Sturhling Original: Saw One for the First Time Yesterday

I had a buddy come over yesterday and he showed me a new watch that he purchased. To my surprise, it was a Sturhling Original Skeleton which is something I have blogged about in the past but I have never seen one in person.


The one he purchased was the one above but instead of arabic numbers along the outside, it had roman numerals. I was quite surprised because for $150 dollar watch, the movement appears to be decenly made (knock on wood). I have heard of a lot of issues with these watches in the past but the movement looked well done and the watch kept time very well.

He told me he purchased it through chronoshark.com for $70. For those of you who are interested in affordable watches at discounted prices, chronoshark basically scours the internet for the best deals of the day and posts it. I would highly recommend that you check out that website. Just as a test to see if you are actually reading my article, what did my last article cover?

    I don't think I would be willing to put up $70 for a watch but something nice looking like that might be an exception.

    You had commented on my blog that you didn't know what I was doing. I am currently reading through The Secret Doctrine and I am giving my interpretation of what the stanzas mean. More information can be found on my blog, I think.

    The movie is from France. I've never worn a watch but I think getting a sweet looking watch for cheap might be in my future

    This looks like a very nice watch. Usually, I don't wear watches, but after taking a look at your blog... I guess I could start wearing them again!
    BTW, I'm following you. I like your blog. :D

    Thanks for the tip, I've always loved watches. I got a Orange Tag Heuer Formula 1 a while back and I'm so glad I did.

    There is no "12" on the dial. Tat means at least 7% off.

    I think that's a trick question at the end. We could always look and see the next post is about the tourbillion (sp). I am guessing you had an article that you ended up deleting. I must admit with some 70 blogs that I load everyday (of course not all of them update daily) its tough to keep up with everyone's daily post.
