[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2770143, member: 76194"]Are you talking about these watches? [ATTACH=full]638574[/ATTACH] Not my cup of tea, but I do have to admit that having a single hand and a 24 hour dial is unique. It looks interesting, though the quartz movement inside, the Swiss made Ronda Caliber 505.24h GMT quartz movement, is not that great as it lacks thermal compensation. That watch will never be more accurate than +5 seconds a month, but if it had thermal compensation it could have been as accurate as +10 seconds a year. I would have preferred an ETA quartz movement with thermal compensation. However, in a watch with this form factor accuracy is not exactly super important, so I can forgive that. I just wish they would put out a model with saphire crystal, and then I might get one just for the fun factor. They do seem decently priced for what they are...which is a huge plus as far as I'm concerned. :happy:[/QUOTE]
