The one that got me hooked, a Sinn 103 St Sa AR:

Then came a UX, also from Sinn:

it's great for timing cooking stuff:

For the dressier outfits, I went for a Stowa Marine Automatic:

Some Tritium would be nice, i thought, and a Dievas Mesopelagic MKII from Gnomonwatches was too tempting:

I know that the latest one does not have the best rep in this forum, but it was too tempting - Ocean7 G-1 with a Pepsi Bezel:

this is the little fella I use to synch the other ones, a radio-controlled G-Shock:

Some group shots:

On the way are a Seiko Samurai and a Citizen AirDiver Eco-Drive, both with blue dials. the new Seiko Diver with the 6R15A movement is tempting, too.

Greetings from Bonn,

Christian

VERY NICE!

Tubes! Yeah Baby!

Does the G-Shock Work in Bonn? My understanding is that it 600-900 miles from Norad In CO, or from the Atomic clock transmitter in Japan. I did read that there is a new External Anntena. ( I know that it was only a Joke)

Does Europe have a Atomic Clock and transmitter?

actually, we got two of them atomic time thingies in Europe, one in Frankfurt/Germany:

and the other one in Rugby/England:

The Casio receives both of them. It's an inexpensive and rugged watch, recommended!;)

Very Cool, I Own one, it is like that but has the Analog hands. Solar, Atomic, and LED lights. It is a neat, I think that it is one watch that every WIS should own.

Now the question is who's clock do the Germans and the Brits use for Sync'ing to? :D

zat should not be ze question here ;)
the British one transmits GMT(used in Great Britain and Portugal), while the German one gives the european standard time, which is one hour ahead of GMT and used in the rest of the EU.

This looks allot like the one above in the way it is cased. Looking for a better deal though. Finding a few others that look OK too. :cool:

I've never done business with this place before though. Hmmmm...

The Dievas is a nice everyday watch, but I found out that I am quite spoiled by the UX, which was and still is my daily wearer.

Thanks to you all! hand6.gif

The collection is steadily growing, and I am already thinking of parting with both the Sammy and the AirDiver to make some room for the expected 'Angler and the new Seiko Diver...
I can resist all but temptation.

At least the 3T LE will be a keeper, that's for sure. Already ordered a BB watchadoo for that beauty.
