          @JDelage I think that Rolex's policy is stupid because it doesn't allow the retailer to adjust their inventory to match demand, rather it's a case that they're landed with a bunch of inventory that they can't shift.

          However, Richemont probably take the prize for stupid.

              Recent pickup. Always wanted a vintage Seamaster. It’s so small compared to my other watches. It needs a better watch strap.

                        More substantial strap from m Jack Foster. Horween English Tan Dublin. The watch doesn’t feel as small now.

                          Nice watch @summ3rhays !

                          My little Tender watch is 36 mm, which I'm guessing is about the same size as the Seamaster, and I adjusted to it after a few days. I think that you'll get used to it pretty quickly.

                          On the guilty pleasure front, I got to see a Bell & Ross Burning Skull. I know that it's an ETA base movement dressed up in an engraved case, but I liked it.

                          A bronze version has been released in China and Hong Kong.

                          However, were I to go that way, I'd get the just announced Laughing Skull, which has an in-house movement, and a moving jaw. 😃

                              This Submariner sold for a million dollars.

                              It belonged to a painter, as in decorator, rather than a famous artist. It's missing its original strap, and the bezel was pulled off to stop it getting it gummed up with paint!

                              I don't get it. At all. There are people with far more money than sense.

                                  That looks like the type of rusted busted vintage piece I like to dig out at flea markets.  Hard to fathom paying top dollar for it.

                                    Of course, there aren't usually any subs in the bins…

                                            I’m sure I did too. My apologies. In my defence it was late and I was very tired (and a bit drunk, but apparently that’s not an excuse anymore [emoji1]).
