Administrators TimeTexas Posted July 9, 2022 Administrators Share Posted July 9, 2022 Sarpaneva Super1 is probably at the top of my list right now. But there's a lot of amazing stuff available. What's on the top of your list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakkdry Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Wait for the new moonface from Sarpa! He said this summer. The Super1 is really cool too, a real everyday watch. Nothing concrete on my wishlist, don't have the finance right now. Orient Star Skeleton incoming. Not really an independent brand but I'm waiting since Octobre 21... Would love a Holthinrichs, an Armin Strom or SUF Helsinki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators TimeTexas Posted July 12, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted July 12, 2022 Yeah, I've just gotten infatuated with the Sarpaneva. I didn't know about the new moonphase coming up. I'll definitely check that out. I'm probably at least a year out from being able to get anything else major...too many purchases this year. I ordered a Czapek Antarctique Glacier Blue a while back and just got an email today asking for my selections. They now have a brushed bracelet instead of the satin with polished C-Links. Apparently they are about to start production again - they shut down for a while after the huge surge of popularity with the Antarctique Passage de Drake. According to my AD, they basically restructured over the last 6 months in order to change manufacturers and other partners that have the capability of increasing their demand. They are trying to ramp up to close to 1,000 watches per year up from just a few hundred. Not sure when its coming - no date yet, but it sounds like they are getting close to starting production again and I ordered mine before they even announced it, so I imagine it will be pretty soon. Armin Strom is doing great stuff these days. I think they have the third part of their collaboration with Jeremy Oster (Oster Jewelers) coming out soon. Definitely something I'm interested in, but it will be a while and I really need to go see one in person. Holthinrichs is doing some exciting stuff. I love the brand and I think they are headed for big things. Great guys too. I love the innovation with the 3D printing and also their experimentation with materials to achieve colors. I really like SUF but haven't found one I just couldn't resist. I'm sure it will happen at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
