| I've been eyeing these for a while...like the style: sizable bracelet, big case, bullhead-style pushers...but haven't seen much on them in any of the watch forums... This Formex T375 runs a 7750, is 46mm wide and 19mm thick. They usually go for about a grand (new) on eBay auctions...thoughts? " border="0" /> " border="0" /> |

| I have read their case design has some special shock absorbing feature...
I also like the STADIUM slant of the case... ____________________________________ | |

| Years ago when I was looking at these watches they were almost 1/2 that price, somewhere in the area of $550.00 to $600.00. |

| Here's another one.......GMT, with an ETA 2893-2...... I remember Slick selling his on Geeks about a year ago; was asking, I think, around $900 for it. This version usually has an asking price of about $1,100 at the few places I've seen where it's offered...again, though, there's a German dealer on eBay (McArthur's) who frequently sells them at auction, where they go for around $500-$600...I like the looks of this one even more than the 7750 version...they do come with a great case, and extra straps... Gary — killer wrist shot! If it matters, I found this, on the formexwatch.ch website: " Watch SA is headquartered in Lengnau Biel/Bienne, right in the heart of the Swiss Watch Industry."

| These Formex watches look phenomenal. The way that case is shaped, along with the angle of it is beyond cool ! Also the dials are extremely eye-catching ! I also think the pusher at the top of the case is an excellent idea, that you don't see too much. The bracelet seems well made also. Let us know if you decide to get one 25or6to4..They really look GOOD ! Great pictures of yours too Sixtysix !!! Thanks. ____________________________________ | |
