I've been thinking about buying a casual beater type automatic watch around 1000-2000 dollar range (as a birthday gift for myself).

Watches I've been looking at:
>Sinn 556
>Sinn 105 UTC
>Oris BIg Crown Pointer Date
>Seiko Alpinist
>Seiko Presage Sharp Edged
>Certina DS Action Diver

What would be your recommendations?

[Anonymous No.17198134]

>>17198127
The Sinn is a solid watch and has options for batons or Arabic indices. The all brushed and especially tegimented steel would make for an excellent beater. The Seiko Alpinist has a lot of options—dial, indices, case shape and size. That choice would require more research imo. I have the shark tooth and it is a great daily, but it is dummy thicc. The contours help but you do notice it if it isn’t strapped tight af to your wrist.

Oris pro pilot looks good in person with the applied numerals. It's 41mm so don't know if that works for you. Could probably get a discount tho

Opinions on this guy? Which colour is better? Want something super minimalist that isn't bauhaus. Also leaning towards the cream dial as I already have a couple black watches.

The biggest pull-factor for the Certina would actually be the 38mm option. A compact little diver would be great, but I agree the design is a bit bland.

OEM Seiko bracelet is fine. The clasp sucks as it pokes out and has a gap. Not too keen on colored dial for daily beater but that’s just me. The ghost Alpinist (white dial steel indices) is one you should look at imo. As someone else said, less complications are better for daily wear. The Sinn would be twice as much but worth it if the aesthetic appeals to you.

It's at least 5mm too big, and the case is far too modern looking for that style of dial/hands. That is also hands down the most poorly executed multi-scale dial I have ever seen. It just looks like a really sad attempt at aping vintage style, without understanding what makes those vintage pieces appealing.

I feel retarded because I didn't realize until just now that grande sonnerie is different from minute repeater.
A grande sonnerie is a setting that automatically chimes the hours and quarters when the time passes a quarter (e.g., 2:45 or 3:00), like how a grandfather clock chimes the hours on the hour. But a minute repeater chimes the hours, quarters, and minutes when you press a button or pull a slide.
Dufour's Grande Sonnerie has three complications: a grande sonnerie setting, a petite sonnerie setting (which chimes the hours on the hour, but only the quarters at quarter after, half past, and quarter til), and a minute repeater button.
I appreciate this watch a lot more now.

I don't know about that specific movement, but most modern chiming movements have a way to turn the strikework on or off.
The minute repeater, of course, only ever chimes when you trigger it.

[Anonymous No.17198502]

>>17198486
You can put the sonnerie in silent mode or strike mode. The chiming function also draws power from a separate barrel than the one that powers the timekeeping. You turn the crown clockwise to wind one of the barrels and counter-clockwise to wind the other.
