What watch to wear to the UK?

Recently came back from a trip to London / Edinburgh. Bought a new watch for it but heck the rest are coming along too! Just realized that a pepsi was perfect for this trip. It had the right complication (GMT) and colors (union jack)

And managed to try on the new Oyster Perpetual 39 at Heathrow airport :)

Very cool.
I took 3 of mine to Mexico recently to change things up while travelling.
Have a great time in the UK.

Picking watches for travel is so difficult. A variety is always best!

If you want a watch that you can wear in any environment or situation in the UK, you definitely need a 39mm Explorer. We Brits place a high value on discreet attire and the Explore fits the bill perfectly.

If you do not have one, please buy one before you fly in.

Regards

Mick

PS Your last watch actually looks good, so wear that that one.
