    Back to Doxa

    Just transfered my money to get a "new" Doxa. I owned the 4000T but traded it. And realised that this was one of the very few watches I really miss. While I was on the bring of pulling the trigger on a new T-Graph, I was really concerned about the size. There was a time when the Megalodon seemed just about right, but nowadays it can be a little less. And I couldn't make my mind up between the black or orange dial anyway. So instead I got a 750T Pro, which will be enough to fill my thirst for orange. I'll report back once she is with me...just one question in the meantime. Are the lugs 21 or 22mm?? I'm sure somebody knows...

    Hi Clonetrooper, the lug size is 21.5, so any leather or rubber 22mm will fit perfectly.

    Clonetrooper, Welcome back to the Doxa family fellow "SINNer" . I'm a newbie to the Doxa family and really enjoy my beautiful orange Doxa. You have some mighty fine Sinn watches and your orange 750T will be a great additon to your collection. Cheers, Bill P.

    Thanks admin and bill. Though my favored color is black, I have lots of love for orange. The 4000 was really cool, and I traded it only for an even cooler Sinn. But I new I would return one day. It actually comes with a Doxa rubber, but I guess I need an orange isofrane at some point!

    Clonetrooper, yep, orange does add a lot of nice color to a collection. Like you, I prefer a black dial watch, but do have one white and two blue ones. My orange Doxa is great. As a matter of fact, I just picked up a nice 600T Dirk Pitt model today. I'm eager to get it in my hands. Cheers, Bill P.

    Re: Back to Doxa

    Congrats CloneTrooper. My 750T Pro is the star of my collection. I'm sure that you are gonna love it. I'm pretty sure that you and Bill (Gaopa) are both big time Sinners that have stepped over to the Orange side.

    As far as the lugs go, the others were correct that they are 21mm or 21.5mm depending on your source. 22mm straps fit fine on my 750T. An interesting fact about regarding the 750T is the fact that the bracelet is the same 20mm BOR that is on many of the re-issues. The end link is 21mm but the bracelet is 20mm. It actually works well and looks good.

    Here is a pic mine to hold you over until yours arrives.

    Rusty, having seen your 750T at the ATL GTG I can say that it is a great looking watch! It also looks great on your wrist in that photo! I just have to say that the orange is addictive! My 1200T Pro has been on my wrist today and I keep looking at it, not just to know the time, but to look and admire it! Cheers, Bill P.

    What loved a lot with my 4000T, was not only the crisp fresh orange dial, but the bezel action. I have sampled soooo many watches over the last years, but that bezel action was unique so far.

    The 750T is just the right Sub for all who like bigger watches.
