asf Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 looks cool but I dont like the way the strap connects to the case. a bit too oldschool for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEKS Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 their ads come up alongside these and other boards for me all the time. I've been through the site extensively and like their watches. They have the Tyndall and the Stinson. For $1k, about the cost of a modded high end rep, you can get a Calilfornia designed gen watch, and no one else around you will have one. - J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Fleischer Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Not bad- but most forum guys want 44mm or bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HartDoc Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Not bad but for that price/style. I'll get a used Nomos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I really like the layout of the dial, but I feel the strap looks a little narrow where it connects to the case... Maybe if it had lugs Nice watch though, and I like how the brand logo is positioned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxman Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Not bad really but I like my watches a little bigger. Not that there Is anything wrong with a 40mm,was the norm not long ago. I also like traditional lugs. But I agree,kind of Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjagaiden Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Looks like an Alessi watch, only a lot more expensive. Coming from the UK, if you like gen swiss manufacture without the swiss prices, would you consider a Christopher Ward? Very keenly priced with COSC watch costing around £600.
