What watch do you wear?

Replacement ceramic bezel arrived today, you can see the original one on the right where the lume isn't as heavy on the zero numbers especially on 20, 40 and 50. The new one is how it should be and how I've seen every other blue Tropik in online photos. As usual I just had a lemon bezel.
All sorted now though
Bracelet is out in a few weeks time, bargain at $70~

Like the retro dashboard look. How much are they?

We all pray that one day you'll be happy with your watches

I've found myself back in this thread again, I think I have another itch that I need to scratch. I'm looking to get something a little more special than the others in my collection, something in the £300-£400 range and Swiss made, something that will look good in a suit but can also be worn casual. I'm leaning towards yet another diver, Steinhart do have some good offerings.
Hmm! The search is on!

Just ordered a new watch - for £3.75 thought - Why not !
Think it's to big for my skinny wrist but might fit round my neck.

At that price what if it's just a sticker of a watch dial

Which have you been looking at from Steinhart? The quality vs cost is exceptional from them. I have a couple that I've picked up since selling my sub.

I quite like the look of some of the Pilot watches from Steinhart.

I have my eyes on two Steinharts at the moment.
The Ocean Vintage Military is quite appealing and I think it could work quite well with formal wear. The natural yellow-ish lume colour I find is a little like Marmite though, I can't quite make up my mind if I would be happy with it.
Then there's the Ocean 1 Vintage Red. Which I have been eyeing up on and off for the last 8 months or so. It's a safer bet for dress wear.
I would really like the Ocean 1 Black if the cyclops wasn't there!
That's very nice! I don't think it's possible to dress it down though for casual wear. I think for my first Swiss movement watch it would be nice to have a watch which is flexible with the environments/occasions that it can be worn in. It's a beautiful looking watch though, the classic design reminds me of my Orient Bambino, obviously this Tissot is in another class. If I was going for a 100% dress wear watch I'd find it very hard to resist!
