I've been looking for a decent colour-face watch that will look good as a more "dressy" watch for special occasions. It'll be my second big watch purchase. [This one](https://www.sherwoodwatches.com/product-page/commander-green) caught my eye as, being from Nottinghamshire myself, I like the design and the fact that it pays subtle homage to the city. Obviously it's a new microbrand, but it's got some good reviews (see [here](https://wristwatchreview.co.uk/sherwood-commander-review) for example) and some nice specs - a Miyota 9039 Automatic movement and a double-dome sapphire crystal. What do you guys think? Any words of caution/encouragement?
I fell out of love with smart watches and decided to get a nice mechanical. This came with a black Milanese strap which I swap out for a black sailcloth for regular use. I've got the bug now: I want a quartz chronograph (love the Tissot PRC200), a colour face watch for occasions (I'm eyeing up the [Sherwood Commander](https://www.sherwoodwatches.com/product-page/commander-green) as it's a microbrand local to me) and I'd love a nice Farer watch as well. It's gonna take time to save for all that though and I'll likely change my mind along the way.

Was recently in Sweden. A swede recommended the combo of cheese and English marmalade on toast.
Sounds deeply weird but it's surprisingly nice. Can confirm it also works as a crumpet topping.
