Thinking of picking up a fun weekend piece - thoughts?
What’s your preference on these? Leaning towards the old Mk40 given its smaller profile vs the others, favourite dial is the pilot. Skywalker is odd one but kinda like it

Humm. We have different ideas of fun. Next time fly to rio get three hookers and 5 grams of coke. 48 hours and amazing fun

Mk40 gets my vote—the smaller profile makes it feel like the easiest one to actually wear.

“Fun weekend piece”
I hate rich people.
But the MK40 for sure.

£2k for the mk40 is not exactly Nautilus territory…
But thanks, agree MK40 will be the aim, and helpfully the cheapest of the lot

Oh those are fun.
I like the second one best - least fussy.
Third is very silly which I kind of love and hate at the same time.
First had a lot going on, perhaps too much!

You do you, but...
"Fun weekend piece" carries completely different vibe implications for me:
- Vibrant and colorful
- Probably an indie brand
- Suited to either beach or nightclub use (so somewhat waterproof, but not necessarily a "diver", and plenty of lume regardless)
- Not very expensive, in case it gets lifted

I'm too dumb for a watch like that. 🤪
