My German contingent...

Archimede 1950-3

I love the sterile dial on this. I started out collecting vintage gold dress watches in a very similar style (though a good deal smaller), and this really reminds me of those early pieces. 

Junghans max bill Chronoscope

My first 'proper' watch and only ever grail. I used to regularly go and stare at this in the window of a small jewellers in Victoria, London. I couldn't imagine spending so much on a watch in those days (I had a Citizen Ecodrive then, I think), but managed to get a huge discount (around 30%) from a tiny AD when passing through Frankfurt on holiday. Love this!

Stowa Marine 36 Romain

My last (?) purchase. Small, thin and beautifully formed with a buttery smooth, nicely decorated hand-winding movement, enamel (esque) polished dial and glorious blued hands. I wear this when attending sophisticated social engagements... 😉

Sinn U50 T

My harder than nails beater watch. I love this on the bracelet, on red rubber, on green para canvas, on camo nato etc etc. I strap this on whenever I'm doing anything even vaguely physical. The only danger with this watch is that I'll smack my thumb with a hammer because I'm too busy staring at my wrist to pay attention to what I'm doing.

Love the Sinn and your Archimede. I have a thing for German watches, 2 Sinn’s, a Damasko, a Dievas and a Aristo field watch. I could have all German watches in my collection and I’d be a happy man 💯

Classic Sinn and I really appreciate your love for Stowa. The dial and hands are just beautifu... I’ve been close to snagging this one many times.

That blue dial is awesome! That's a limited edition of 200, I think?

There’s 400 of them, still very limited though
