Good evening folks. I’ve had my Ocean One Vintage Red for about a month. I have no idea if it’s an ETA 2824-2 or the SW 200, élaboré movement. But either way, I am new to Steinhart and am curious how often you wind yours. I havnt been, due to posti…

Hey guys, I tried searching for the answer but couldn’t find anything but if this has already been asked and answered feel free to point me to that post. Has anyone had their automatic Steinhart serviced here in the states (preferably on the west coast, I live in eastern Washington)? Or know of anyone reputable who can service my watch?
Continue readingI went swimming with my Steinhart Aviation (just on the surface of a lake) and a little moisture must have gotten in to the watch b/c over the next few…
Ocean One Vintage Chronograph arrived yesterday
I owned one years ago and regret selling it. I was offered a Black Dial in January and posted here for recommendations. I ended up holding out for the much more desirable white dial. I was extremely lucky to find one. And at a reasonable price. I could…
Continue readingDO NOT buy an Ocean One…it distorts your watch reality!
So about a year ago, after my recent divorce, since I didn't have a wife around to buy me a nice Christmas present, I decided to buy my first automatic watch- a Steinhart Ocean One black with ceramic bezel. When I got the watch, I was amazed at ho…

Some years ago I owned the white (cream) dial with black sub-dials Panda model. Undoubtedly the more desirable one, but they seem quite rare to find these days. I already own many much more expensive watches and need it like a hole in the head. However…

First, I love my OVM. I also love the bracelet–I haven’t had an oyster bracelet in years and I can’t believe how comfortable this one is.
Continue readingThat being said, I lost one of the threaded pins a month or so ago, and needed to order a replacement from Steinhart (no issues, 2 replacements arrived without trouble for an acceptable price.)
A couple weeks ago the watch fell off again, but I was lucky enough to find the pin in my jacket pocket, so I put it back together and wore it again, but…
Steinhart Ocean One Vintage (Type I) Chronograph Black
I have the chance to purchase one of these.
Can anyone tell me the differences with the current model (type II) ?
the movements of the Type I seems to be a ETA2824-2 Top grade + DD2020 module how does that fare against the LJ7772 Top Premium?
What a…

After registering a couple a years ago on three Rolex AD funny waitlists for a Batman GMT and a steel/rose GMT II and a Yachtmaster and after funny Rolex AD stories I became a huge Steinhart fan. First as kind of a protest then for life…

I've been thinking of starting a Steinhart "Ocean Owners Club" for a while, and before I write Gunter, I thought I should see if there is any interest here. I would get the case-back graphics and make up something similar to the "Bl…

This watch is clearly an homage to the Paul Newman’s Daytona I that is absolutely clear!
Continue readingPaul Newman had several and he wore them with both bracelets and straps but more often than not he used a ” Bund” strap .
Do you think this is the most appropriate combination for a watch like this? The bracelet is certainly very goo but is this watch more ” elegant” with leather?
