Steinhart gmt

Not a bad looking "new" watch homage to the elusive white GMT. Just saw it. Not bad IMO if homage watches are interesting to you.

I'm not typically either. I just thought this was a nice looking watch on its own. Wish Rolex made one that was actually available.

I had one of these a while back.
It started a slippery slope to needing a Rolex!

I like it, which doesn't mean that I'd buy it.

I bought an Invicta Submariner homage, which convinced me that I had to have a Rolex.

Now I have four, which is indeed a slippery slope.

it's pretty attractive! not sure, though, why it's almost 2x the price of the Ocean One Vintage, and i also would have preferred that they stuck with ETA (not too familiar with Soprod).

After owning two Tudor Black Bay Blue's, I just picked up my first Steinhart as a daily beater, the Ocean One Vintage Red. I must say I'm quite impressed with the quality and I can appreciate the 42mm case size being a larger guy. It even has an ETA 2824-2 like the Black Bay

This is my vintage Orient "submariner style" dive watch. Its a good daily beater.

Same as my vintage Sandoz diver.

But if you want a classic Swiss made watch that has the same style as a Rolex 5508, then go look for a 60s Titus Calypsomatic. Its a beautiful vintage dive watch and its value is going up already. A good example can be had for $1k. Here is mine:
