What's on your wrist today

Snow appropriate watch.

It looks like you wear your straps pretty tight! Always one of those things that has kept me from wearing a watch regularly — tight so it doesn’t flop around, or just a bit less for comfort but then the watch moves around (always towards the outside of my wrist) making it a little less comfortable. My new strap is a wee bit tight to affect the former. Since I will probably only wear as jewelry (not for every day) it seems OK on the snug side.

How do others wear ‘em… loose or snug?
 
Bob I typically wear my watches a little snug but with winter weight gain now a little too snug. I hate a floppy watch that rotates the face around my wrist. Thanks for the comment.

One of the nice things about the Rolex GMT bracelet--it can be relieved about 1/2 link while wearing when flying (or during a pandemic) to relieve pressure.
 
Today I'm wearing the best mechanical watch I've ever used and the best watch I've ever owned, my Sinn EZM 3. This dive watch has an inert gas atmosphere to keep the internal atmosphere dry and free from moisture, and to keep it from fogging up in cold water on dives. It also has a copper sulfate capsule also used to absorb any water molecules that may gain ingress to the interior of the case. 500M depth rating.

Designed for the German GSG 9 Special Forces Dive Unit. Those guys know how to "operate".

This bad boy runs to +1 sec/day, regardless how often I wear it, well within COSC specification.

I've coined a tagline for Sinn....

It's a nice feature, but not exclusive to Rolex. All my bracelets have a micro-adjust feature that provides this type of small adjustment.
 
All EZMs are...totally badass! 😜

Seriously, virtually no other watch manufacturer has the tech that Sinn has.

For example, no one else makes watches out of tegimented...submarine steel.

glad my pool is not that deep !!!

Sinn has got it...goin' on. For example, this EZM, the EZM12 that was designed for medical rescue team professionals. The 4-bladed rotor lets them quickly get an accurate pulse on the patient being rescued.

From Sinn:


The Sinn EZM 12 is designed for medical professionals, particularly those involved in emergency medicine.

This watch takes it place among Sinn's EZM Mission Timer Watches (Einsatzzeitmesser) which are designed for the German Special Forces, including SWAT, Customs, FBI, helicopter police, GSG9 and other elite units.

If you've traveled in Germany you know about the autobahn, which in many parts of the country allows for unlimited speed. Although this unlimited speed is an adrenaline rush, it can unfortunately lead to very serious accidents.

German Air Rescue Team
To create this watch, Sinn collaborated with the German Air Rescue Team, which maintains a presence throughout the country. This elite team flies helicopters staffed with doctors and medics who are on 24 hour standby for car accidents.


Sinn just doesn't...f**k around.
