    Love Omegas but wouldn't buy 1 as i just break watches of all types. Had some nice ones around the 100 mark which is kind of where i draw the line. D&G, Seikio kinetic and a couple others. one I use most at the moment was about 25 quid at Manchester airport just a cheap Casio, works ok though! Most expensive watch is the Garmin 405 running watch I have.

    I'd love a snoopy but can't justify the cost of one. I think I'd buy a old seiko pogue.

    How to tell the time Spike Milligan style - who needs a watch?

    Got a chronographwatch that cost about £25 on Tchibo magazine but have had so many comments about how good it looks, must have had it almost 10 years.
    Have also got a windy-up Vostok watch that I wear for work, bought it when I worked in Russia, needs new strap now though

    Great watches the old russian you get loads over here. Especially the 3133 chronographs. There are still Tchibo's in poland the the watches do look the part. On a whole german made watches are cheap and excellent for the money. I have a couple of these http://www.steinhartwatches.de/en/diver-watch.html the ocean one black (ceramic bezel) and the triton and the service from steinhart is second to none. The Triton i bought broken second hand and they even fixed it for me for free (and paid the postage).
