About time we get some more Coral love up in here! Here are some (out of focus) pics of my SuperOcean plus the watch winder I got for Christmas.

Again sorry about the pics, I just have a little point and shoot camera!







Thanks!

Looks like the coral is lonely

Hey Colin, what's that winder like? Do the job OK?

Nice dive-orientated and functional looking SO you've got there too.

Haha, yes, it is very lonely right now on the winder, but I have been saving up to hopefully buy another Ling next year.

Thanks Driver! The winder has been working great for me! It is very quiet and has been reliable so far. The best part is it costs around $100! I know some people are skeptical of cheap winders thinking they won't be reliable over the long run. Personally, it does the job for me, and we will just have to see how it holds up!

Now, I just need to get my SO a friend!

Glad it's doing the job OK Collin! Personally I have no problem with cheap winders as long as they are still programable and incorporate rest periods in the cycle. I've had moderately expensive winders that have turned out to be rubbish, so if a cheapie lasts a year or so before getting noisy, who cares? You just replace it!

Nice looking winder. Sounds like a good value, too.

Hoping to join the Coral Club later this year; looking at the Superocean.

You guys are starting to give me scary ideas with all this Coral, as fare as getting a dial with some colour. I just got my mind set on purchasing a new Seawolf next week, black dial, and I will have my OR strap put on it. Now, when I see these pics, I wonder if I should maybe order a Seawolf with the Yellow dial, as I already have a Blacksteel and Steelfish with black dials. I know the Seawolf doesn't come in Coral dial, but I bet the Yellow is pretty hot?!
Great pics you two!
Cheers,
Carl

Color is a great way to spice up the everyday life!

I seriously think you should try a yellow dial on for at least 10 minutes at an AD. Sure, yellow is not as easy as black to match your outfit, but with several options in the watch-box and the right overall attitude/appearance you can absolutely pull it off.

Yeah, try finding a pair of shoes and handbag to match!

Cheers,

Thanks Carl! And nice pic as well, Aleister!

I agree, at least for me with the coral dial, it really is not that hard to pull off. Since I have the black diver strap, and I pretty much wear any black shirt (or orange of course) and it works great.

I would also suggest trying the yellow dial out, the bright colors are not that bad!
