        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).

          I recall at least one big Hublot at someone's wrist… I agree, fun movie.

            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.

                    Wimp! Who needs testicles when you have a sterling silver Rolex strap  😃

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

                        Maybe so. Maybe not

                              Like the 2 pounds of GoodArt sterling on your window sill?  😶 he said enviously

                              Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                              Well, I have others.

                                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.

                                I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                                  The JLC reverse is a classic. It's funny to think that it was design as a sporty watch.

                                    Tried on the Oris, the quick set hour hand is very cool, but the watch just didn't speak to me.

                                    I foolishly tried on the Omega Speedmaster FOIS…it's perfect...

                                      I love Speedys, including that model, but at $5.3k it seems overpriced for a Speedy with an 1861 movement.

                                      Think it, be it.

                                        the watch just didn't speak to me.

                                        Anything specific, or just an overall impression?

                                        I ask, because you told me you didn't like the Tudor Heritage chrono, then when I tried it on, I didn't really like it either…

                                          A little bit of both. It's really big and awkward looking, and that's a guy that wears G-Shocks all the time.

                                          The dial is pretty, but the printed numbers don't really work for it.

                                          The date and day/night indicator on either side of the second time zone makes it seem cramped. There's just too much shit on that quadrant of the dial.

                                          The way you use the quickset hour is really cool, but it feels janky. The action of the bezel is squishy and the hour hand changing time wiggles, shakes and then groans over the the next hour maker.

                                            The metal sword hands really make the watch pop. Between that and the size and the sapphire crystal, I feel like it's worth the price. I used to have a Speedy sapphire sandwich, the plastic hands really took away from the watch.
