Certainly could have purchased some serious watches with the cost of this but hey, the whole family enjoys this. You have a pool at home? Would love to see it. We just put this one in.

Men wearing jewellery. Where do you stand?
The other week I was watching the Formula one post race interviews and saw Lewis Hamilton wearing large diamond earrings and a gold chain so huge you could moor up a ship with it! It pained me as an English man, but I thought he looked ridiculous.
Continue readingThis got me thinking. Jenson Button, another F1 driver, was quoted once that a man should only wear 2 items of jewellery – a watch and a wedding ring. I must admit that this is a lot closer to my way of thinking but I’m a white 50 year old man…
SMP non-ac (2230.50): Post Your Mods
This watch has been on my radar for a very long time and will be holding it soon. Like many before me, I am interested in the possible mods to individualize it.
Continue readingIt’s coming with a PO 42mm crystal installed. Otherwise, it’s in stock configuration.
I would be interested in installing a PO seconds hand with the tip painted red, a black ceramic bezel and an adjustable clasp. Other than the clasp, I will enjoy it in its near-stock condition while I settle on the mods I commit to implementing…
Rifle Owners! What do you like? No Pics.
Since there’s a “favorite pistol” thread, I thought I’d start a rifle thread.
Continue readingI love me some rifles…. any kind really. I’ve got a few “modern sporting rifles” (MSR) aka “evil black rifles,” though one is green (FS2000) and another is “flat desert earth” (SCAR-16). The SCAR-16 is an awesome rifle.
My latest “kick” is long distance precision rifle shooting. “It’s like golf, but for men!” I dipped my toes in precision shooting several years ago with a custom-built AR-15…
Apart from your watch, what is your favorite accessory?
As above really?

All of us on this forum love our Sinns. My 103 and 756 are my most worn watches, yet sometimes I feel like wearing something different. Among fans of Sinn, what are the other watches you wear that you like just as much as your Sinns?
Continue readingI thought that since most of us on here have similar taste, this might give us a good idea of other watch brands / models to check out.

Fellow Sinners: what watch are you wearing today that’s not a Sinn?
What watch are you wearing today that’s not a MK II ?
Recreating a thread I enjoy following on both the Doxa and Sinn forums. (Thanks OPs!).
We love MK II watches but what else do we wear in rotation? Do MK II wearers have similar tastes in other watches? Let’s find out…

This is the full stainless steel version of the Altimeter not the lightweight less preferred carbon fiber version, which is selling for over six thousand dollars. Also comes with the stainless steel bracelet, a rarity. I’m not sure of the length of the…

My preference for chronographs is evolving again. For years it was whatever caught my eye. Then it was IWC. Then Sinn. Now I’m looking for chronographs with the minute counter at the center of the dial. Nice segue for the Sinn collection as I kept two …
