Well, ok, if you put it like that! ;-) ETA of November-December.

Have owned a few Sinn over the years and still have a vintage (guessing 1970s) dive watch. The one I wore most was a 756 UTC, cool tool watch with classic 7750 Valjoux automatic movement and its wobble.

The original company that did the hardened steel for Sinn in its 756 and other models had a falling out and ended up making watches on its own. A while back I caught a deal on one, basically a copy of the Sinn 756 but no UTC, in this case a white dial that is all lume and the reason I bought. Price was right and wanted to spend some time with a lume dial. Still have the watch but rarely wear it, would likely be on sell list for no fault of its own. At the time I'd say Damasko was 85-90% of the build quality of Sinn at a decently lower price point. I haven't checked recently or if still in business. Sinn keeps marching along.

I guess I am a sucker for MOP dials but am curious how black MOP will look on a PVD dive watch. At least the case dimensions look appropriate. My first truly fancy watch that I ever bought for myself is listed at the bottom, think it was 2003. Lange L1 Soiree. Not my pictures.
