Sir Walter Raleigh declared in the early 17th century that "whoever commands the sea, commands the trade; whosoever commands the trade of the world commands the riches of the world, and consequently the world itself." This principle is as true today as when uttered, and its effect will continue as long as ships traverse the seas."

My new watch! The quality is recognisably better, from my albeit limited knowledge compared to the Breitlings or Omega's i've picked up - although it could be just the weight of the thing giving me that impression...
Please no comment on my girly wrists....RAC(TA) - 2006-2009

There's a cheap Breitling here.
Apparently some moderators take themselves very, very seriously, and cannot abide posts such as:
"If however you offer to moderate you may be a sanctimonious, unfunny pissflap to your heart's content."
Some comments are allegedly "very very nasty and uncalled for."

I'd like to say it's the size of the watch making my wrist look smaller... it's all a matter of perspective. Ahem

Marathon J-SAR.
or
UTS 3000M
One costs eight times more than the other, but it's hard to say which is better.

Being an Omega owner, perhaps I'm being a little defensive... but simply having an in-house movement does not inherently make it a good movement. And is the Co-Axial escapement simply a tarted up version of a swatch? I'm no expert but the limited reading I did suggested otherwise... Originally Posted by Blokeonabike
