Watches - another OCD problem
-
Here's another GMT, the Grand Seiko 9F Quartz GMT. This version, with the yellow highlight, has a specially tweaked movement accurate to within five seconds per year. :o

dead sexy–but among my very favorites of all GMTs is this one: http://watchesbysjx.com/2017/10/introducing-the-grand-seiko-hi-beat-gmt-peacock-sbgj227.html

@mclaincausey the green peacock dial is lovely.
I like the Grand Seiko Blue Ceramic GMT, although it's probably an acquired taste.
It's also a big (46 mm in diameter) and expensive ($15K) watch.
Hodinkee and Watch Time have writeups.

Here's the background story on the Rolex in Crazy Rich Asians.
And an Instagram post by the very lucky owner.

It was a pretty fun movie. I'm told the author name drops exceedingly nice watches throughout all three books in the series. It will be interesting to see if any others get screen time in the future movie(s).

So I went to the Vintage Rolex Forum x Fourtané meet last weekend in Carmel-by-the-Sea (see below for the link) and it was wonderful. I met a lot of wonderful people there, Eric Ku included, and saw the below Oysterquartz. I knew my father would love it so I let him know about it and now he's the proud owner of this 1980 Datejust Oysterquartz! It's his first vintage piece and he couldn't be happier. I love that I was able to convince him to get it and offload his regular Datejust

About 10 years ago I had a dealer offer me an Oysterquartz for $700 and I sadly passed on it because we were buying a house. [emoji24]

I’d love to have one in veg tan but unfortunately leather and hospitals dont mix well. I’d love even more to have a sterling bracelet but keeping my wife from tearing off my genitals is my first priority.

Looking to trade my Panerai for a Rolex. Can anyone recommend a dealer or person they’ve dealt with?

Well usually she’s cool with my little hobbies but sometimes….....5 feet and 95lbs of fury.

Like the 2 pounds of GoodArt sterling on your window sill?
he said enviously -
Tried on the Panerai PAM01535 this week while in Vegas. The size works for me, I prefer a 12 hour GMT scale over a 24 hour, and the hobnail dial is really cool in person, but 100m water resistance for a dive watch? Really Panerai?!?
Hoping to see the Oris Propilot Worldtimer in person today before heading to dinner. Pretty sure it's going to be too big for my tastes.
Also checked out a blue dialed Reverso at JLC. Jody found a blue dialed one too. We are talking about getting the pair for our 10 yr anniversary in a few years and having the flip side engraved with our wedding date
Jody doesn't care that hers would be quartz, and honestly she's even harder on gear than I am, so it's probably for the best.
