at the new C12. I’ve been a fan of CW for some years having owned one for a while. I sold it because they lost it luster for me but it was nothing wrong about the watch itself, it was very well made.

Glycine Airman w/ Collectors Kit!
I bought this lovely watch about 4 yrs ago and have enjoyed it every time I strapped it on. It’s really hard to part with it, I get attached to them after a while, but there’s a new one calling and this one needs to go (I’ve…
HELP! I’m screwed.
I’ve been trying to take some links out of the screw type bracelet but the screws come out a few turns then jam. No matter how hard I turn the screwdriver (how hard can you really turn a jewelers screwdriver?), they won’t budge. Put some WD40 on them, doesn’t seem to help. I’ve tried it on two screws and the same thing heppened both times.

What are the odds?
Recently, while gazing at my collection, it occurred to me, “What are the odds that anyone else in the world has the same collection?” I did a quick mental calculation (Engineers do that, we’re really that sick.) thinking about how many watches are there out there in the budget amount I’m comfortable spending on a watch which is less that $2000 (so far anyway) but includes second hand. That’s a lot of watches, probably in the hundred-thousands if not millions. The more common ones, the…

I’ve become interested in this watch, it’s a beauty, especially at this price. But, I have a concern. It’s 41mm which is larger than I normally wear in a 3-hander. 37 – 38 is my sweet spot. I do have tool watches, a dive watch and a chronograph, that are 42mm, but I’m ok with those kinds of watches at that size. I could pull off 41mm if I wanted to, but my concern is that the white dial and narrow bezel will make it wear much bigger, more like 43mm…
Show me your enamel dial watches
I was hoping to buy a Visitor Linden Snowfall but found out that they no longer make this watch. I’ve decided to look for an enamel-dial watch, which I’ve swooned over for a while but never seriously considered purchasing.
Please only show wristwatches costing <$1200 either new or on the secondary market. I should add that I’m a sucker for thermally blued hands, so that would make a watch even more attractive.
To be clear, I’m not looking to buy yet, just want to see what’s out there in my…
