LesterRam Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 I am a fan of omega, I have a old seamaster 1315 cal. its the first quartz movement but I have spent a bit on repair bills without actually having the watch repaired, I have sent it off 3 times now and they cannot find the parts for the repair, its a lovely watch, I think it was notorious for reliability, very unlike omega Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I like the 90s Tag watches, my mate bought a drawer of broken watches on a car boot that had 3 dirty Tags at the bottom! He's done a cracking job, ones got a blue face and worth quite a bit. Got a couple of 80s Ellesse ones as well, not many knocking about. I bought the carbon F1, there's a picture in the the old thread. My work one is the Casio FW-91, stunning watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesterRam Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 the worst watch I have is a patek philippe, the frigging thing works perfectly well until you wear it, it's been in for service 4 times and still they cannot rectify the problem, I have had a tag professional with a medium face (they call them that if you have small wrists like me ) and it never missed a beat, I didn't like the original strap though, it kept pinching my arm hair lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesterRam Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 the one I wear when I go out in is a sekonda or pulsar, both my Dad's who I lost last year so reminds me of him. he like the sekonda because he always harped on about keeping jobs in Leicester and the pulsar never missed a beat in over the 25 years he owned it.

LesterRam Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 You own a Patek Philippe ? One would think they can service it if you send it to Patek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cisse Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 bloody hell mate, it would cost the value of the watch I sent it to those online repair shops, its a calatrava so its not worth sending back to the manufacturer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Mills Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Watches are something I'm trying to get into. I only have 2 and they're nothing special, I have a Seiko 50m Titanium and a Hugo Boss watch, not sure which model but the picture is here. My favourite at the minute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
