Very different options, like them all. Opted for the classical elegance of the Oris, rather than the brutal beauty of the Sinn because the Sinn could get a bit "visually tiring" if that makes sense ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคฃ

556 is made to take some punishment whilst the big crown is arguably more elegant/dressy. As your sports watch will it get punished?

On that note, Iโ€™ve changed my vote from Sinn to Oris. Big Crown is a great watch with its own character.

If you want a watch with an objectively good OEM bracelet maybe check out Formex or Mido. The opinions about the clasp on the 556โ€˜s bracelet are quite divided, although the bracelet looks nice and feels okay to me. The BCPD looks best on a leather strap imho, for me that would be more of a dress watch

Would love to but they are not available in my country and import taxes double the price ๐Ÿ™

556i is on my radar... I am really thinking about the black mother of pearl, but would need to see one in person before pulling the trigger...

Although I'm not discounting the other watches as fantastic choices, the Landmaster is a stunning watch and has to been seen in the flesh to be truly appreciated. The dial and case are beautiful and the ar is the best I've seen. Plus it has a slightly superior movement imo. .....and I'm biased. But you ain't gonna go wrong with any of these

Bought the red seiko instead but cant take my mind off of it ๐Ÿ˜…

I really like the Sinn. Sinn has somehow made a black dial and white hands their own ๐Ÿ‘

I would go with the Ors Big Crown Pointer Date. Love the date complication and these watches look outstanding. They have SO many great variations.

I would go oris. Such a beutiful design and a great brand.
