Ever wanted to wear German submarine steel on your wrist? Or an 50bar rated dive watch that's merely 12.3mm thick? If not, Sinn is not for you.
The bastards at Sinn finally let go of that ridiculous penis hand of the U range. The T range is just perfect, they make it exceedingly hard for me not to get one.
It pains me to say, but it's a Garmin Epix Pro. I try to wear my Omega PO as much as I can and prefer the feeling it gives, but the lots and lots of functions and convenience of a sports watch makes me grab it often.
I think I'd get a Seiko Prospex LX dive watch. Spring drive, top shelf quality, indestructible, without the obnoxious Grand Seiko or Swiss branding.
I had the black one, 41mm. It was an amazingly versatile watch. Good for work, courtroom, swimming, you name it. Kept great time and had generous power reserve.
It is worthwhile to reserve the bracelet for formal occasions, a nice black rubber strap adds comfort.
Sold it because upgraded to Omega, otherwise I'd still have it.
What I consider affordable (as in doesn't give me pause to buy it) is just creeping up and up. Nowadays it's around €2,000, but also consider that I have a rule of only one watch purchase per calendar year, and I'm sticking to it now for the third year in a row.
Here. I'm losing interest big time. I have great watches and don't want to spend more for another one to sit in a box. I should probably unsubscribe.
