I'm curious how it ages. Seems like the one with the bronze bracelet would be pretty cool, too

Dumb question but is Sangin nice in real life? Grabbed one of their compasses and it’s really nice. My 7 year old stole it but at least I’ll still have it nearby on hikes

I’ll admit I got sucked into the Sangin drop hype back at new years. I got a K2 pilot and wound up not liking it. I traded for the Orangesicle shown. I think there are 3 main markets.  People who were in Sangin and have a connection, a small group of people who are like “coOl oPerATors wEAr TheSE”, and people like me who want a decent use watch that has a decent pedigree.

The owner has a good operational background, models have been field tested by real users, and the customer service seems to be top notch. Components are decent and time tested. Is it a 600 dollar watch, component wise Probabaly not, but put together well as a microbrand it’s well up there and worth the scratch.

I bought it for use on the ambulance as a watch I could beat and not worry about and get fixed easy. Yeah a 13 dollar F-91 does the same thing (and I have one) but watches are one of my things.

That said the people who resell TADs and gypsies for 2x and 3x purchase are jerks.

Lost of words to say I think they are worth the price but a Hamilton Mechanical are a solid choice too.

This pushed me over the edge!  I just ordered the green dial and black dial versions to see in person and hopefully one will be a keeper.

Technically, my second of today.  It just arrived.   I’m wearing tomorrow as well, so I won’t post tomorrow.

I can weigh in too.  Been wearing one regularly since last September- very solid pick so far , and I was about to say despite the price, but I will correct that to say Regardless of the price (up to a point) .    Quality of mine compares very well to my recent pickup of a Glycine Combat and rivals my Seiko’s.
   Perhaps a little proletariat compared to a lot of the fine timepieces you sport, but heck, you always have to have something to mow the lawn in

Proto, dang!  Congrats on that.

Got them both in hand now…tough call.  I do believe one will be a keeper.  The turtle wears much better than I would have thought.

Black or green, green or black, what say ye arfbros?
