Stowa Marine
My first mechanical german/swiss watch / several years ago/ - was the Stowa Marine. I met Jorg Schauer at Basel 2007 and one time more when he visited Poland at Watch Collectors Club meeting. The brand has kind of romantic charm, and is very sentimental to me.
Today I received the Marine 40mm automatic date, eta 2824 top grade.
I really appreciate the heat blued hands finishing and lacquered dial (looks really good, like enamel). At the retail price it is really bang for a buck, especially considering what you can buy from many well known brands.
