This weekend I "rediscovered" my Sector 600 in a drawer. I originally owned a Sector 600 Anadigit. I really liked how you could switch off the digital display and make the dial clean an void, Unfortunately it had a malfunction and they could not repair it during the guarantee period. Because the Anadigit was not in production any more, they offered me an exchange. And that is how I came to this model here.
It has saphire crystal, an ETA movement and WR is rated to 200m.

I know it is certainly nothing high-endish as usually discussed here, but I wonder what's the general WIS opinion on Sector or espacially on this watch?

I really enjoy Sector watches. Mine is a Mountain Master (I think that's the name). Its an ABC watch and is very good quality overall. I, also like the ability to switch of the digital read out. Temperature gauge has to be used off the wrist, as body heat affects the readings and the compass is a tad slow, but it is a great watch none the less.

I had no idea they made mechanical watches as well. Your one is certainly in keeping with the makers rugged image and go anywhere no nonsense attitude. The only fault with mine is that the crown came off in my hand once, but it was easily fixed and is securely back on the watch now. Well priced and great features. The MM is on a Nato style strap.

I should dust it off and see how its going.

Yes, that is also the case with my Tissot Sea-Touch, except when submerged into water (while snorkeling or diving).

The Sector 600 has no mechanical movement. But it is from ETA all the same. I think it's an ETA 251.272 (according to watchtime)
