Steinhart Bronzo?

Ya, I'm not a fan of that Steiny, but I do love the brand.

 

I wanted something different than the 382, but it needed to be 47mm and CuSn8, not Al bronze (Al patinas to a dark, almost DLC color, which I dislike - Olivier and cheaper Ancons)

so I decided on the Ancon Tank. I LOVE the Helsons with the ETAs but they are too small for my liking.

 

I got a great deal on my Tank and I love it

Just had been looking into the Ancon and reading about the Olivier yesterday too... Than found this Retrowerk for EUR 269,- with the Myota and 205,- in Quartz but it seems its just bronze plated SS http://www.watchstore24.de/product_info.php?products_id=832

Mike, those Helsons and Zentons are just amazing, but anything over 50mm case length is sadly too much wrist presence for me.

 

And it's sad too, because the pricing on some of those Zenton divers was not unreasonable for the specs.
