By-Tor Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I don't mean most accurate... or even your favorite. I mean the watch that always gives you the "holy sh*t" feeling when you handle it? I've seen quite a few great gens, but the SFSO SuperOcean never ceases to amaze me. It's not necessarily my favorite watch, nor the most beautiful (design wise), but it's definitely the most impressive one. Rolexes never impress anyone, gen or rep (except the Rolex enthusiasts). But all my friends who have examined the SFSO have said it's stunning. 225 grams of steel. It's a watch for the big boys and big wrists, definitely!
robertk Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I have to agree with you. Tuff choice.....With all my watches I'd have say the Steelfish is right up there. But I can't ignore this one
tmg Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 Tudor Monte Carlo is mine I think after that, it's my 201A
Guest SliceMaster Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I have to say that my Breitling Navitimer TT is my favorite, bought it after reading By-Tor:s review and I love it, thx mate!!
By-Tor Posted June 6, 2008 Author Report Posted June 6, 2008 @slicemaster: You're most welcome! I agree, it's very nice two-tone watch. Some people say that the bracelet can't match the gen feel (which is no surprise)... but on a leather strap it must be very difficult to "call out". Enjoy!
fotoman Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 steelfish, BCE/CROSSWIND and my homer Tourby with HKtan Strap - that watchlooks like a million bucks
SubFrog Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I'd have to say the Bentley gets the most "WOW"s. Everyone says it's impressive. It looks much better in real life than in the photo...it's a monster!
FxrAndy Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 Ingy followed by the fish they just both feel and look so good, both quality.
subzero1 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 HBB gets the most comments of any watch I have, and the look/feel/design is pretty darn impressive: For out and out massive hunk of steel physical presence, with fit/finish to match, the inimitable Graham Chronofighter:
Nanuq Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I mean the watch that always gives you the "holy sh*t" feeling when you handle it? I guess it would have to be the one in front. Every time I wear it I think "I do not deserve to have this on my wrist."
scoobs1971 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I get the most positive feedback on my ultimate PAM111e with K2222 AR: And not to forget my The Zigmeisterfied Link Chrono:
Stephane Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 That is real tuff one. I would expect one of my vintage Rolies. But I never have any comment when I wear them. Or people do not notice them, or they think "Another Rolex" I guess I will say the same as Nanuq though: "I don't deserve this" when I wear them. Rolies aside, the two ones that I feel being the most impressive on my wrist are these: Ingie Pam 196
b16a2 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 Although I am no longer the owner of this materpiece, I would have to say it was the Swiss HBB;
Flashman Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 For me it is my Blackbird, feels and looks amazing despite its small flaws. The SFSO is a cracking watch too.
Pix Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 Difficult, as there are many Today's mood would lead me to vote for my Breitling BB too
tmg Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I guess it would have to be the one in front. Every time I wear it I think "I do not deserve to have this on my wrist."
Chronus Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I guess it would have to be the one in front. Every time I wear it I think "I do not deserve to have this on my wrist." I agree, you should send it over to me
slai Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 pam 190. I wish...but that's the feeling I got when I tried one on. I must have one.
Sir-Lancelot Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I guess it would have to be the one in front. Every time I wear it I think "I do not deserve to have this on my wrist." You are right, give it to me. Poor thing must be freezing to death up there. I kid.
jeff g Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 The watch that most does it for me...is the MBW/MBK PP Nautilus Jumbo. 42mm x 8.5mm 20 (+) black dialed S/S sport watches in my collection, and the MBK Nautilus is the ONLY one I can wear anymore. I must say that going thru this thread a few times now ... there a lot of very beautiful watches pictured here. We are a bunch of lucky people. Wear them well.
frankt Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 Got to agree..SOSF ...best $100. I've ever spent on a rep!! Most guys spend more than that on AR and lume...!!! ;)
UB7 Posted June 7, 2008 Report Posted June 7, 2008 easy, my gen evo or skyland I also really enjoyed this CSO for the 2 months i owned it out of the 3, the skyland feels the most impressive while the evo looks the most impressive, however i much prefer the pilot bracelet on the evo to the pro2 on the skyland, both are nice but the pilot looks nicer and wears better/more comfortably..both watches also look fantastic on leather and it add's a bit of class
