Must spread Brane but that is brilliant. Loved the process and the outcome. Would love to be the proud owner of both the process and a watch like that.

I really like the Junghans watch up there, so simple and classy.

Can anyone recommend some other watches with a simple, Bauhaus-ish design?

best bet would be watch forums and see if anyone is selling theirs other than that maybe yahoo auctions but probably will be hard to find either way since the blue spark was very popular

My friend's father actually just gave me a Swiss Army Renegade the other day, pretty sweet

Probably an older era-run because it has a magnifier in the date portion, as the newer ones dont. It's pretty beat up as well.

not my picture but this is what I just picked up kind of randomly.

Bell&Ross Type Demineur aka bomb squad watch.

Apparently based off of the old Sinn 810.

Looks just like a Sinn, down to the bracelet.

some of these look pretty good, but they fall into that category of watches that i never consider buying.

they're too expensive to be cheap and too cheap to be any good, does this make sense to anyone else?lol

anyone have any actual feedback on these?

never handled one before but they are German made with Swiss movements (ronda quartzs and ETA for autos) and have sapphire glass.

I'd say you are paying a bit more for what the watch is but its probably due to the design aspects of the watch

thoughts on this watch?

I've never been a fan of the Millenary line. What do you like about it?

What do you think of Ulysse Nardin or Glashütte Original? They have interesting watches for around the same price as the AP you're looking at.

[dizzhizz]

dismal would sell his soul for a GO. At least I would.

[drgitlin]

It's been a while since i posted in this thread.

Tend to wear this one every day - DA36 on a Maratac Elite:

Finally got a strap I like for the Datora:

And was handed down this IWC doppelchrono - I've just put it on a Bond strap:

I know it's cheesy but I've been fighting the urge to buy a Steinhart Black Ocean with the vintage red face. For less than $400 it'll make a great holiday watch.

[Happy Hooligan]

I love that IWC... if you ever want to sell it, let me know!

My two favorite watches on one page... joy.

[Ryan]

+ repped. and get the steinhart

[arlee]

same I agree get the Steinhart great bang for the buck and that Damasko on the Elite looks great

[eddyz]

got my hand on the left one

got too much black strap watches, anyone know where i can get a tan orange/dirty orange coloured strap for a cheap price?

It shouldn't. Can't tell you why this is happening but I can tell you that if you're trying to jog with a watch you should invest in something a little lighter. Sounds like it's gotta be distracting...

the band or back case has to not be 100% stainless...

As to the weight, yes I should get something lighter, but I really don't notice it.

I don't have the chrono feature, but do have the divers air dial so I can tell how long I've been running.

[ericdw]

that's an often faked seiko. maybe you got a knock off?
