What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

View attachment 612914

One of the watches I had assembled. Seiko 4R35 movement in a modified SKX type case. Shroud made from naval bronze, and assembled with blind hole screws. The bezel insert is sapphire, rear printed with lume applied so the hash marks and numerals can be seen in darkness. Domed sapphire crystal. The bezel itself was made by a fellow up in.... Ohio I think. The back is engraved "The Dog's Bollocks", because I think this one turned out well, has been worn quite a bit too.
Intersting take on the Tuna. Looks very well done
 
Theres a Marine Master tuna here too, but I tend to like the built up ones best

I don't always wear a watch when I hunt. But when I do, I prefer a Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime.

I don't always hunt Roe Deer, but when I do this one keeps pretty good time.

Just ordered another watch. :rolleyes:

Thanks a lot, you pack of enablers :ROFLMAO:

Not sure it'll see much hunting duty.

I'd had a hankering for a blue faced watch for a while.
I didn't have a GMT (apart from the G-Shock).
I didn't have a Flieger (It'll do until I get a Laco).

Sapphire, screw down crown, interesting GMT operation, Swiss movement (Ronda 515 from memory), some cool Glycine history.

What's there not to like for US$127!

@0002S I like the espresso at 5:30!

I’m wearing an Omega Seamaster 300 now, fantastic watch. My son wore it to prom, which is a different sort of hunting.

Everyday
 
Checking the time before I test the water resistance in Aruba.

Picked up a WOE Five Eye Nato strap for my everyday. Really liking the Nato strap over band or bracelet, not sure i'll ever go back.

You have good taste! I agree, the WOE straps are excellent.

About Lon's Elephant hunts w/Tokoloshe? I hear Lon is battling cancer? What is his long term prognosis? I am already booked to hunt Africa in 2024 2025. Might consider 2026 for another African hunt. I want to hunt a more wild open region devoid of civilization. Concern is the risk that I book f/2026 then find poor Lon has passed on? Does Lon have any assistance to carry on the business in his absence?

Is your 22HP still available? If so have the original case?

Hi Ian, I'm contemplating my first outing, leaving UK via Dubai to Africa, taking rifles as you did.

I presume it went okay for you, would you have done anything differently? Cheers, Richard East Sussex

Are you still looking for a 375 H&H?
