Anyone had experience of Tutima watches?

I am contemplating a Tutima watch similar to this....




I like the simplicity of the dial ....it's easier to read than my old Rolex Oyster.
Has anyone got one, seen one or knowledge of them.....they appear to be good value but what are they like?

O yes! Read 'check your exspensive watches' Check it before you buy. Have had two. Crap! Made in Germany means nothing anymore!

Bugger.....anyone else...?

Something not right with that watch. The minute hand is still on 3 past yet the second is halfway round and unless it was taking while moving isnt lining up......But hey I'm no expert

The minute hand just needs adjusting. Clearly not everyone can be bothered to do so properly, which they should really have done for a product shot.

Anyway - can't help that much with Tutima except that they are well know for more military style watches & seem to have a good rep from what I've heard.
If you like that style do also check out Sinn & Stowa as two other reasonably priced German makes.

I've had an FX cronograph for about 8+ years now and it has been faultless. Can't praise it enough. The only thing I would say, is that it is easy to chip the crystal around the edge as it protrudes slighlty above the bezel.
