Mike on a bike Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Well been going back and forth looking at everything from Tudor to Sinn and just about everything else...............Like most of you I spend my time looking at watches on line, reading reviews, watching vids on youtube all this while sitting surrounded by watches, a few I can't find most disturbing. Now as most know despite my massive wrist size I prefer smaller watches, lighter the better and the the dial on this is just stunning. So I bought yet another! Happen to be sober only one beer so kinda strange , but I digress let's look at it............. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike on a bike Posted August 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 The Sinn http://www.watchbuys.com/store/pc/Sinn-856-A-B-Tegimented-on-Bracelet-18p4324.htm Tudor: https://www.tudorwatch.com/watches/new-black-bay-fifty-eight/m79030n-0001 this one sill on the buy list funds allowing....................... & https://www.tudorwatch.com/watches/new-1926/m91650-0002 looked at many more but these were in the final running except for the Tudor 58 which was wanted but way over budget. Keep in mind the Seiko about 1000 less that the other two and it's build quality is as good as if not better of course the Sinn is a tank but really not necessary for my life activities.

daovto Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Love the 58 that has to be my favourite of the modern Tudor... I would love to try a Sinn... but the UX - and may get a loan on one in a few weeks The Sinn http://www.watchbuys.com/store/pc/Sinn-856-A-B-Tegimented-on-Bracelet-18p4324.htm Tudor: https://www.tudorwatch.com/watches/new-black-bay-fifty-eight/m79030n-0001 this one sill on the buy list funds allowing....................... & https://www.tudorwatch.com/watches/new-1926/m91650-0002 looked at many more but these were in the final running except for the Tudor 58 which was wanted but way over budget.

Mike on a bike Posted August 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 Well guys watch in yesterday was able to get it on and closed but to tight on my wrist, what else is new! I did however foresee this and had two extra links shipped w/ the watch. Of course they ain't for free 50 bucks a piece but other sellers wanted 100 or more so Gnomon Watch was not ripping me off like others were trying to. Good outfit: http://www.gnomonwatches.com/ Now we all know my pics suck so it looks like the vid no sense me making it look terrible!! As far as fit finish feel on all excellent , light just the right size and what crystal it not there.......as to the dial well it's stunning to say the least.

capice Posted August 17, 2018 Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 Great dail Mike,......simple yet elegant, a little small though...😉 I also love the SGDM003, despite I have almost only black dails, this creamy sunburst does it really.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted August 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 40.8 x 11 not small just not overstated, less is sometimes more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornerstone Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Seiko are great. Not a hardlex fan on many models (not this one I believe), but love my 'Jungle Master'. Enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted August 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Cornerstone, yes sapphire w AR but no blue just like it's not there. Capice w/ no bezel to speak of all dial it wears larger than the numbers would suggest, I will try to get a decent pic on my 8.35 inch wrist so you guys can see scale.

capice Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 now that is a big wrist....but yeah, all dail and barely no bezel, it looks awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
