A whole new approach to sales, no price reductions just increases 😁

Today this piece sits at £200GBP inc. UK shipping elsewhere at cost, a few days from now who knows what the price may be 🤔

Watches from this era look great on trench straps like this one from David Boetticher. Only downside is accessing the cool dust covers and movements is tougher. This Tobias would look amazing on such a strap.

I concur on the the trench strap from David B

£200 on the watch, £50 on the strap and you have a fun watch that nobody else you know is wearing.
And these aren’t as “precious” as everyone thinks. I wear my trench watches to the office regularly (when we used to go to offices), just don’t be an idiot.

Just ordered an inexpensive trench off the bay, interested to see how it works out 🤔

Thought that might happen! It’s a fantastic piece. I’ve tried those skinny open end straps. They just didn’t cut it.

Answered the door this afternoon to a delivery girl and she actually commented on "such a beautiful watch" I can honestly say in all the years this is a first 😀

I'm sure you gave her a smile, but she was really hoping for a tip.

Her ladyship has me well trained, first I do not smile at young girls and second I do not give them cash 🤔
