That’s what I thought. Was sure Kev was mispronouncing the name. VE trying to rush out watches with out a Russian theme?🤔😃

Funny you should say that. My latest acquisition,a Seiko5 based explorer mod. Really is a nice little thing and dosen’t get in the way when working. Nothing wrong with smaller watches I don’t go over 42mm, plenty big enough😉

Also the Mathey Tissot Type 20 or as Kev calls it TypeXX used in WW1, there's me thinking it was a design commissioned for the French Airforce from the 50's. Might be wrong but weren't they still making wrist watches out of pocket watches, soldering on some lugs to pass a strap through at the...

On the tourbillon watches, can't see them being an investment peice any time soon. One (Chinese)went through a sales forum for around £350 if memory serves me right 😁 Nice enough thing at that money but a bit disappointing if you shelled out near on a grand for it.😲☹ I'll add don't think the...

I liked the way the "expert" kept saying Chronometer in stead of chronograph 🤣😂 on the S&E shows yesterday🤔 Yes they put a fixed tachymeter scale on a none chrono watch and a tunable tachymeter on a chrono😉yes these guys are masters of horological design and function 🤔

More malfunctioning examples to demonstrate, this time with Police watches with the drum movement. Both examples show random times, like 10.69🤔🙂 Mikey Mason couldn't adjust it to the right time but assures they're just samples and the watch you receive will be fine😂 Neil has said "All four...

At least they had "Chineese movement" and "metal case" stamped on the case back but they only turned them over to see, once while I watched😄

Yes, I saw this total nonsense 🤔😁 do they actually sell any of the Charmex watches, a waste of a good movement IMO😕 an ugly monstrosity, I guess some must like it. There seems to be a few of them for sale, if you have a quick look on the web but not for me at any price. That kind of money can...

Yes, sure I read, they think they will de able to rebuild it.

Can't see the Russian references and model names being a good selling point any longer🤔

Yes, never seen anything like it🤔 and why must Peter keep going on about a Bombay crystal. Your not going to put a cyclops on a Bombay crystal if such a thing ever existed. It's just a normal flat crystal, not a curved or dome crystal that he insts on calling Bombay😬

Ha ha, yet to see one with a full set of lined up digits 🤔🤭

Yes that stood out like a saw thumb🙂 even the wife noticed and she has no interest in all things horological 🤔

And I bet they're so excited, as they have been trying to get this brand for the last 3 years🤔 and they should have been at Basel😂🤭

Yes, can't beat a Chinese watch that's proud to be Chinese and doesn't has to pretend to be something else with a fake history 😉 must get a 1963 myself, classic traditional chronograph whats not to like 🙂

Beat me to it Hammy🤔🙂

And they've never seen a 24hr movement, you could have a fair collection of just 24hr watches😉

As if a non working display model would have the hands in that position, one obscuring the other 🤔

Ha ha, I like it!😉😂 I miss baby Fields 🤔🤫 have to suffer his dad on TJC with the Gamages (not that they be on for while). For spouting total horological claptrap🤭

They are an exclusive designer brand recognised "throughout the four corners of the world" for their quality fashion accessories, I'll have you know.😂🤔😉
