[cojak]

Thank you, Gonzo...

Yep - I spoke to Cojack over the phone, definitely female

Cojack - when it comes to watches nothing like Baume&Mercier.

Well, if you will use such a provocative avatar, what do you expect?


Must go to a dark room now.

Hi Cojak

Not going to recommend a particular make/model but can offer the following suggestions:

Was at the Bicester shopping village recently and they now have a Tag Heuer shop there with some good watches at well within your budget. Might be worth a look see if you live that way. Linky

An overseas (Far East) etailer might be worth investigating as watches are cheaper there. Linky

The strong £/$ ER may make it worth while buying from a US etailer.

Check out eBay - I bought a watch safely on there a few years ago.

Clippy.

Ah - you might have missed the subtlety of this one Sal,

I'm going for the 'brook no nonsense but know elegance when one sees it' approach.

A 36mm dial is small but elegant and there's much more choice for men.

Alaso a good man/girlfriend admitted there was something 'tingly' about my suggestion of a good man's watch on my wrist...

It takes all sorts, I s'pose....

There's much more choice in womens knickers than mens boxers but you don't see male contractors going around wearing knickers do you?

I find them comfortable and they give me confidence........... oh, regarding watches, there is only one .............




The Breitling Emergency

Saving lives Designed for pilots and aircrews,
the BREITLING EMERGENCY is an instrument watch with built-in
micro-transmitter, broadcasting on the 121.5 MHz aircraft emergency frequency*.
Following a crash or a forced landing, for example, the EMERGENCY will
broadcast a signal on which rescuers can home in. The watch thus serves as a
complement to the aircraft's own distress signaling equipment. The EMERGENCY's
transmitter is activated by unscrewing a protective cap and pulling the antenna
out fully. It will then broadcast for 48 hours. Over flat terrain or calm seas, the
transmitter's signal on the 121.5 MHz aircraft emergency frequency has a range of
about 160 kilometers (100 miles) assuming the search aircraft is flying
at 6'000 m (about 20,000 feet).
*For military personnel, BREITLING has designed an EMERGENCY version with
start-stop switch that transmits on the 243 MHz frequency.

Can be put to great use on a friday night in the city if you want to out-watch the traders

only kidding, only a tool of massive proportions would waste mony on this type of a watch, I have a swatch and it's 50 AUD

My wife likes wearing my acient Zodiac, even if she complains that its a bit heavy.

'Course I go watchless and just use my mobile phone to check the time when I need to.
