 I don't think my post came across how I meant it to. Sorry for the offence.

I've got two Tissot watches, one bought earlier this month that I'll wear for work and another I use less frequently  because I hate the thought of damaging it.

The reason I was asking about Ali express was really because I fancy adding watch or two more without spending too much that I could throw on at times. 

It wasn't a case getting a watch to try and impress anyone, I genuinely could not care. If its chines shite I'll wait a bit and buy something else

I'll save my questions for elsewhere in the future.

Get yourself a superclone.

New watch time. U-Boat Dark Moon 

Unusual/original design, left hand drive as well, never seen anything like it, bit of a marmite watch, don't know if I love it or hate it, good though.

Thank you.

Something a little bit different, just back from a holiday in Crete, picked this up in one of the local shops there. Thought the wooden face was pretty unusual but thought it looked nice. Only €45, so not sure how long it will last, we’ll see!

I really like that.  Like you say, something a bit different.  A bit of art for your wrist.

As an aside, Rolex brought out a wooden dial Oysterquartz in the ‘80s and Tissot brought out what was apparently the first all wooden watch in the ‘90s.  Both these models are still going strong and currently for sale on Chrono24 so there’s every chance you could keep your watch running for many more years.

That looks really good, what's the price? (if you don't mind me asking)

Cheers.

Roughly about 2k once the import tax was paid (forgot about that little surprise until I got a text from the courier!)

 been a brand that’s caught my eye for last wee while, missed out on his last release which was a 10 minute window, the Kurono anniversary watches are lovely as are the 34mm ones that were released last year.

OK, that was a mistake. All but invisible in anything but bright light and the domed face was just asking to be scratched so sold it on (made my money back) and today bought this instead -

You should get watch face tattooed on top of your wrist tattoo, at least it'll be right twice a day..

Ed Sheeran thought about doing that, anybody see his watch collection vid with John Mayer? 'Piece Uniques' from both AP and Patek, mind blowing stuff.

Thank you.
