Watches - another OCD problem

On the way to theatre wearing Tudor Pelagos and Nigel Cabourn work shirt -
That Pelagos is damn cool, @Moty
How do you like it? -
I love it, really. This is my third piece, had the first gen. in black, when blue came it was instant love, than I had a watches-off period and 2,5 yrs ago it came back and I bought these and never had on my mind sale of them. They are from technical and design point of view for me absolutely perfect
-
Yeah, the blue is where it's at in my opinion, @Moty. All of the watch-obsessed folk on Hodinkee/other watch forums always talk about getting one of these and never quite do so. From what I understand, these watches very well and can take a beating. Plus, the design is simply perfect and, again, that blue is beautiful. If I were to buy a modern day diver, I'd have to say that it would be a blue Pelagos.

So true, it is such an universal watch, you can wear with jeans, suit or swimsuit
-
And lumi is a blast

Blancpain have come up with a titanium version of the Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe. Looks nice.
More at Monochrome.

If it´s blue it´ll be must-have for me
-
I just can't help but feel the Bathyscaphe to be a bridesmaid to the original models, though there are many fine examples, especially that one.
-
The Bathyscaphe's hands remind me of the Sinn U1's.
More refined but totally agree.

Just a personal quirk of mine, but I'm always put off when the hands are different widths like that.

Want a green Nautilus? Loupe This are currently auctioning one, and the price has (at the time of writing) hit $332,000, with five days to go.

The Nautilus is objectively a nice watch, though it's never really done it for me, but I remain to be convinced that it's worth nearly $300K over list. Several people, who are considerably richer than me, disagree.
-
There are tens of thousands of people in the world for whom that price tag has the same meaning as a venti latte has for us. Good for them. Paying $300k over list is how they spread their money around.
I do wonder, along with many others, what are the watches that will prove later to have been great purchases now.
-
I also wonder what the residual value will be on that Patek. They’ll probably do a tax write off as a depreciating asset…. Yeah, it’s a phenomenal watch, but it’s just nonsense at that price. It’ll probably go to some talentless tosspot, who through the sheer degradation of society has achieved fame. I’m sure it will look lovely with their Versace tracksuit
