Switch up! Thanks Todd! Love this dial--reminds me of the steel BP Bathy.

So I had posted a couple SOTC pics at year end and commented that I was very content and might stand pat for a while, but somehow this is the third incoming of the new year. I do think I have now scratched all the itches I have that are not $$$$ so I do plan on culling a couple and then enjoying what I have for a while ( ).

126600. Quick impressions are how well balanced it is, given the size, and the nice taper of the bracelet. Cyclops likely has to go, though.

Niiiice. Congrats. I have yet to try one one (or even see one in the metal), but I have to imagine it's much more comfortable than the 116600.

So it was you! Congrats.

PS: everytime you post an incoming you talk about consolidating. And never do

In case anybody wondered where this went, saw the FS post and was wearing it 28 hours later thanks to Pat, who was awesome to deal with.

Loving it.

Awesome Rob! Enjoy!

Thanks Pat, I am and I will.

Appreciate it, Todd. Aesthetic differences might not be for everyone, but this works much better for me than the 116600. The photos exaggerate its proportions. Watchmaker was also surprised how much less upsized it is in person. We checked with calipers and underside of case is 42.5 w/o the crown. The bezel is 43mm. It’s comfortable and easy to like in person (and I was admittedly skeptical). Glad I waited but it’s worth taking the plunge. Hopefully they’ll start to appear at ADs soon.

Congrats! I like the gen 1s - used to have one. Did you get a bracelet? Worth having - if you’re a bracelet guy...

If you can handle the weight it’s one is the best watches I’ve ever owned.

Thanks, No bracelet. I’m probably going to have to see if I can track one down. This watch feels like it should be on the bracelet.

I'd like to try one one day. I finally came to grips with the reality that the 116600 was just too uncomfortable on my wrist for daily wear. Even though the 126600 is bigger, I bet those lugs and bracelet make a world of difference as far as balancing things out.

Rekindling the love.

Thanks Ben, I agree, I'm pretty smitten by this one.

It's funny, I wear watches on my left wrist. Occasionally I'll try one on my right wrist and most feel very heavy. Even my heaviest watches feel fine on my left wrist so weight's not an issue. Weird. 1/2 the time this will be on canvas so there's that, though I always liked the Sinn bracelets. With all the German engineering in these things you'd think they could design an adjustable clasp for them - then they'd be close to perfect.

Yes it certainly works on straps but has always felt proper on the bracelet in my mind/eye. Will keep an eye out for you!
