    it seems I'm into unusual watches lately :D The Seiko Discus last week and now...the single hand ones!
    I find their vintage look quite interesting and very elegant so here these are the ones that really are catching my eyes:
    Meistersinger N.1 (manual) and N.3 (automatic): they are the best ones out there IMHO, I'm reading only positive feedbacks about them

    Karl Falk: they look good as well but they are quite expensive. The box and the tool that come with the watch look pretty.

    DeFakto: they produce only 2 models, both single hand. I prefer the one in PVD...the look is modern and they are the cheapest out there.

    what do you think about them? do you have another model to take into consideration?

    Of that lot the MeisterSinger is the only one I'm familiar with, decent work horse movements with a nice clean design.

    i really like the Meistersinger, I've been looking for one on the net but I've managed to find only a Z1 which is manual and it's the old model, I suppose.
    The N.1 seems very different when you look at the back.
    that's the N.1

    Are those watches in those images both the same size? They both, as far as I can see, use the ETA2801 movement, I'm thinking the Z1 is 38mm.

    There are few older sub 500euro second hand Meistersinger's here

    Chronomaster.co.uk says about the Z1 "Width is 43 mm excluding the crown, 47 mm including crown", Mvt Unitas 6497

    thank you for the other link.

    me if its is not vintage i do not wear it, imo quite a few of the modern watches are not worth the asking price.
