Stirling Timepieces

Anyone familiar with these?

We did an Upham unit watch with them.

Really nice guys and the watches are decent quality for the price we paid.

Look in the 2026 watch check thread, someone posted themselves wearing one today/yesterday I think.

Edit: mickyc79 yesterday at 14:31 but now I've gone back to it, it was just my poor memory, almost a Stirling!

It's spelt Stuhrling.

Here's mine. It's a Caballeta 3969 model/



Had it maybe 6 months, no issues.

They're different brands. Here's one of the watches from the brand in question:



I've seen/handled one. I think it's a fairly nice watch though pretty derivative and maybe overpriced by £100-£200. There are comparable watches from other brands for less and at the nearly £500 this costs you could be looking at something like an entry Hamilton, decent Seiko or a genuinely nice Microbrand model. Even some Christopher Ward three handers can be had for this, and to be honest they're at a far higher level.

That being said watches shouldn't be broken down to mere specs. The field look has appeal and I believe they support some forces charities so if you like it I'd say go for it.

ETA: The bracelet is an extra £100 so £525 all in, unless you're happy with a strap.

Thank you all! Good to know they're decent.

Reason for asking is my old unit's doing a watch with them...

In that case you'll likely get a good deal, and it'll be very personal to you. Definitely worth a buy i reckon.

They also did one for my unit but it was black on black with black lume, and to me it just seemed barely legible. My unit also did one with Bremont, but think that was about £4k. Yikes.

Hope it works out, post up if you go ahead with the buy!

I have a Sturling. It's one of those that have a comedy MSRP of around £1000, and yet you can always buy one brand new for about £150.
