I'm following up with my review of owning a Sternglas for roughly two months. I wanted to spend a bit of time with the watch for a balanced opinion.
To make it clear, I'm no watch connoisseur, but I'm good at spotting details.
I ran into Sternglas on Instagram, and I quickly started dreaming of owning a piece.
Even though I haven't worn a watch for more than five years, I've always liked the look of a field watch.
Luckily, I know a gent who collects and repairs watches for a living. He took a look at the specs and materials and gave his blessing, so I went ahead and got a Taiga GMT.
Out of the box, the watch is flawless, second to none in this price range.
Initially, I found it a bit larger than I expected, but that seems to be the trend for contemporary watch design.
I realised it seemed large because of the GMT indicators around the watch face, but I've gotten used to it.
The watch is light, virtually scratchproof, and has the look and feel of a premium product. It's discreet, classy and versatile. And it does sit nicely on my average-sized wrist.
I plan on getting a rubber band as well, so I can preserve the leather band for longer. I also prefer the feel of rubber over the summer months when I sweat more, plus the sporty look.
I'm confident my watch will stand the test of time and continue to turn heads (and wrists).
Sternglas, vielen Dank.
