Well, I know I had the Omega come this week but honestly, whats a guy to do? He has to keep up with everyone else and get another incoming! After seeing Chip, Kat and Roger's exploits, well, I just had to join in the fun! In all honesty there was going to be an incoming in a little while but a turn of events has now come about to make it happen now, just a different version of the companies watch I was going to get! Also, doing it this way will allow another incoming as well which will be a vintage but that is a little down the road as I know what I am after but what I want i have not seen for sale yet! So, what am I getting, hmmm, well, seeing as it is not that far off I will leave you guessing. Of course my old chum Carl is in on the secret!

Hey, you had an incoming last week! Still, I reckon your next incoming won't be that far off!!

I honestly have no idea and your clues (or lack of lol) aren't helping!

Think the broader historical sense of ocean in terms of horology and homages to that..

A submariner homage, then

Hmm, No, not a Sub Homage and the sea connection is not about being in it! This is one aspect to the watch but an important one in terms of design ethos.

No, not a DJ or any Rolex Roger. The homage is not about the watch being a replica but the history from whence the design gathered its inspiration and the inspiration has Teutonic connections! I am having fun with this! Of course when someone guesses or when I show it everyone will go, what was he drinking when he gave those clues!

I think that it's just a flippin' shame that my friend Ian gets so many incomings, and I get relatively few! Cheers Carl

Ian, did you perhaps buy something made from submarine steel, after investigating Sinn? Perhaps a Sinn pilot, of some kind?
