What do y'all think of these? I'm quite taken actually.

Anybody got one, or know anyone who has?

[CardShark]

I'm a fan, though TBH I know little about them. The black faced model is very smart and is probably something that you're unlikely to see anyone else wearing in the wild

[M888SXY]

I keep getting tempted too.

[andy_s]

Never had one but the quality is supposed to be good. Another similar type is the Botta range - http://www.botta-design.de/en_uhrenshop.html



And the 24hr version:

[adycav]

Got to make a fantastic weekend watch where having the 'exact time' is less of an issue, would you agree?

I reckon I might push the button on one of these soon.

[CardShark]

I think that there's something very relaxed and casual about single handed watches, it's not as if anyone really needs to know the *exact* time anyway.... Who's ever had an appointment at 1:26:48pm?

[Chicken Pox]

I liked them until I realised it reminded me of the scales in the bathroom...not a happy thought! Sorry.

[PaulHogan]

I have one of these - http://defakto-uhren.de/defakto_onehandwatch_eins_... - as a weekend watch.

Ah ha! Nice. Although, I'd be mildly irritated that it didn't display a date given the movement...

I like the look of these but at 43mm and 42mm case size they would look too big on my pathetic wrists. Anyone know any other one handed models with a more modest 38mm - 40mm size?

[Gizmo!]

I love single-hand watches... and a 24-hour one is perfect!


Anyone know any others?

Oof! Y'bastid.

That UNO24 Black Edition is on the list.

Smart isn't it. Anyone know the Ronda movement? Are they good quality?

According to the 'spec' section, these two are 38mm. Plenty big enough for me too.

I've ordered the one with the brown strap.

There's one on PMWF... google it.

Thanks Adycav

This is now on top of my wants list. 38mm is perfect and I have found several black faced ones on Chrono24 which I prefer over the white. I also found this one with date as well which i rather like as well (comes in 38mm or 43mm)...

You wouldn't time an egg with it, would you?

Ostrich egg?

[ApexJimi]

Just to assure myself I'm not missing something here, the time on the above watch is 1:41, roughly...?

[Stu R]

1:46 surely?
