Sometimes I'll leave a gym beater on for a day or two by accident and then when I go back to a proper watch I love the feeling of having something substantial on my wrist, sort of reminds me that I am wearing something a bit special.

Agree, I really like titanium - have a ROO 44mm, big old lump but feels like a stainless Sub weight wise.

Nice to hear this positivity about titanium, my next purchase is going to be titanium and wasn’t sure if the lightness was going to be an issue / make it feel cheap

I feel like the case/lugs don’t flow/taper into the strap clean enough, making it look like a bulk on the wrist with a thin strap IMO.
Any reason why you’re not going for the circular case? Bar this being an anniversary re-issue.

Because I tried it on and it looks fantastic. Size is perfect and looks great on other straps but can't get on with the ladder bracket.

It's 37mm. Probably the best looking square-faced chrono for slender wrists.
Every watch enthusiast should have a square faced watch in their collection to mix it up a bit. I love it.

I like the look of that disco, I wanted to love the el primero and the defy skeleton etc as it was imo one of the few attainable skeleton watches from a respected swiss manufacturer.
I tried on so many different models on different occasions to convince myself I liked it, sadly it just didn't feel like I had something special on my wrist.

Sorry for the very newbie question.
Is is still worthwhile buying watches from abroad/airports?

Defintely think they produce some amazing dials.

finally bought the omega great white seamaster gmt last week after deliberating for over a year. Love it and the dial is hypnotic with the waves
