Congrats Alistair, that's lovely.

My Stowa Antea is now "in transit" with fedex

Fingers crossed for a knock on the door in the morning JammyD. Liking mine, thanks for all the comments guys, it's getting wrist time for the next few days at least.

Now I've seen your photos I'm even more pee'd off that I missed out. lovely looking watch, nice movement and good watch box. At the price they were selling at last week the Antea was a real bargain. Congrats (he says through clenched teeth ).

No knock on the door this morning, will now have to wait until Monday.
Checked the FedEx tracking this evening and the Stowa parcel arrived in Paris at 5.10 p.m. today

Ok first off I really need to stay away from this forum. First you show off that cracking looking Stowa and then have them along side 2 of my favorite CW watches! I have become more and more attracted to German watches I think I may purchase a Zeppelin or Junkers in the near future. I hear their chronos use Poljot movements inside them the same as the Moscow Classic watches which go for the same price.

By the way, anyone purchased any of those Stowa with the black dials on them?

Another Happy Bunny

FedEx man delivered my Stowa Antea at 1.45 p.m. today

Good news at last

And your verdict is... ? And your pictures are where... ?

Mine has had the privilege of being the "work" watch of the day.... looks good under/emerging from a suit cuff. Still liking the uncluttered design and the sweep of the second hand is oh so smooth. Classy piece for which I say thanks again for the spot last weekend
