Watches - another OCD problem

[Pomito]

Yep, the layout is classical. And I love the patina of the watch dial. I had the movement refurbished a few years ago but made sure the watchmaker did not touch the look.

Excellent decision.  Is it a Venus movement?  Those will run forever with just a minimum amount of care.

[Pomito]

Honestly, I do not know. According to my watchmaker it is not very sophisticated but reliable - so he paraphrased your post

Damn the Ipad camera sucks!

[Chris]

Ipad is underwhelming in general, in my opinion.

Nice watches, though.  I especially like the Thomas Ninchritz, which is surprising, since I'm not normally into regulateurs.

OOOOHH Ennebi Fondale! That's one of my dream watches, been lusting for one since I first saw it. Very nice good sir!

Here's my Benarus Sea Devil on a OD Zulu. Very comfy!¨

Picked up a G-shock GWM5600. My Seiko is picking up chips and what not.

Old school, nice.

[jacoavlu]

like the gshock
I have a similar
anything more is just jewelry

promise pics…

…not that there's anything wrong with a nicer watch

someday, I dream of a GMT-Master II...

Thinking of taking the plunge and getting myself a decent watch for my 'gulp' 40th.
I don't have much experience with watches (got a sturdy silver metal G-Shock right now…love it) and am looking at spending no
more than 1000-1200 euros. Ideally i'd like something solid (don't want a primadonna watch that scratches easy)
and that looks good with tan leather, silver and rubber straps.
I've seen the Sinn U1, the Steinhart Triton Black (sold out goddam it!) and the Marathon GSAR so far.
Anyone care to point me in the direction of any other worthy contenders?
Would really appreciate the help.
Thanks

I'm 40 this year as well, perhaps I should do the same…

my favorite of my many watches.  I used to be addicted to watches but lately my tastes have switched more towards Iron Heart and similar things that drain my bank account

Got this official Casio strap for my gw5600:
