Off topic watch chat for the horologists out there

Might be able to find a cheaper second hand watch which is his ‘birth year’ so a 2005?

My 3 children all got birth year watches for their 18th (2000/2002/2005)

Re: New Member - Cheshire

Hi Jason, All good with me, hope you are fine too! After selling the Cup car and Cayman R I worked out pretty quickly that I was missing the air cooled fix - having had the ‘64 RS, NGT and Cup I thought I’d better try something older taking the well trod path by other mutual friends :-) Thx for the...
