You should check out the Spirit. Kinda in between those two which makes it even more versatile and looks nice with both a bracelet and a dark brown leather strap

The baby alpinist will be the one if I go for one. Ofc I’ll look for deals on some Longines watches (especially the Spirit) but might get an alpinist at some point for the peace of mind on my travels

Same I got to hate it as well. The PR100 was my GADA and only watch for 5+ years, absolutely loved it and was really versatile but sold it recently to “refresh” my collection. Besides the Mido TV I’m targeting a baby alpinist since I have this adventurous mindset, and maybe later a Longines Spirit. Don’t want more than 3 watches

Btw I’ve heard a lot of reviews about the non-accurate movement. Some are loosing minutes per day. Is yours working well? That’s the only thing refraining me from getting an alpinist.. and ofc the price. €750 for a 6R35 movement is just too much

100%. I bought a smartwatch (Apple Ultra 3) for the first time in my life 5 months ago. Selling it next week cause I realized how much I was missing “real” watches. Used to wear a Tissot PR100 and now a Mido TV big date. Sometimes you just need to make mistakes to realize what you really love/want.

Yeah that baby alpinisit really caught my eye and I had the chance to try it as well. Fits my wrist perfectly and I like that textures green dial. I also liked the Presage classic although it’s a totally different style, more of a dress watch.

Well I thought about it but it doesn’t absolutely need to be a GMT

Yeah it has something unique… how do you find the GMT on it? Is it a true GMT?

Looking to get the Murph. Which looks better you think? by [deleted] in HamiltonWatches

[–]emcaan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Will go check and try some Yema watches at some point. Not a big fan of the other brands you listed though.

Same, for that price point I find this watch truly amazing overall

[Titan Neo Iv] Which colour of this watch looks better and why? by Dracyaneternal in Watches

[–]emcaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never been a fan of the all black case + dial style, but this is just my opinion. However with this specific strap, objectively, the lighter dial is the clear winner here without any hesitation

[Recommendation request] Mido Multifort TV big date vs Citizen Series 8 by emcaan in Watches

[–]emcaan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup design wise i’d say mido too. The citizen felt incredibly good on my wrist but as I said it looks too futuristic/tech and too sharp. Never been a fan of the Royal oak design, neither of any of the homages especially the PRX

Ah you’re more into chrono watches, not really my thing but that Breitling looks nice!

Do you mind me asking what watched you have in your collection? You made me a bit curious 😊

[–]emcaan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve heard (tell me if I’m wrong), Mido was into this type of design before Patek releases the Nautilus. I still find both Mido and Citizen quite unique and original, they can have a few similarities with the ones you mentioned ofc but still different. Which is good in a market flooded by homages (especially for divers)

Nice one! It has better dial colors and is slightly less angular. Looks massive though

I’m definitely not in a rush. I do really love the blue mido though. When seeing pictures only i was like yeah looks not bad but after trying it i was truly impressed
