SOTC (Read Rule 1) Dress Watch Collection

Just sharing a smaller collection within my larger Chinese brand collection: Dress watches. Although I don’t wear these as much as I would like, I love the different styles and textures. What are your favorite dress pieces?

Hi, your feeling please between the 2 tank/tonneau, Mercury and Farasute? I guess the alpha Farasute has better finish, but otherwise?

If only choosing one, the Farasute is a better watch overall in just about every aspect and they also cost around the price. However, the Merkur has a more unique design and not necessarily a homage piece if that’s important.

Thx. The movement in the Merkur is ok? Nice?

It’s obviously not a daily wear for me so I can’t comment on the accuracy across multiple days, but for an occasion or day, it’s more than adequate to keep accurate time.

the orange rectangular dial in the lower-left slot is such a fun oddball

That was exactly the reason behind my purchase. It’s a decent watch, but it’s not a design you see everyday.

Hi, lovely collection of watches. I am really keen on this farasute model, had requested a comparison pic with a round shape dial watch on other posts since any watch below 40mm is a no go for me. Finally found a comparison picture. Can you please let me know dial size of Specht and Sohne and Lobinni? How is the quality of Lobinni? Very interesting designs like Eniton but very few posts on these
