Some really nice watch’s on here! I have a couple but nothing as special as some!

I have …

Citizen Skyhawk Red Arrow Titanium
Elliot Brown Canford
Bremont Solo 43

Oh and an Apple Watch but I doubt that’s counts :-D

They're solidly built and I really liked the triptic case design (3-layer case design) but ultimately, for me personally, I kind of felt like I was paying a premium price for a watch brand that lacked the heritage of say Omega or Breitling.

Head said "you don't need another watch!"

Heart (and wife said) "go for it"!

Heart won. Looking at a 12 month wait. Something to look forward to.

My brother in law has just got one of those....lovely watch.

Doubt you will need to wait 12 months however....my local dealer offered me one a couple of weeks ago, although these are 2021 releases so in demand...!

Very nice. Agreed you probably won't wait 12 months. My 12 month wait for a Black Bay 58 turned out to be more like 8-10 weeks before one became available to me from a local AD.

Also an excuse to post another photo;

Only Tudor i know thats a 12 month wait is the Limited Harrods edition. Green bezel like a Kermit but a nicer green imo...12mths from Harrods anyway. quicker on Grey for silly mark up

Totally agree. Bet watch arrives in a couple of months.

Love my BB58. Developing a few Tudor's in the family...along with Pelagos and BB S&G.

Chisholm Hunter. He said demand is high. But I bet it comes a lot earlier. In no rush, so happy to wait.

The blue BB58 only took a couple of months to settle down so hopefully your wait isn't too bad

I quite like the one you've picked, far better than their previous chrono offerings

Guys, you may remember me from such posts as 'I'm a lucky bas*ard and the wife is getting me a watch... which should I choose?!' swiftly followed by the classic 'being cheated on...' thread. Beautiful tale all in all...

Suffice to say I haven't worn the watch much since I found out of said cheating, and would rather it find a new home and I begin my watch odyssey with something else in the future.
So, my Breitling '806' 1959 Re-edition is up for sale. It's on Chrono24 but of course if you, or someone you know, would rather do a deal away from the site then that's fine too.

Link on Chrono24 - https://www.chrono24.co.uk/breitling...id19007816.htm
Link on Breitling site - https://www.breitling.com/gb-en/watc...n/AB0910371B1/

Chrono24 says £5.8k which is in-line and competitive to the watches on there, but honestly give me thoughts on what you'd want to pay and I'd be up for the discussion. I also don't mind 'delivering' the watch if relatively local to me here in the SE of England to save on postage & insurance.

Cheers all!

Was tempted with one of these myself, but not at a 12 month wait. Omega Speedmaster Racing is my alternative but quite a bit more expensive.
