Err, that ain't gaudy. It's functional.

And an engineer's dream. :D

I question the sexual orientation of any man who choses that flashy two-tone travesty of a Rolex over the technological sophistication represented by the Breitling.

Ive got an engineering degree and I still get dizzy when I look at he dial of a Brietling. Way too much going on there.

I also dont own a two-tone watch. I wear a titanium wedding band, but thats as fancy as I get. The only reason its titanium is becuase I cant find one in stainless steel.

Now where are my watch and custom gun pics.....stay tuned

Wow! Another OT watch thread!

Speaking of Sinn - here's my latest "acquisition". A Sinn Flieger with Valjoux 7750 movement and sapphire crystal. iIm wearing it all the time now. Its approx 38 x 13mm, a good size for me. I put a matching steel bracelet on mine.

Awww....c'mon man, I was hoping you'd rise to the bait and we'd get a good flamewar going. I even had a good Liberace comment ready to go. Now what am I going to do all day? Get work done? :D

The Seiko Kinetic I have is titanium--nice but dings very easily. And of course it's dead due to my bizarre electrical aura...

Longines briefly made an automatic polished titanium chrono. Their "Op(p?)osition", I think. Very nice-looking but I worried about the finish and my penchant for bashing into things.

I'd rather have the Randall than a Rolex...:)

Tom,

How much for the Sinn? Looks very nice...

A Randall (or a nice .45 auto) WITH a Rolex is even better! :)

JoeA:

I got mine lightly used off Ebay for around $1,000 with the leather strap; new it would cost around $1,450 (with the acrylic vice sapphire crystal it would be about $200-$250 less). I put a matching satin stainless steel bracelet on mine and that added another $225. I bought the Sinn bracelet off watchbuys.com.
