lets talk watches

[freecat]

does anyone know of a (black coated) explorer I-like watch with a swiss movement ?

i kinda like the mkII one but there might be cheaper alternative.

I'm eventually gonna get around to getting the Sinn rubber band with deployant clasp...

hmm... good idea. will look into this.

was messing around with the superheadz cam's macro function last night.

hey can you guys help me find a watch....

I want a watch with a really really thin (width wise) black leather band, and a small face as well.

sorry if the description sucks, hopefully someone will have something in mind.

sounds like this would be perfect for you, time to email hide san!

really like the design and simplicity of the watch with its fixed lugs and clean dial.

hey thanks a lot for the links, but I'm looking for something pretty different (I know the description was pretty vague, sorry).

here's a picture of what I'd like...Idk maybe I'll get this watch even but I'm just not sure of the size. I want something super small, almost like a ladies watch even.

I have a feeling though that these pics are deceiving and the actual watch and band is a lot bigger than I am imagining.

I'd prefer a gold frame as well. I should probably just look at the measurements...

[asher_roslynn]

While we're on the same page, can anyone point out a watch design similar to Frank Gehry's collab w/ Fossil? Or if you want to sell it to me at a good price...

I think I just enjoy the hands the most

similar meaning what? numbers that look hand written? stick hands?

plenty of watches with stick hands. check out the watch I linked for capa

@capa, I have no clue what to recommend since it seems like you want lady watches and I know squat about that.

How's something like this. Old pic I had.

[capa]

^^ that's pretty cool actually. more into an oval frame though. info?

[M4TM]

Cartier tank watch. Classic and pretty small. Not sure if there's an oval version tho...

[capa]

thanks man. those are so far out of my price range though, haha.

this one is perfect:

The hands are what I like most I think. Are there any US sellers for those links provided above?

@capa and those project watches are pretty neat- nothing that really caught my eye though.

[jewbagel]

Does anyone here have an EP Martin watch?

If so, what do you think of its quality?

[jewbagel]

Does anyone know what model Sinn this is?

[arlee]

Does anyone know what model Sinn this is?

It is a Sinn 556

[jewbagel]

What do you guys think is the best watch in terms of reliability and aesthetics for below $1,200 USD?

[revoked]

i feel like questions like that are too broad. what style do you like? sport/dress? pilot? diver?

I guess I don't quite have the watch vocabulary to narrow it that much, but I like minimalist pilot watches. I like the Bell and Ross Vintage 126, the Sinn 656, and sort of like the simpler Breitling Chronomats. On the dressier side I suppose.

Seiko SBTM127

Seiko SARB027

[willy cheesesteak]

Indeed, really liking the typeface used for the "Automatic" and the Seiko serif beneath it is always a classy touch.

Put my Rolex Air King on leather...really enjoying it for summer. I'll post pics when I get ahold of a decent camera.
