Granted those other things were watches and I justified it to myself on the grounds that I can always get a monster but I may not get the chance again to get one of these older watches. And so it kept getting put off.

    Now being a wary sort of bloke I always worried about buying a new watch from the other side of the world at a discounted price. After all if it sounds too good to be true and all that eh ? No such problems with Creation. The watch is fantastic and as described. Free DHL express fully trackable postage. I mean, come on, 4 days from payment to your door from Singapore ! What's not to like about that when your an impatient WIS used to waiting 2 to 3 weeks for Russia post to send you your purchase via a one winged asthmatic carrier pigeon!

    Now the watch. I was slightly apprehensive about the pin and collar set up as I had to remove two links. There was no need to worry, it is not half as hard as some people on YouTube would have you believe. It took me about 10 minutes to remove both and reattach the strap to the watch head.
    I am over the moon with it. The size is perfect, it has a quality feel and weight to it and the seiko lume is breathtaking. Other people's pictures of it don't do it justice, you have to see it for yourself. I had always planned to get an OM and put it on o e of those good quality mesh straps but honestly after seeing how good the bracelet really is in the flesh it can stay as it is.

    I could go on an on and on singing its praises but I have to go and get ready for work as I'm off out in an hour so I'll sign off now with my big stupid "I've got a new watch" grin all over my face

    Ta da for now


    So many watches and so little time.
    Think someone is happy

    London, I am NOT a cockney, though I live nearer to Bow Bells than most "cockneys" do.

    Here's mine. Saw a picture of this model about a year ago and decided that this was the one. A bit rarer than the usual
