Thread: Hmmmm.... not quite sure how this happened

    Hmmmm.... not quite sure how this happened

    Somehow I've ended up with 2 Sinn UX :shock:



    So tonight, when Mrs Toshi asks (and she will) "but haven't you got one of those already?" I'll have to point out the different crown position, the GSG9 logo, and the cunning use of a white seconds hand. Completely different! :lol:

    You're mad Rich, though very nice watches nonetheless. I'm just waiting for the Big Toshi Group shot :)

    You honestly mean that she won't notice the difference unless you point it out :happy8:

    My other half is the same, I could show her a Speedy Pro, a Bremont MBII, an IWC Spitfire and a Tag Monaco and she'd say 'they all look the same to me!' Mulberry handbags on the other had, she can spot the differences at 500yds!!

    I still think that the sale of Mrs Toshi's jewellery was a bit suspicious. :D

    And they're clearly very different watches. :roll:

    Nothing suspicious at all. The fact that this arrived so soon afterwards is purely coincidental :D

    Completely justified having both.

    To be honest, if you hadn't specifically mentioned the similarity between the two it would never have occurred to me.

    It happened the way it usually does....periods (short) of restraint followed by bursts of extravagance :wink:
    (but always tastefully done :) )

    Plus, one's on a NATO, the other on a bracelet!

    I love these watches. Quartz is just great when it delivers something you could not do with a mechanical movement. I think the UX, particularly in GSG9 form is stealing my SQ love from the Breitling Aerospace

    Pah! Easy work.

    You want try to try justifying owning two Dreadnoughts: that takes real husband-cunning, I can tell you.

    (I think I got away with it, too).

    I am but a mere pawn on the board of duplicity when compared to my wife. When I say I think I got away with it I am flattering myself: the real truth is she chose to let it pass.
