which watch to wear to London next week?

When I used to do business there I wore a Timex digital, because that's what I had. Now I have a few watches, all affordable enough to wear for travel. None of the GMTs appeal to me - I think I can handle a 5 hour difference in my head. Of all of my watches this Casio Pro Trek radio solar is the easiest to change to London time and back (around 5:30 in the video). Also the battery won't run out! I'll bring a Timex Expedition digital beater with Time2 set to London as a backup.

I left that money in the stock market. Maybe the Swiss watch market will hit bottom soon. https://www.forbes.com/sites/garthfr...-report-finds/

I'd take my Seamaster and the Octopus King for a burner watch, I don't want to get mugged if I'm in a shady part of town.

I would wear an Apple watch or if you own a "Super Clone" i would do that. London is like the mecca for watch theft in broad daylight. I'd never wear my pieces there

I wore my G Shock DW5600-E there and didn't get stabbed... I'd recommend it
