I know I'll get flamed for this, but looking at them 'side-by-side', I actually prefer the cleaner styling of the Timex ! World's apart in price and specification, but there you have it - as I said, the Timex does genuinely look like a watch from the 70s.

I was just about to say the same. I like the Timex better - by looks. I never really liked the Tag Heuer Aquaracer watches that much. Of all the TAG Heuer watches the Carrera's are the only ones that appeal to me.

Anyone into vintage watches ? Stumbled on an Omega from 1958 today - absolutely gorgeous.  

I have an Omega seamaster form the early 70s that was my father's and a friend of mine rebuilt for me with all original pieces. I'll post a picture later.

superb, musicman59 - I eagerly await the photo. Handy friend to have, btw - I only seem to attract friends who know how to watch cricket while drinking (my) beer. :D

I'm currently using this Fossil watch. I got it as a Christmas gift from my girlfriend.

Szadzik, you know you want it - why torture yourself ?  It's only money, and we are dead for a very long time.

True. I promised myself my Omega Speedmaster Pro would be the last watch and it only took me 6 month to buy the Tissot. Maybe one day I will get that Astron, or wait for a newer version of Tissot with sync and solar power. I already have 4 watches and it is really hard to wear more than one at a time :wink:
