So far so good. It is a heavy watch though. ShopNBC has some good prices on some of these. I think that one was $104+tax and shipping and they have it with flexpays

My latest obsession. I will own one some day! Only preventing reason is that its a 1-man show... and he does very limited runs. All hand made. Love the look of them.

Brand is Kaventsmann

Bronzo

Just ordered one of these this morning; Steinhart Nav B-Chrono 47mm on brown leather strap with polished Pre-V as were as a second black leather strap with polished Pre-V. Now the waiting begins.... I have a feeling this will feel similar to when I ordered my Aristocrat from Bob.





but with these straps:

Default Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?

Looking to buy my girlfriend an watch for her 40th in Nov, here are a couple of my picks for her. What do you think? I was kind of thinking it should be a watch that she may let me borrow. She like bigger watches, but something under 40mm would be best. Also considering a Rado, there are a few I thought would work for her.

1. Tonneau Retrograde Seconds - I like the look and I think she'll appreciate the jumping second hand.


2. Chopard : Mille Miglia Chronograph - Women love Chopard and it's a classy looking watch

I really like the Chopard, but the second hand on the first one is pretty unique.

I wonder how reliable it is? I don't want to have bring to Switzerland every other year for an adjustment. I showed her both watches and she like the Chopard more. They are both used, and could possibly sell before I am ready to buy (also considering non-watch jewelry), but there are plenty Chopards around if this one gets away. Not that many have a bracelet which is real nice.
