Stowa Partitio or Marine Original
As much as I love my Rolex’s I also love the style of some of the German brands, particularly Nomos and Stowa.
I already own a Nomos so lately I’ve been taking a serious look at the Stowa Marine Original and Partitio, both with the white dial. They’re both such clean looking watches with no complications that fit my style perfectly. And the price point for watches of this quality is hard to beat. At present I am leaning toward the Partitio because of the softness of the dial that I find very attractive. I am interested in hearing the forums thoughts on these two references particularly from anyone who owns either one.

Tough choice Angelo.
I once had the Marine and flipped for something I don’t recall. But really enjoyed the watch. That would be my choice. I would also look at the Archimede DeckWatch. That one is still on my list. On a side note I am eagerly awaiting my Nomos Club Amsterdam from Ace Jewlers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

I like both and Stowa makes great watches for the price. I'd buy whichever one sings to you more.

You’re right. Can’t beat the price point on either one.

[QUOTE=SemperFi;9168839]Thanks. If I go with the Marine Original it would be for the hand winding model.
That's the one I have with the white dial option! |
