"Sustainability

Let me let you into a secret...they are not sustainable!!

Feel very much the same about wearing a wristwatch. Possibly as a result of them, or the straps, constantly breaking in my childhood.

Not really necessary any more, having effectively a fob watch (mobile phone) in my pocket anyway.


I wonder how Facters' John Harrison H4 (bought from new) is doing..

Just one small problem; sell their houses to who, Ben? Fcking Aquaman?

Now that's sustainable!

Although I have one of these on my wrist...

Awesome! I want one!

I do have a lot of watches from manual thorough to solar, nearly all pretty rubbish, but I like them. I’ve not owned a Smart watch though I may buy one one day. I do have one for golf distances but can’t read it without glasses, which I’m not going to faff with in the middle of a golf course! Total waste of money.

Uppied - it's absolutely the most important thing, that you like and enjoy what you have.

My Square shaped Tag Heuer Monaco is fine, thanks.

Let's see who gets 50 years out of their smart watch and it's network of satellites.


I wear my smart watch for day to day use. But I also have a Swiss made watch that I’ve had for over twenty years, and with regular servicing will last longer than I do.

It’s also doubled its value in that period. Not that I’d sell. My boy will get it when I pop my clogs.

Is the servicing actually worth it? I have 2 nice automatic watches and haven’t had either serviced in their lifetime, was it expensive?

I am going to say 100% not.

My watch was never the same since a service at Watches of Switzerland. I presume (and should really know) - if they service onprem or send of to the manufacture. I suspect the latter.

Perhaps its just my imagination but it does not seem to keep time as well as it did.

I’ve heard something similar to be fair, I’m also conscious the costs for servicing can be a tad eye watering.

I've had an Apple watch for a few years for fitness tracking, it does get a bit addictive making sure you get the three little rings closed every day.

It does tell the time, read and send texts, and answer calls (but you do look a bit of a dick doing that).

Sustainable..... are any watches?
