The Dive Watch Connection

Maybe just me, but I'm not sure we need any more blasted Sinns, particularly not one of their non-divers. I think this watch would look great all-brushed, though.

Jason wins!

He's a great guy in my experience. I could see how cranking out straps for years on end would leave me unfulfilled and wanting something more. Best of luck to him.

Ehh, different cars. Your Shelby is undoubtedly an engaging and a great weekend fun car. But you're not going to commute five days a week in it, in any and all weather conditions, like your uncle can in that 4S. The 911, like a bunch of other modern GT/sports cars, is a brilliant one-car solution--d...

Nah. I wish. That’s my friend’s original Mitsukoshi. And his incredibly cool GT3.

Agree. Love them.

That looks awesome. I generally don’t like modern-looking dive watches, such as the U1, on leather, but the U1P really works on dark leather. Love mine on a Chronissimo.

Ok. The Elacs sound wonderful. I don’t have much to compare them to, but they are warm and yet clear. Love the Modi 3, too. I can stream hi res Amazon music from my iPhone with a $40 cable, and bypass the need for a dedicated streamer or a laptop. Amazon HD seems great thus far as well.

Ugh I’ve been super busy. Just unboxed them today. Will set everything up this weekend. They are going in a medium-sized living room with an open floor plan.

Any feedback from anyone on Amazon Music HD?

OK, decided after doing some more research to go with Elac B6.2s instead of the HDP6s. Also bought a Modi 3 DAC. Will start by streaming from my MacBook, and also bought a couple of cables to see how my iPhone 7 works as a streamer. Excited to try the new Amazon Music HD service that was just releas...

Killer lineup! So, which is your favorite?

OK, this thread just cost me about $600. But I'm excited. Nice! What did you order? Same setup as you. An A-9110 and a pair of the HDP6s (the Drop deal was incredible on those). Bought a BT receiver as well, and am going to see how streaming high bitrate music over BT works out. Will probably need ...

The Swatches and calculator watches I had as a kid are long gone. I still have my first grownup watch, a quartz Citizen chronograph I bought in 1996. And of course I still have my first big boy watch, the 16600 I bought in 2008. Which by the way is still the best watch I have ever bought.

Was there last summer. Hadn't been since I was a kid. Canadian side was cool; US side kind of a dump. And I wasn't enamored with Buffalo. Anchor Bar was a letdown IMO. The Falls themselves are incredible. Took my U1P and it was up to the Maid of the Mist challenge.

Anyone have a suggestion on a budget amp with Wi-Fi/BT connectivity?

Love this one!

Yep, looks incredible. Nice pickup, Rob!

The 156 is gone? Man, I miss that watch.

That is awesome. I would love to see a shot of your Sinn collection, Jay.

Love the original NSX. Now that's a timeless design. Special cars. Watch the values start exploding.

Comment by a guy this morning: "It looks incredibly Japanese. Not that that's a bad thing." Sums it up for me. I kinda want one, but it would be nicer with more classic styling, fewer fake vents, and an MT.

Saw a new Supra in person today. It's nice, just not $50K nice IMO. I also am not sure the styling is going to date that well.

Killer piece. Jealous!
