commented on BB54 vs. RANGER? (Continuing Compulsive Collecting) ·

The bb54 is seriously amazing for the price. I sold a 1966 5513 Rolex and feel like my BB54 totally scratches the vintage itch. The sizing looks great too btw. Doesn’t wear small at all.

My favorite parts about it are the amazing adjustable bracelet, vintage styling, accuracy and dial color

You didn’t miss out on much. I sold mine pretty quickly as it was pretty boring. Many models trade for close to or below retail now anyways so…don’t worry. Just wait.

Congrats. Agreed that nobody really makes a tool watch as good as Sinn.

The regimented option is totally worth it. Basically doesn’t scratch
