Yes - to the shop in Frankfurt. I need to find an excuse for a business trip.

For the Emira maybe we could get Seiko to design something for the V6 cars and Sinn for the AMG.

yes to the shop, no to the red light district..
I stayed in a hotel there once on a very nice round the world 15 countries in 30 days trip.... only to find my hotel was in the middle of sex worker central......
Needless to say I "watched" where trod with great care and came up with a good "mechanism" to figure out how to avoid their "faces" so that I didn't get tempted to head in some where and get whipped with their "straps"....or slapped by their "hands"
It is the watch forum isnt it, so just throwing in some key words to avoid being kicked out into the pub

What DO you do for a living?
I think we need to know. Sounding very Pablo Escobar

Another of my favourite dailys, PAM 111, love the sandwich dial and have loads of strap options. Could probably get away with this as my one watch does it all

And my birth year 1974 breitling Datora

Oooo Chopard Eagle is a grail of mine.
I did consider a Grand Seiko also! This is close in nature to the GS as its a High Beat movement, helpful......?

Love a high beat movement

Whenever I pur my Deepsea on I always think I wish it was bigger and had a better depth rating

I would like to see how this wears in titanium, 50mm is a size though, my biggest at the moment is a 48mm breitling super Avenger

Love the cut through dial on the PAM total classic. Also love the classic! That's a great birth year watch, take you long to find? I'm keeping my eyes peeled for an immaculate 1974 Seiko Willard

Well seeing as we're all posting pictures of our watches, here's my Speedy, though it's now fitted with a black leather strap with a deployment clasp. View attachment 10263

Nice a speedy! I love those…got the black and yellow Dark Side of the Moon to go with my Giallo Modena F12 (black alcantara - yellow stitching interior), a Grey Side of the Moon to go with Abu Dhabi Grey FF, an Alaska to go with the white GT3 and Yaris GR….a 1965 Ed White in mint condition to go with the Bianco 1965 Alfa Romeo Sprint GT… some of the cars are gone or are going…the Speedys are keepers.

Wife bought it me about 20yrs ago, think she only paid about 300 quid for it!

Willand would be cool, I also like the re issue.

I bought the re issue of the sieko Arnie from the 80s when they did them a few years ago.

What model is that? Love GS but don't understand their sizing. They tend ro be either 38 - 40mm which is on small side for me. OR 44Mm plus which is too big.... Wheres the 42mm loving

It is SBGK 009 . 39mm with lug to lug 44mm. I like their elegance and heritage range. They fit into my comfort zone (anything between 36-40mm) for my smallish wrist. Fortunate to have few of GS's with other movements. Here is another one- SLGA 007.
