Please share your Cyma and Vertex watches in the comments 😁
I picked the Cyma. 37 mm case sizes were rare in that era, most watches were under 35 mm.

I've also selected Cyma because of the size and the rarity of the model.

Cyma has the better case, my choice literally boils down to that as I find both are superb. I have handled both, and I’ve nearly pulled the trigger on a Cyma back in the day.
Vertex must win this one. 🤞
Not sure of Cyma, truthfully I havent heard of them. Leaning towards vertex for the history and the british brand!
I’m going Vertex. Mostly because I want the new 36 model coming out soon, D-Day.✌🏻

I think that's the reason many people voting for vertex 🤔

Great one to have Rusty
As a collector of vintage watches for over 30 years, having owned quite a few chromed WWII watches (as steel was scarce), I would definitely choose the Cyma. Have wanted one for years. Chrome over base metal/brass does NOT hold up well. And the larger size is cool.
Vertex is so dang awesome and well spec'd, so it gets my vote even if prefer if it came in a smaller case size.

Great insight TJ 💯 😁

Vertex's modern offering is quite impressive
Vertex, wasn't aware that Cyma did a modern version. What's the price on it?

Vertex's modern homage is around £2,500
This was a tough one. I went with Vertex. My deciding factor is the 15 second markers in the sub dial. It's all about legibility. Also, I would love to have the reissue 😁

Correct Ryan 😄
I wish i knew more of the history of dirty dozen watches because that would be a big factory in my vote.

Yes I was wondering about the Cyma, can't seem to find a modern version.

They are making some watches but not these ones.

By the end of these championship you'll learn more 🤗 on my previous poll there was very interesting comment by Chris educating everyone about the dirty dozen you can check that.
I’m going for cyma. Nice case size
