Stainless steel or GP, then yes, that's pretty much the ballpark. But 9ct gold case, then no. Most definitely not.

Sadly though, a lot of gold and silver watch cases end up being sold for scrap, which is why you see so many decent "orphaned" movements for sale. A shame, really...

£120 which is still cheap for a gold watch especially for a good make .

Not sure if the ride planned for half 5 will go ahead .

maybe it's instinct? meaning, running water would be fresh, clean & healthy but stagnant water might be sketchy?

It's scorchio

Just tootled to the letter box over the level crossing to post summat for the parental unit. Glad to be back indoors. The strong breeze does take an edge off the heat somewhat, but when you're out of the breeze...

I'm looking forward to filling my face with cherries though - my Bigarreau Napoleon is *loaded* this year.

I'm in a tenants'and residents' meeting. It's the most shambolic meeting I have ever been to. Since the last one.

My feelings exactly. This morning’s ride was positively lovely for the first couple of miles in the wind. Then not quite so lovely for the remainder. That might also have been due to the absence of cafes on the route.
