Sorry to drag this thread back to watches, but I just got a grey dial Royal Oak. I love the blue dial version which I've had for a month or two - it's quickly (and surprisingly to me) become of my favourite watches for work. The Genta design is awesome in the flesh, really gorgeous.

The grey dial version I think is slightly less yummy, but still a great watch.

I would however really recommend these bad boys if anyone's umming and ahhhing about buying a Royal Oak (the latest JF ones). The only downside is the noisy rotor but we all know that's not the end of the world.  Great watches.

Leave my shitty photos alone!!!!

I'm indoors, no natural light and can't afford a new phone because I keep buying watches!!!!!

The iPhone X camera is awesome though. Friends keep WhatsApping me photos taken with their iPhone X and the quality is outstanding.

Harsh! It's an iPhone SE. I don't like the big phone obsession.

So I realised that my enormous 15 slot watchbox that I thought I'd never, ever, ever fill was kind of full. I'd noticed that I'd started to leave watches in drawers etc because I had nowhere for one or two of them to live so I thought the time was nigh to get another watchbox so the one or two extra watches would have somewhere to rest.

So a second identical watchbox turned up today. As a Brucie Bonus, it was slightly faulty in that the locking mechanism was fitted off centre which meant the key didn't fit in the lock and the lid was slightly wonky when closed.  So I spoke to the seller and we agreed to knock £25 off the price rather piss around with returning it.

Once that was agreed and I had been refunded, I wondered if it could be fixed. It could! Literally in about five seconds flat! Definitely less than ten! Result! So perfect watchbox on the cheap.

Anyway, I added my watches, shuffled them round a bit and the current state of the collection is this.

The bad news is that I had more extra watches than I thought so already, I've only got six spaces left! Feck!

And I've got three watches incoming!!!! Doh!!!!!!!!

Time to think about buying another watchbox I reckon....

Nice boxes!  You should see if the seller will work a "bulk purchase" price cause you know that is not going to be enough room!

One more box max!!!

There's only so many watches I want. 45 should be plenty. Even wearing two a day, that's a lot of unused watches.

JF. I didn't think I'd care for it that much, but it's a cracker, especially if you've got a hint of red/purple or similar in your outfit.

It's hard to justify spending that money when the rep is so good - even though that's as cheap as a Rolie gets!

:rofl:  Oh how naive....

 

that's what I said and now I am putting together a cabinet that will hold at least 96 because there was no more room on the counter tops for more watch boxes!

But I saw you thread earlier, the $8 ladies Timec. I would NEVER do that (even if it was bigger/bloke's watch). Quality, not quantity for me. Some of the ones I have will be sold at some point as I tire of them. Only the classics will stay.

Oh those beauties will never make it to the cabinet.  In all honesty, not counting any of the "bargain" watches I picked up to just work on or something like that Timex, I have about 60 of  what I consider "real" watches.  A few of those 60 will not get any real wrist time but I hold on to them for their sentimental value; such as the 1946 Elgin which was my dad's H.S. graduation watch.
