I just received the NEW limited edition Zinex watch. I love it. A real monster at 47mm, it is put together quite well. The dark dial has a real industrial look and provides great contrast to the logo and markers. Super-lumi dial is beautifully understated to offset the size of the piece. The crown alone is 10.5mm “that’s big folks“ real big. There are no knocks on this piece, sapphire crystal, 250 grams of 316L stainless, the list goes on. As a watch introduction it is a solid, workhorse watch, ETA 2824 all the fixings, get one of the 100 made in this edition. Two crowns up! CTWG

Three German Posts in a row–sorry Switzerland you’re next. I just could not resist the plump and juicy offering of the Glashutte Sport Evolution for this post. This big beauty is one of the newer offerings by Glashutte with everyone appeal. This watch “sports” the Caliber 39-31 with fifty plus jewels,(G.P. territory I tell ya) hold it next to a 7750 and call it a “girly man”. This chrono does not have a Date function, it stands true to the German design of simplicity. Silver and black dial offerings, with red accents and tachymeter bezel. The bracelet is pure and simple… the best, and I do mean the best,(Words don’t do it justice) Try one on today! Start an Evolution! Sport! CTWG

Tetra, Oh Tetra, I love it so! The Nomos brand of watches is a steal, I mean downright steal. Check the Square Tetra, it sports the Nomos Movement Alpha (a jazzed up Peseux 7100) with 17 jewels in manual wind format. The steel is a German standard 316L, Sapphire crystal and signature Cordavan strap. A sub-second dial sits at 6:00 with a choice between mid and full size. This is an outrageous value for approx. $1500.00 U.S. dollars. I can think of no other watch company with these qualities at such a price. Contact CTWG personally if you wish to score one of these gems! Auf Wiedersehen! CTWG

Kobold revives a favorite, with the Sir Ernest Shackleton Old Explorer’s model. If you remember the original, it featured that beautiful flesh tone dial. Now you can enjoy the smokin’ Artic blue. Michael Kobold, known for his more industrial hard German look, does a great job with this subtle dress/casual throw back timepiece. A hand-wound, Swiss-made movement, caliber K.348 (modified Unitas 6497) powers the Sir Ernest and is a technological marvel. The movement has been re-engineered to display a large center second hand and features traditional decorations, such as Geneva stripes on the bridges and an engine-turned surface. The Unitas 6497 has been a great movement for many companies, but the dressing on the Kobold is the best I have witnessed with this movement. 40+mm for the big case lovers , and limited to 50 pieces! CTWG has one for sale(so far)… first come, first serve. Locate yours quick, they won’t stay on the market long! CTWG
