WA1211 today! Brand new bezel, click spring and Swiss ETA 955.412 just installed! Eventually would love to install a new crown, crystal and seals.
New addition to the Wrist.
#35 but first watch since 2021.
it’s been a hard slog to get through Covid, but well and truly out the other side financially now.
A recent trip to Japan produced a couple of opportunities to secure a watch that has interested me for a while.
I’ve often been a voice of distain when it comes to Bamford editions but I will have to eat humble pie.
This Aquaracer Bamford edition , AKA “Aquaradar”
Just grabbed me and wouldn’t come of my wrist.
I love it, accents of orange are nicely done the seconds hand has a great look going on.
If my memory serves me right,I scored it quite low in the Coco scoring round for this one.
Anyway, it really is a nice addition to my collection after a long hiatus.
oh, I did say a couple of opportunities were presented.
The second will have to go on the “ Other brands” thread. Unlike me to go near anything that doesn’t say Heuer on the dial but it just felt right as soon as I set eyes on it.
Look out for that on the other thread.
I wish, just have finally caught up with all the wuhanvirus canceled trips. Use the credits or lose em. So yeah, it’s been pretty rough. 😗

Congrats mate! The Bamford Aquaradar actually got my COCO vote for WOTY. Enjoy it in good health! 👍
That is a great shot of a great watch- If only they made these glass boxes in a 43mm , I could actually wear some of them 👎
I think you would have loved the Panda that is coming soon. Problem is that it's a 39mm.
The 42mm Srafarerer might be more to your liking?
Sounds interesting.... I have been away from the forum for a while , so haven't been keeping up with the gossip.
Any idea of the release date of the Seafarer?
