Stowa MO Blue
Just got this emailed from Stowa. Pretty nice looking IMO. I always liked the MO white, but the hands are a little delicate. I like the beefier hands on this one.

Like that blue....

I like this one a lot, but I prefer the Marine Original with white or silver dial and the old logo. I think it's truer to the original deck watch design.

Re: Stowa MO Blue
am I the only one that everything Stowa puts out is starting to look the same except for maybe a few minor details?

Yes, you are the only one.toxicavenger wrote:am I the only one that everything Stowa puts out is starting to look the same except for maybe a few minor details?
Seriously, this is a variant of their Marine watch so it's not surprising that it shares a lot of its attributes. If I look across the line at the Antea, Prodiver/Seatime, Fliegers, 1938 chronos etc I see the same DNA but quite a bit of variety.

They should stick to what they know. Stuff like this make me go wtf?
Looks nice.
Doesn't knock my socks off, but overall seems to work.

Re: Stowa MO Blue
That is a VERY nice Blue and the dial so elegantly simple!
Re: Stowa MO Blue
Nice...I am intrigued. I might be in for one. Did the email come with any discount attached to it, or just an announcement?

Re: Stowa MO Blue
Why did Stowa have to change its logo? The old one was awesome, the new one kept me from buying a marine automatic a few months back. That said, I like this one a lot.

Tons of discussion about that on the official Stowa forum. Very mixed reviews.dukerules wrote:Why did Stowa have to change its logo? The old one was awesome, the new one kept me from buying a marine automatic a few months back. That said, I like this one a lot.
You can still buy the MO with the old logo - at least you could a couple of months ago. It's not shown on the site but you can order via email. It's worth asking about the MA too.
Re: Stowa MO Blue
Just a heads up if anyone cares. The Stowa website allows you to pick a serial number when ordering. Looks like there are 11 left of the 200.
