what do u guys know about....
this brand?
Saw this on TZ sales corner and for some reason I keep on going back to it. i have an itch for a new watch and I kinda like this one. And the price is low enough as well. While I have seen a lot of Muhle Glashutte watches in the past I have never bothered to research it. Thanks!

I believe they started out making mechanical tools and measuring instruments.And started making watches and marine chronometers etc in the90s quite a small German company. But believe they just use ETA movements,and do some modifications and decoration.But they are like many other good brands out there today, I like some of there pilot style watches and the one in picture.

Thanks Padi.
The watch in the pic is powered by ETA2824, and those are pics of the actual watch. For less than 500USD, I almost want to pull the trigger.

Well for that money you cannot go wrong,I believe Walter Fricker makes the cases for Muhle Glashutte he is one of the best case makers in the world today.He was responsible for the case for Eddie Platts Dreadnought diving watch, and many other mid/high end watches.

Comatox - I would say go for it. It's a kick-ass watch at a great price. When I first saw th pix I thought it would be ca. $2,500. Larry.
