Nice varied collection....
Love the Chopard Alpine Eagle. Is the Grey easy to read? I cant decide between grey or green.
It's such minimalist beauty in my eyes.
Have you had the slipping issue with the Tudor Pepsi? Or is that all sorted out nowadays?
I also had a Skydweller, loved the...
Here is her Seastar on the right...
As per the 2 posts above, it has similarity to her Yachtmaster (lower left) but on a coloured strap.
The Rolex's are no longer really that safe for many travel destinations unfortunately.
My mate was robbed at gunpoint in Brazil for his Submariner - and...
I bought the wife a Tissot Seastar for travel. A beater watch that shouldn't get you mugged for it.
I think it's a great watch for the money.
There's a wide range of models, sizes, colours, quartz or automatic etc.
It ticked every box I wanted for her:
36mm
Quartz
Waterproof
Date
Rotating...
Unsurprisingly, the UK Govt has also spotted this missed tax grab - and is introducing the following next April......by grouping zero emission cars in with polluting cars ?:
This measure will equalise the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) treatment of all zero emission and internal combustion engine...
When the Chinese manufacturers really get motoring (sorry about the pun) on the export market it's going to be something to watch out for.
They have already cornered their own market and are now looking overseas.
Mainstream manufacturers are going to have to adapt or die imo.
And (sorry) .....
I also think a lot of people work in binary.
They need to put things into one of 2 boxes in their mind:
Good or Bad
They don't have an 'undecided' box.
Even if they have fk all knowledge of something, they will want to pigeonhole it.
And unless there is any evidence to the...
Just another thing on my post above about people who seek to reinforce their bias by finding like minded people.
And I will use Brexit as my example here (either side).....
I noticed part of the need to prove they are right and the opposite viewpoint is wrong, they seek to belittle the other...
I agree wholeheartedly with this.
I used to buy a paper every day. Usually The Times, but occasionally The Telegraph and Guardian just to get perspective.
People don't understand that with the Internet / social media 'birds of a feather flock together'.
So people go onto sites that just...
When I first got my Taycan in 2021 most people were positive or neutral about ev's.
Now I find most ICE drivers are negative and all come out with the same old arguments that they have 'heard about'.
No experience mind you - just what they have heard / read.
Even people who have no interest in...
I often wonder who is behind all the anti EV propoganda?
I also notice that last week, Labour joined the Tories and are looking to backtrack on their green pledges.

Its very short sited by both...
I wonder what the NCAP pedestrian collision rating will be?
....... It may be the first vehicle to break every bone in the body in a front impact. ?
It actually reminds me of a Humphead Wrasse .....something about the eyes.
Apparenty deposits were stopped in UK / EU in 2022, as it won't meet safety standards....
However, there's another big stumbling block for the vehicle being made available in Europe - and that's the EV pick-up meeting strict safety regulations.
Because Cybertruck is classed as a light duty...
That is a thing of great beauty imo. Really like it.
Maybe the Germans (after a slow start with EVs) are starting to move in the right direction.
Hopefully they will leave Tesla to fight the (largely irrelevant) 0-60 battle and concentrate on driving dynamics and quality.
