So, for a while I've been thinking "hey, if Sinn made a 4 hand GMT sports watch with a rotating 24 hour bezel in the vein of like, the GMT Master, that'd be neat"

now they've done so, and it is indeed very neat

the Boldr Venture Field Medic

they're mechaquartz chronographs with pulsation and respiration scales on there, very well sized (38mm case, 12.2mm thick, 44mm lug-to-lug), good water resistance (200m)

very doctor-y

also only around 300 bucks, which is a decent price for such a thing

The MAT Watches Egg Master

It's a watch created for L'Association de Sauvegarde de l'Oeuf Mayonnaise (The Association for the Protection of Egg Mayonnaise)

It's being released for this year's Eggs Mayonnaise World Championship

I am not making a single word of this up

And now in actually interesting watch news, these have been announced by Seiko

Seiko Presage "Sharp Edges" series

Nicely finished, 39mm cases, 6R35 movements

The dial is inspired by a traditional hemp leaf pattern from the Heian period (794-1185) and apparently symbolise growth and prosperity

And you can buy all 4 of them for less than the cost of one of the recent Rolex releases (they're $1,000-ish each)
