black263 228 Posted February 15, 2020 I've had a WTB for a Hamilton triangular watch, but no takers. So, today, Clare and I happened to be walking through the Milton Keynes shopping centre, and spotted a display in Earnest Jones. I had to go in, didn't I? Fortunately, Clare was wearing her Longines, and I had my Breitling on, so no concerns about going in wearing a rep. Naturally, I was the only one who was interested in a Hamilton. Unfortunately, right next to the one I wanted to look at was a "lady" version. So to cut a long story short, 24 hours late, we both had Valentine Day presents. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCShrek 494 Posted February 15, 2020 I’m with @WatchDog21, I was indifferent about this watch until they appeared in a couple of Men In Black movies. Liked the movies but loved the look of the watch. Both different and classic at the same time. Good catch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
