Thanks for the link to an incredibly interesting clip! I was actually most impressed with the Bell & Ross, not only for looks, but for the fact it has a depth rate of 11,100m. Cheers, Carl |

Cheers, Carl Me too. I had never heard of that model until I saw the clip. My only problem is that it looks too much like a Submariner. If its a larger size though, I guess thats not such a bad thing. |

Yes - saw this, shame it wasn't a bit more in depth. The winner was a bit "un gadgety" Interesting tho' and good to see that the mighty 'Ling is up amongst the top brands - in Suzy Perry's eyes anyway!

So THAT'S what the antenna on my Emergency would look like if I used it... I thought the B&R Hydromax looks good until you try one on - 39mm is a bit too girlie size for me. That said, my wife wears my Monaco every day (she hates small watches). |

From a technical perspective I've always loved the Hydromax, but it just looks so damn boring! The Sinn UX (the Einsatzzeitmesser 2 B to be precise!) is a much better looking oil-filled option in my book. Great price at £995 too. |

I think they'll both suffer from that. In fact a lot of Sinn watches are only serviceable at Sinn these days - all their Argon filled cases, etc. |

11,100 meters... so it would be OK to shower with?

While their #1 is pretty, I do nothink I would consider a full case display a "gadgety" watch. This is a little sad from the country who brought the gadgety sophistication of James Bond to the world!! Now pay attention double-o 7

I agree. I actually find the GP a little too ornate. I think there are much nicer tourbillons out there. Personally I think that purely as a gadget, the Tissot should've won. |
