Recently I received an email from Gnomon Watches about a new watch released from Steinhart. A new diver under the Triton range of professional dive watches. I was smitten by the image shown on the email and after reading the specifications on the watch, I immediately decided to grab one.



The Triton 1000 is the latest offering by Steinhart. This latest iteration has a new casing design, uses a new material for the casing; titanium, and incorporate an automatic HEV mechanism. As a complete package, this model can withstand 1000 meters of water pressure.

Despite the various shortfalls identified, I still believe this watch is still fairly priced after taking into consideration the visual and unique value proposition of the Triton 1000. Solving the issues highlighted will only serve to justify the utility of this watch and eliminate any further brand value deterioration.

Dear Meor,

Good read. Thanks for the review !

Any reason why do you prefer to buy from Gnomon instead of Steinhart directly ?

Regards

Distance is one thing. Since Gnomon is a AD for Steinhart, starting the relationship with them makes it easier in event i need to send the watch for servicing or repairs. Price wise, not much different (at least courier is included if go through Gnomon)
