    The 3 new variations are

    Blue Green



    Vintage Black



    And Jet (as they call it)



    (all pics from Bremont site)

    That last one is very nice indeed. I just hope the bezel is 120 click.

    £3.7k? I'd better see what I can find on the used market....
    I’m liking the Jet too. It’s a bit odd that the GMT bezel is unidirectional.

    Another colourful 103 LE from Sinn. Nice to see them use a rare ceramic bezel insert too.





    Only 300 being made for 'Armbanduhren' magazine, and steeply-priced at 3,590, which is simply greedy for something with a mundane Sellita movement.

    I like it, but I can see it being an opinion divider lookswise.

    Yes, I saw that. I guess it is just because the existing S300 dive bezel does that, and their modular range philosophy prefers not to introduce new ways of doing the same thing, so the S300 bezel gets re-used on this model

    New centre-minutes chronograph from Damasko, DC96, reprising the dressier look of their erstwhile DK100-series:



    Also coming with black or silver dials.

    No idea as to price, but I'd expect around the £3,000 mark, as seems inevitable nowadays.

    First impression is I like it a lot - the more recent typeface is a good development, and it has all the functionality I like, plus I've been fancying a blue-dialled chrono for a while now.

    Not going to rush-in this time: I didn't bond with the DC76, so ideally need to see this in the metal first, also the need to decide what to sell to fund it...

    Good Grief! Feels like something inside is stirring.

    Same, I keep going back for a look at the pic...

    That is lovely Earl, I would like a blue Chrono but it needs to come on a bracelet. The centre seconds is a desirable but uncommon feature. Let's hope 3k is not too far off.

    Likely that the case is fundamentally identical with the DC56 or DC76 (polished bezel notwithstanding), so Damasko's lovely-if-pricey bracelet will fit it.

    Umm, I had lost track of price inflation at Damasko - and this is by far the worst, how about €4,500?!!!

    Me neither, I'm out. Shame.

    Very nice, pity the orange dial version is a LE.

    Cheaper to buy a new bezel insert than replace the entire bezel ring.
