Well done Adam, I’m not a watch person myself, but the son in law is having a special edition Para watch made, Ive heard figures between £5000 to £8000, would that be right? He’s in Iraq at moment so I will text him, he showed me photos just before he went back. I do love to see nice watches on men, but I always think I could spend my money on something else, thanks for sharing your knowledge of watched Adam.
Never heard of those. Just checked & they don't seem that expensive.
I spent a month looking for a watch. Eventually did it the old fashioned way in an H Samuel shop. Have had about 15 people comment on it. Both people I know & don't know. Worth getting a good looking watch in my view. It will get noticed ! A good way to clean them is with a soft toothbrush & washing up liquid. Special sprays & cloths are also good.
Mine is now obsolete so can't be replaced if lost or stolen. Battery needs to be replaced every 18 months which means H Samuel sends it away for two weeks.
It seems Bamber also realised watches are important. Even more so in the 80's as there were no mobile phones. So he obtained two Cartier watches.
