I just got a raise and have decided to celebrate a little bit with......A WATCH! Any recommendations in the up to $1500 range? Right now I am thinking: Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon, Fortis B-42, Sinn 656, Breitling Colt Auto, or Doxa Divingstar. All advice is welcome. Last edited on Thu May 11th, 2006 05:20 pm by Foster |

Cool review! Looks like it might be a bit tough to find a Divingstar. I do love a challenge.

The Doxa Divestar is beautiful, but if I were to buy a watch in that price range at this time, I would go for the Breitling COLT GMT Automatic (.............and I'm not even a Breitling "kinda guy") :dude:

Since I am a purveyor of Russian watches, I would be remiss if I didn't suggest this 42mm gold-plated Buran equipped with a Valjoux 7751 with sapphire crystals front and back.![]() ![]()

That Buran has been on an off my radar screen for quite a while. What a beautiful watch. Last edited on Fri May 12th, 2006 07:39 am by Foster |

I vote for the Sinn, probably a bit more versitile, looks wise, but you've got a hard choice ahead of you! Congrats :dude:
