eBay is an absolute goldmine for this kind of stuff.

This Nomos watch is fab - absolutely what I'd love in a Mod watch ... understated but elegant and precise. Rather like the rest of my look...

Compared to the Nomos online shop, 300 smackers is a bargain!

Couple of decent ones here. I like the wide, minimalist style (as always).

One of these days I'll shut up and buy one. But for now, I'm going to stare.
​
Update: These watches are about £15,000 each. Scratch that.

Old skool, but again a super smart one. 

Another bizarre one. Quite smart tho.

1. It’s a bit busy for me. It’s a Breitling and I love their adverts and it probably glows in the dark, but far too many digits and dials for me.
​
2. Nice and open watch face, two dials and a quite elegant style of font for the numbers. It’s quite wide, which I’m not usually keen on, but I’d probably get this one.

3. Again, as this one is essentially a brown version of 2, I am in favour. I prefer it in brown, it goes well with blue that is usually my default colour.

4. I’m a big fan of this one - practically minimal detailing, although it still has a few dials and the strap is a bit weird at the top. I also quite like the slender watch hands in blue, a strong look.

5. Definitely one I wouldn’t go for. Bulky, fabric strap and just a mess on the watch face. It also appears to have a compass built in which is another pointless extra. My brother would probably love it.

6. This is ridiculous. When did square watch faces become a thing? 

Elegant, dark, not too fussy. Probably expensive. Suede strap? 

1. Extremely plain here, but with an extra dial. I'm not sure about it - looking at the watch face gives me the creeps. A bit too clinical for me.

2. Nice, with a healthy dose of dials and switches on the side too. Dark watch face is a nice contrast to usual and the numbers are written in a good smooth font. I could probably get this.

​3. Not usually a huge fan of metal straps and it has a fair few dials on the face. Probably less than likely for me.

4. Sorry but this is just a bit too clinical for me. Plus… black and gold? Straddling that balance between bling and minimalist.

5. Another minimalist. This one is slightly more attracting without the in-your-face gold effect, but the colour scheme of the watch face doesn’t make telling the time at speed very easy. Seems illogical.

6. This is a good balance between clarity and tidiness. Bold, but not huge numbers, clear hands and no additional dials cluttering up the face.. 
ere to edit.

I can't seem to find this on the website, so I can't give you a place to get it. The price is a ludicrous £649 apparently. But then, as I said, this could be rumour.

But it's nice - classic simple face without extra "sports" dials etc. and a smooth finish without looking too bulky.

1. Pretty sound navy jumper from the new PG season.

2. One of the stronger numbers from PG’s new season.

3. Always wanted a pair of these. I also know a discount shoe shop near where I work. Anything off that hefty £185 price tag has got to be welcome.

4. Variation on a red, white and blue watch strap I already have.

5. I know we’re moving towards the warmer months but you’ve got to keep stocked up.

6. This one is definitely a wish - PG are moving on from their last season and this lot are sold out… Will they ever be seen again?
​
7. Again, one of the stronger numbers from PG’s new season.

8. I’m going to keep putting it on my list until I've got one…
