So a month ago today was my 21st and my parents gave me money to buy myself a good chronograph watch (i've wanted one for a while)
Now that i've got the money i've been looking round the shops/jewelers but can only narrow it down to two... but can't make up my mind on which one to get. so im curios to see which the majority of sax-p would choose

if you were buying it, what would you get?
(1) (£250)

This is £90 more than they gave me but has a lot more to play with :)


(2) (£150)

this is £10 less than the money they gave me
i know the pics arent the best, on the jewelers website they take a couple of seconds to focus but theyre not doing it on here.

lol'ing at the votes 8-0

the yellows the only real thing puttin me off the second one the more i think about it

apart from lowering the new car, ive pretty much got all my mods already. so no big expense there, plus its only an 8v so cheaper insurance :d and more likely to get the casio one even with the extra expense

Black one will suit all occasions mate, yellow one def looks more casual & would look a bit out of place when suited & booted etc

I still can't believe your younger than me!

Despite the poll, i think the Accurist is nicer.


EDIT: First one is nicer on closer inspection. :p

i think the 1st one is worth the extra money anyway :y:

cheers for everyone's input, reckon i've been swayed :)

Accurist, make great watches, therefore I vote for the 2nd one

The first one is lush mate, the 2nd one would be great for casual though, but 1st one is an alrounder, damn i want a watch like this now :(
