Hey Watch fanatics.... I love watches just as much as you do and I own Omega Seamaster, Breitling Chrono Superocean, Seiko Kinetic, Rolex Submariner .... even a CASIO! But, I have since taken notice of this watch Ebel 1911 Discovery Chronograph.... this watch is really catchy! Anyone know anything about EBEL or own one? http://www.thewatchery.com/Ebel-9750L62 ... h-6905.htm? |

Generally, Ebel has had a bit of a "woman's brand" image over the years. Their designs are generally very curved and not overly masculine in appearance. However IMO the new Ebel Tekton (https://www.worldlux.com/cgi-bin/naviga ... rono%20139) is going some way to change that image as it is much bigger than previous offerings and has quite a nifty in-house movement. I've handled it in person and it's actually a very very nice piece. If they carry on down this current path, they could well start to appeal to more men than they have to date. The model you provided a link to is more manly than many of their models, so that's a good thing! ![]() This model looks quite Tag-like to me - which means it's not my favourite design(!) - but at the right price it's probably a decent enough piece. |
