@Dan Ferris I've never seen the Christopher Ward watches before, I've just been on the website to have a butchers, very nice looking kettles I must say.

@ianrauk thank you The C.Ward is a lovely looking piece for the money. I love Breitling, a few people said to not go with them for the 'bling' but i think the Colt is fantastic. Being COSC as well it keeps fantastic time. How do you find the metal strap? I went for the brown leather but i have considering buying the metal strap but i have quite small wrists and not sure if it would be to chunky.

@CarlP They have some great offers on. The forum favourite is the C60 which is a lot of watch for the money. They also do a great 60 day return service so i have ordered more than one before if i couldnt make my mind up and then they take the others back with no questions asked.

I much prefer metal straps for my watches and the one on my Brietling has held up very well for a 12 year old watch. It's still looks very nice with only a couple of scratches. Helped by the fact that it's not my day to day watch.

My wife has a Breitling Lady Wings with gold rider tabs and gold/stainless bracelet.

She also had a beautiful custom made padded black leather strap made by this outfit:

Quite expensive but absolutely spot on - she bought the clasp direct from Brietling (not cheap) and sent it off to them to incorporate into the strap. Great service.

I used to have a B1 which was lovely - if I could be bothered with pricey watches anymore the Avenger Blackbird would be on my shortlist for sure:

I like functional design. Plus, my eyes are so bad close up it needs to be simple. Here's my Mondaine..

I don't wear a watch that much, but have an Apple Watch for when I do.

The out of line date numbers would do my head in.

I hear you but they're not normally like that. It looks perfect right now, apart from it's ridiculous-o'clock obviously. I did change the strap to the red version though. Looks way better.

I love watches and they are for wearing. Whats the point of not using it and licking I away. ?
I've followed F1 for over 35 years so for me there has to be only one make for me. Luckily I got one for my 40th 12 years ago. It only comes off for a new battery which has happened twice and a service. Its a Kirium F1 and the buttons are the shape of the 2003 Renault F1 air box.
