The only brands that really rival Sinn are Oris and Nomos. Longines too but you don’t get very far in that brand with 1500.

While Oris and Nomos can rival Sinn, I don’t think there’s a point in trading those with what you have here. Consider saving money and trade up to like Tudor, IWC or similar brands.

a light used Aqua Terra is pretty much top pick across the board. IWC Mark is also nice.

You must really like bubble indices.

yo if the Saxonia can be had for 12k I dont want it. How beat up does it have to be for the owner to go aiight… this usually goes for like 16k and up but this one I own… man, lets see if anyone will bite at 12…

A colored dial. Oris Aquis, PRX or the Citizen NJ series could be pretty cool.

yeah but I mean…if you look at the moon on OG Blancpain… is that face really better tho…

I’m a dress watch guy and no, not sweat pants. But that’s not casual attire. That’s SPORTY attire.

In the real casual attire setting, namely T-shirt and all variations of jeans, chino pants or even short chino pants, perhaps even with a jacket or a hoodie, dress watches feel at home.

That’s the whole reason why Danial Wellington blew up. Even guys can wear them, all because they actually look good in leather with casual outfit.

winders dont protect your watches. They protect you from having to wind them and adjust them every time the watches stop.

No screenshot no nothing? You gonna make us watch the movie first?

Nomos Orion would be good enough, a modern twist.

How the hell is Zenith overpriced…

Should belong with the consistently great and innovative category.

When you are poor, there is no need for justification. PD is so low on the chart there are no other option that can compare.

Brand name is not a feature. Your answer is invalid.

For me it would be the lugs. Lug-to-lug size is crucial because my wrist is thin, but lug shape also matters a lot. The fat and convex lugs from “turtle watches” are 100% no-go for me. Most thick lugs are no good, straight and pencil-thin lugs are also not optimal (Nomos Ludwig or even some Breguet)

For me personally it is 3 folds.

1. it is guaranteed to “go bad” and need adjustments every 2 months, sometimes less than that
2. you can’t even set it whenever you want. You need to adjust past 3am first and before that, you need to figure out the am/pm on your watch. It’s annoying
3. because of #2, you can’t just go straight to adjusting the date and call it a day. You always need to make sure the am/pm is correct. It is always a 2 step process, never 1

All these combined with the fact that I’m quite “date-sensitive” means that I don’t need the date that much. I need it the most at work and I have my work computer for that, and when I’m off work, I would remember what date it was while I was working just a few hours ago and know without having looking at my watch.

The fact that most modern dress watches have date annoys me.

It can send Morse Codes through time and space and shit.

If it’s good enough for Cooper, it’s good enough for me.

Probably Aqua Terra blue. IWC mark 20 is nice, but its not as versatile.

SHHHHHH!!! Nuh Uh. Cut this out now!!!
