I have always loved the designs of Stowa and have always wanted a Marine Original. Late last week, I saw one for sale over at WUS and took a shot at picking it up. Well....the prior owner an I worked out the details and it came in the mail today!

The watch is a LNIB condition (built Dec 2009) MO automatic with a brushed case and it came with two straps (light brown alligator and brown OM leather). It is a nice casual/dress watch with a nice size of 40mm and wears very nice/light on the wrist.

Here are a few photos that I took of it this morning...

ALRIGHT MARK! I am happy you landed this one as I knew you were on the hunt for some time. A great looking watch and one I have thought about as well for some time. Congratulations!

That watch rocks and looks just as sweet with jeans and a polo shirt as it does with a suit! Great score Mark! Bought another Stowa! 74725

Oh boy Mark ! Bought another Stowa! Icon_eek Bought another Stowa! Icon_biggrin THIS is a beautiful looking Stowa here !
Can't believe how classic a look this Marine Original of yours
has. I'm used to seeing the super sporty Seatime, and Prodivers
with their neat interchangeable bezels and all. However, this
is a real change of pace, and it's phenomenal how a watch
company like Stowa can make such totally different watch
styles. All the while, doing it in an EXTREMELY impressive
way. Just as your other Stowas have that flawless sport
dive theme down. This Marine Original here flawlessly has
the smooth, classic, elegant theme down ! Bought another Stowa! 46145 ..This case
is pure, simple, and classy. The way the finish is done, as
well as how the crown looks is exceptional imho. Reminds
you of how watches were built years ago, and I think that
is one of the best parts about these watches. They capture
a little of what watches were about, and add it in with today's
technologies. I think the way Stowa did the dials is excellent
too. The light color makes the dark numbers stand out, as well
as let you enjoy whats going on there. Have to add that those
hands pretty much try to steal the show. The shape, and overall
look of them is OUTSTANDING ! Bought another Stowa! Icon_biggrin It really is the perfect mix of
coolness and class. The quality couldn't be better either from
what I can see. From the case, and dial, to what must be an
especially nice movement inside. This is a special pick up sir !!!
..Oh, and this strap is off the charts as well ! ..Fantastic !
Congratulations on your latest Stowa ! ..It's one to ENJOY
Mark !!!

..Super pictures right here as well !
