Nice aluminium box too.
I attended Watchtime Düsseldorf in October 2019. Sinn and Guinand were the show’s highlights for me.
I had heard Guinand’s name but didn’t know about their history or the Helmut Sinn connection. I particularly liked their Pilot Officer. Great size for my wrist, brilliantly finished, beautiful display back and overall just one of the few styles of watches that I am really drawn towards. Had a nice chat with their representative and wanted to buy the watch but didn’t pull the trigger on my return due to several reasons. I kept thinking about it though and finally decided to go for it just a few days ago.
Small company and apparently they only make a limited number of watches. The buying experience was very personal and different to what I am used to. All my correspondence was with the same person that I spoke to at the exhibition in Düsseldorf. I was informed they had one piece nearly ready and in the final stages of testing so it would be quicker than normal. I then placed my order and paid for it on their website. Once ready, it was shipped from Frankfurt by UPS and I received it the following day.
I looked at the pictures many times since being introduced to the watch. Still, I was really pleased upon receiving it, to find it just as beautiful as I remembered from when I last saw it in the flesh over 3 months ago. In the last 24 hours, it has gained 2 seconds. I can live with that!
My poor photography skills don’t do it justice unfortunately but it is a beauty. To my eyes anyway.
Nice aluminium box too.
Very nice watch congratulations, I have a guinand too I visited they sales plant a few yers ago very pro and friendly people great experience!
I considered some of the Guinand chronographs before I eventually settled on a Moonwatch last year. Yours was one of the models that I was tempted by. Good choice on your part.
Nice one. I would put it on a nice tan crocodile strap to take it an extra notch above.
What is the case diameter?
Do you mind if I ask pricing?
Thanks, would you say they are similar or higher quality than stowa?
