What watch have you been obsessing about today?

[SickFish]

Thought this might be a good thread to keep running as I find myself obsessing over different watches each day, reading reviews, looking at pictures etc etc.

Today I have been looking at Scubapro 500 dive watches (not NOS) after seeing Andy's 70's vintage diver thread

Originals come up few and far between, although I am watching one on Ebay and if it doesn't go to silly £££ I will be throwing in a few bids.

It looks great on the shark mesh strap too

I'd be interested to hear what watch/es you are obsessing about today? I don't care if its a £50.00 beater or swooning over a £XXX,XXX Rolex/ PP etc

Current fad for me is world time complications, especially the Patel 5131.



I want a little picture of the world on my wrist.

For a little while now I've been 'obsessing about' (too strong a term, but intrigued by, certainly) the Sinn 144 ti.

My most recent fascinations have been these two versions of the Junghans Meister Telemeter

I think they are about 80k which is a little expensive.....I would love to own a 5130...... Perhaps if I'm a good boy I might get one for my birthday ........they are only 30k

Aaaah , but was it too huuuge ? (Serious question BTW)

[Quinny]

Not just today... I've been lusting after one of these for months now

Need to sell a few to justify it though...

I've got one of these and it's big enough so that on certain coats it stretches the cuff enough that I can't easily see the time. Otherwise I really like it, very substantial and tough feeling and it's my usual weekend watch.

[Mr Fix It]

One of these....




And greedy me, one of these as well....

Junghans Meister Chronoscope.

I'm going to slowly sell off half my collection and if I still want one at the end I'll treat myself to one.
