Love that the U1P was on the list. Incredible piece.

I really want to try the Seiko- but I wish it was under 3k.

Of course Chris, written by one of our own Jason H...I tried on the B & R and it wore like a 44MM. Love the Panerai but hate the $8700 price tag..That Rado is kind of cool..Owned the Bremont for a month and returned it twice--bezel misaligned-drove me nuts

I dig that Bremont. When I watch recon’d the model your sale popped up. I never knew you had one.

That's a great list from Jason. The U1P is amazing, and hasn't gotten enough love IMO. I'm also a huge fan of the Black Lung. Wish I could've made the 62MAS reissue onto my wrist. And the TT Mil-Spec is so good.

I like the PAM as well!

There goes that fucking Jason again, with his exquisite taste, actual real-world dive experience, and solid writing chops.

This. Great list.

I tried on the tiny PAM Sub yesterday. It was tiny.

They keep missing the obvious. A 44mm 305 would be just perfect.

Yes. Although...I tried on the new, slimmer 1305 too. It was huge (even on me!) but was surprisingly comfortable. I was about 90% of the way there. A 44-45 version would have made the sale.

Being honest, I’m still thinking about that 1305.

Also tried on the JLC Deep Sea chrono. What a beautiful watch! I had visions of it on nato. My price was pretty close to the 1305, but I worry a bit about JLC being a bit delicate.

Deep sea chrono is plenty tuff. I've put mine through all kinds of shit

Good to know, thanks.

The Sinn, Rolex, Doxa and Seiko are checked off the list. The Seiko just landed.

Congrats. I think the Seiko is my fave closely followed by the Sinn

Great stuff.
Hate the Citizen but like all others though I don’t wear square watches so the B&R would be out for me.

I agree with you on the Citizen. Case is pointlessly big with a small recessed dial that is not easy to read on an angle.

Well done Chris!!

Wait, are you okay with being referred to as a FL Cop? I thought you were a NYC cop??!

[gwells]

"was" a NYC cop, "is" a FL cop.

NYC cop at heart. The Florida cops never let me forget.

Jealous.
