It looks like a Garmin or a Tag Huer smart watch I did notice it too and thought it looked smart.

Is Neil Spooner Watch like weird version of Springwatch? Has Chris Packham got night vision cameras in Spooners bedroom?

The kind you don't wanna see on a customs officer giving you an internal cavity check.

If you want a good quality mechanical watch at a reasonable price look out for an older Eterna.
As already said there are several better watch brands than Rolex but an older Eterna will have a quality comparable or better than a Rolex without the high price tag.

Unfortunately the quality of the modern Eterna has gone down hill with new ownership though.

Imagine the buzz at Korda HQ when Spoons walked in in his new watch.

I actually wear a cheap Casio G-shock for fishing. Never dream of wearing either of my Omegas fishing or for that matter, any from my collection of my Tags/Bell & Ross or Oris watches - yet I see Fairbrass doing exactly that. I've seen videos with him wearing a carrera and a seamaster, both of which I also own. These are respectively three and four grand watches. Just seems daft to me, but hey... the Korda lads all seem to be wearing TAG connected watches, the older models... and before anyone starts, there's nothing wrong with collecting nice things if you can afford them. No different from owing nice cars. You're only on this planet once after all

I was just thinking the same. Most tradesmen I know charge more than £200 a day and that's not even a twelve hour shift.

Actually quite a bit on some of the sites I've worked on.

I've been known to have a cheeky snooze in the van between jobs in the summer.

You lot!

I've got a decent watch, wear it every day of the week, wear it fishing too. Take it off for fish shots.

my iphone keeps better time and doesn't cost as much to service
