No dates on any BB58.

First impressions are very good and I'm impressed with how effortlessly it wears.

Welcome to the club. It’s a great daily wearer. Enjoy!

Can I ask who's using a watch winder in here? I'm thinking about one ti keep my automatics running without having to wind and set them when they run out of power reserve. I could rotate them but with 4 autos, 3 with a 40 ish hour reserve and one with a bit more, I fear my rotation might not be sufficient to keep them all going.

I could of course wear them more at home, but the kids love to pull and have at them because they're shiny and not theirs (is my assumption).

I am, therefore, debating using a winder and will happily take suggestions. I have so far looked at Wolf and Barrington winders but wondered what else might be out there that's been tried.

Thanks in advance.

I have 2 Wolf watch winders sitting doing nothing right now. My wife has one with her Rolex in it, hers is a Heritage collection one. I have the simple one with the Union Jack on it! Rotated both directions. When in use I keep to 6 hours a day!

Watch purchase number two the month came in today. Another "hard to get" piece: the Casio G Shock 2100-1AER "Casioak"

Please forgive the quick snap. I was on my way out as it arrived. I can get more or better pics if anyone is interested.

This piece has also come back into stock on the G Shock UK website for now.

Wonder if yours will come back the same.

Enjoy having it back!

Picked it up on Tuesday. Only had the receipt from Laings, no Tudor paperwork accompanying. Came back in an official Tudor pouch and Laings put my Apple watch in a Laings pouch to get it home

All seems to be working fine now, so far so good

I really like the look of that, I am looking at getting the right Seamaster but not in a great hurry. I wonder whether any discounts would be available on it.

Yep I have one, my Omega sits in it when I am wearing my Garmin. I can leave it in there and forget about it, wear it for an evening and then put it back in. Always wound up and protected in the box.

Have to say I do like this Breitling....also comes in a nice blue with a brown strap and black with rose gold...Not up up on Breitlings myself but sure looks nice imo..

Needless to say, the gold one was more expensive! It looks better on her wrist and the bracelet sections are smaller so fits her better.

Like cars...watches are a waste of money.....
