Piloten 332 Posted April 24, 2019 IN my quest for The Watch That I Want (today), I stumbled across this microbrand: https://www.marcandsons.de/en/ Getting this one myself, I'll let you know https://www.marcandsons.de/en/collection/countdown-bezel-models/marc-sons-diver-watch-series-sport-modding-countdown-bezel-msd-045-1c-s/a-2738/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jibuti 958 Posted April 24, 2019 not bad design John....but I'd still choose Steinhart with ETA for few EUR more.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GingerApple 7,285 Posted April 26, 2019 What are you going to use your countdown bezel for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,285 Posted April 26, 2019 I'm probably/actually in love with her. I think she's a Cambridge University maths graduate, probably a double fist first degree, she loves her football and also is fit as fuck and knows it. Many a tissue had been sacrificed in her honour!

Abe Fromen 1,620 Posted April 26, 2019 Not a bad price point but ultimately they all look like Rolex. I'd rather get a good quality rep. Hell, I have a Magrette Moana Professional and I literally haven't worn it since last August. Reps and my JLC get all the wrist time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abe Fromen 1,620 Posted April 26, 2019 I actually prefer the countdown bezel now that I look closely at it. More useful than a typical diver bezel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Munster87 0 Posted April 29, 2019 I think I would choose a Seiko movement in a diver rather than ETA any day? Had one for over 20 years and been totally abused and has never missed a beat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DAY9080 3 Posted March 27, 2021 Dare I ask how the Marc & Sons diver is holding up? One of mine has died! I haven’t had time to send it off for repairs but wanted to know if yours have lasted the rest of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piloten 332 Posted March 31, 2021 I just saw this. It's running like a champ. I see they dropped this model from their lineup though. The countdown bezel is stupidly useful for everything from eggs to parking meters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
