Thread: Watches to match my Egg

    Watches to match my Egg

    All this moon talk inspired me to buy a Ghyczy Garden Egg Chair from the V&A Museum now I need a watch to go with it. Any suggestions?

    How about this (click)?

    No 'moon pedigree', no heritage, a distinct lack of style, can't comment on accuracy or quality but.............it kind of matches that chair :D

    Me, too. I think that would look great with your chair.

    As for the Sinn, fine as it is, I can't see the aesthetic link...

    +1 Lip is perfect, or Seiko 6139-7100 helmet if you want something more wearable. Sinn bears absolutely no relation to the chair whatsoever.

    Okay, so how about you just buy the Sinn, and then see if you can find a chair to match it?

    Yikes....I feel a whole new thread coming on... :)

    something shamelessly space age, like maybe those 70's watches that were "digital" with mechanical movements....

    or if you are looking more upmarket then I think a huge omega dynamic would fit the bill
