For the first time I can remember someone noticed the watch I was wearing.

Of course it could be because I waving my wrist around to wind it........or the colour :) .

I always find if I walk round a shop for example Marks and Spencers wearing just a pair of undies, wellington boots, a woolly hat to ensure you maintain a modicum of decency and your watch. All the old dears notice my watch. They all stare. In fact the security guard came to escort me out. He was so frightened my watch might get nicked by one of them :swoon:

I think you underestimated Marks and Sparks clientele . Should up the footfall in the store you frequent :toot: .

Just a simple question, the Marine Star is a lovely watch, in just about any colour :) I even like the orange... except for the rubberised poo strap.
I would never cast aspersions about you SBgb..........you are entertaining and knowledgeable.......good value :toot: .

I can always change the poo strap when Mrs RWP allows me out again!

I saw one of these in the window of Goldsmiths a few years ago and I loved the Orange strap on it. I think It was the fact such an expensive piece dared to be bright and fun. Sort of a Juxtapose to Its own exclusivity. Gave it a sort of 'I don't care happy go lucky' look. Sort of self effacing to its undoubted charm and good lucks. The Bulova reminds me of it.

Don't like the strap .......... not that keen on the watch either now that I stop to think about it & I'm not sure about the Marine Star either for that matter :( I used to like orange what's wrong with me?!

Does the Bulova have the smooth sweep second hand? Nice that someone noticed it though - was it someone you knew or a complete (as opposed to being in bits) stranger?

:)

I had this watch for quite a while before I realised the bezel actually turns - I just assumed the hex bolts were holding it in a fixed position :laugh:
So what you're saying is that although it's covered in blooming great bolts..... they don't actually work..... :laugh:
