Ask and you will receive - a forum gent and a watch stand

[Ryandoc]

You’ll have seen my recent thread regards a watch stand here

https://www.sportsmaserati.com/index.php?threads/who-makes-stuff-watch-stand.30074/

Some of you mocked, pffft. Well a certain gentleman got his tools out and without being asked made me this below.
Loz you are a true gent and the stand is genuinely perfect, it really is.

Really nice simple design, perfect size and feels solid which it is.

This also gives me an opportunity to advertise the fact that I own a Rolex as I know we like that on here. Nothing screams out success like a Rolex and a 10 year old Maserati.

Thanks again Loz. It will most certainly be used ! (PS I’m working from home today and blatantly staged the pic to make me look very clever)

Awesome, there are some nice guys on here which is one reason why I still hang around

I like a Sea-Dweller. Nice choice!

 

[Scaf]

Awesome, this really is a great community

It’s a lovely watch will never get rid. Have to admit a white face Daytona would be the watch to end all watches for me

 

[JonW]

Very nice stand and watch - I agree 100% with your definition of success!

Lovely gesture by Loz as well...

 

[Wattie]

That looks terrific. Skills! lovely gesture too.
So good it enhances your lovely Rolex!

 

[CatmanV2]

Yeah, I'm actually quite taken with that.

I may be missing something, but haven't we got wrists for this sort of job?

First to say or ask "Why?". Put it on your wrist ffs!

Because it bangs into the keyboard

I frequently take my watches off when working. And the solid bangle I have as well

Ladies ladies please, clearly it’s a 50/50 thing.

Relax, it’s Saturday evening, pour a drink or two.

Slip on a pair of your favourite slippers, pour yourself a drink and play that favourite record.

cheers

Indeed. I’m doing exactly that whilst renewing the watch strap on my Freeson which was a 50th birthday gift to to myself last year. A mate bought me a LeMans poster and a copy of MotorSport from June 1968 when I was born. Flicking through the adverts in the magazine I found a Swiss watch advert which caught my eye, so ended up on eBay. It’s not a Rolex, but I look forward to winding it up and putting it on after work everyday.

I would use a stand like that by my bed for my watch, bought in memory of my father and worn everyday....

 

[Ryandoc]

Two very nice watches there gents.

I have a speedmaster 50th anniversary edition one as well. The anniversary of the watch not the moon landing one as they are two different watches, well loosely different lol

Thread change .......

Just discovered this thread. The stand looks great, and what a generous gesture.
Is there an existing 'watch thread', if not, is there support for starting one?

There's one kicking around somewhere I think. Our watches tend to crop up in all sorts of other threads. Most favour Rolexes. Personally I lean towards Tags and Brietlings. So much so I'm looking at buying (another) one, only with a car attached
