    Plenty of Timex, not many Seiko around as they only allow authorised retailers...unless we get hold of them by other means, such as bankrupt stock, etc.

    I had a seiko automatic for 36 years never let me down until its death.

    I currently have a seiko kinetic, I have had this watch for about 8 years, I had it serviced 4 years ago because it would not hold its charge.
    It is again not holding its charge, therefore needs servicing, the service charge is more than a new automatic seiko, that's why I am going back to using one

    I have a seiko kenitic titanium gold for 12 years but this year it needs servicing and when I inquire the service center how much it depends most likely its over a hundred pounds. I bought it at 450. So i just keep it.

    I have proudly seen off 2 Seiko "5", 1 Seiko Cronograph, 1 Bulova Accutron, 1 Omega Seamaster "007".....

    Don't ask me how.........

    So for the last few years I taken the cheap and cheerful route to time keeping...

    Timex Indiglo
    Bulova Sea Master (Battery dead)
    Ben Sherman ( again no battery)

    I must admit that the Timex I bought from Asda is just too good to be true, and well balanced ..

    I can't be bothered to wear a watch. Who cares what the time is anyway?

    Oh, I do have a Seiko from 1965 which was still working when we packed up the contents of the house in November 2007. I wonder when it will get unpacked again?

    I've been a courier/delivery driver for about ten years now with quite a lot of time deadlines to meet. I never ever wear watches myself those things irritate me! One of the first things I told my Vimvie was "don't buy me a watch!" 'cause sometimes people notice I haven't got one and they're like "awww he's not got a watch..we'll get him a nice watch!" There's a reason why I don't have a watch..it's because I don't like them!

    It's my birthday soon and it will be "Look we got you a watch! We noticed you didn't have one!"

    There are 7 Planes Of Existance:

    7 — Material Plane: The earth, where you are right now.
    6 — Plane of Forces
    5 — Astral Plane
    4 — Mental Plane
    3 — Too mysterious to describe.
    2 — Too mysterious to describe.
    1 — Too mysterious to describe.
