    It's happened, I'm doomed!!!!

    A certain person is responsable, I never thought I'd see the day, but his banging on about the theme has broken my will power..................

    I ordered a Tuna SBBN015 from Higuchi today, with an extra rubber strap.

    Eddie.................nail the guy!

    Got a new watch, divers watch it is, had to drown the bastard to get it!

    Are we talking about... You-know-who?

    Quartz is horology too, imo. After all, it's yet another way to regulate movement.

    Lovely choice, btw.

    Bought this kids toy on impulse over a year ago. I`m surprised it's still with me :-)



    I'm sure yours will be with you for a while too.

    Best regards

    Well done Daddel, you've done what I keep promising too - I must get myself a tuna one of these days!

    Wearing my SBBN015 today and I've also got the rubber strap (the version with titanium hardwear).
    Cracking watch that wears extremely well.

    Miss mine. People tend to when they sell them. I'm sure I'll have another though.

    Higuchi will only ship it at the 20th of october..............
    I was on my way buying a Sinn 856 non UTC, only to be told by my dealer it would be available again march 2013!!

    And the Tuna was next in line, so, no patience.

    Had you marked as having better taste than that my man. Poor show.

    Who knows, maybe it will get lost during shipping giving your sanity time to reappear

    It's happened, I'm doomed!!!!

    It's an odd one, wears like a 42mm dive watch in my opinion. It's a beautiful but unusual design - which again is in the eye of the beholder. There's nothing quite like it and I definitely miss mine :(

    If anyone has it and wants to sell it back - it has a little dink on the shroud and might have lost a hex screw at some point - let me know!!
