Watches - another OCD problem
-
@northsouthdenimguy I know the BS is real. I’ve been to other ADs in other cites, states, and counties and have felt the same as many here have described.
Never felt that at our local spot. Though I’m sure there are some true big spenders that get superior, preferential treatment…for regular ol common folk, we always feel like they are treating us right. -
Yeah, it was kind of unusual with her, since I’d already bought a few watches from her at that location, and I’ve been buying from that store, at different locations for over 20 years. Definitely not a big fish but a decent purchase history over two decades.
All that being said, I’d hate to be a first-time Rolex buyer these days. A buddy of mine just got started and he’s already several watches in, buying everything gray instead of waiting, just tossing money away

-
Honestly the behavior of an AD on this is indicative of whether you should partner with them on other matters. If they are super mercenary about that they will be about everything else. If you find a nice AD stick with em I say. Beautiful EXP2s guys!

Nivada Grenchen x Hodinkee

@Jord love me a Tudor, which edition is this?
-
Is that the Inter Milan Black Bay 58? Sweet dial
-
@Anesthetist Tudor Black Bay Inter 58 M79030N-0025

I love Tudor as well, I own a fair few... Although prices have went up, I think they are great value for money. I paid £1.8k for the smiley dial Tudor BB 41mm red, and around £2k for my bronze a few pics above...The used market is great for Tudors, although I got my friend to get me the Milan one last year.

SMP 300 and IH-526 LOD

I normally only wear sub $100 Casios or Seiko SKX variants. This Explorer, however, holds a lot of sentimental value and it is my only expensive watch.

Shake my freaking head….

made me say ooof…
This thing is so sick. It makes me feel a certain way.

Brought home this beautiful full set Speedy 35.90.50.00 the other day. Sold in Japan 1992. It has developed a beautiful color of the tritium by now. I like this era of bracelet but its now on an admiral grey Phoenix strap


-
This hobby…. I might need to start a AA meeting for this. I didn’t buy this one … but it hits



Looking back again at this watch so sick the movement is mesmerizing when you look at it

A little watch Wabi-Sabi taken in exposing lighting. Some people like their watches polished, some like them weathered and worn; both is fine. I, however, belong to the latter group. This watch has been serviced after eleven years without being polished:



Interestingly the six o'clock clock side of the bracelet still looks rather pristine and in less exposing lighting the watch looks quite different (see above).

@gazza61 love the Chrono mate, very nice colour combo
-
Anyone out there sporting a Sinn?
Would love to hear people’s thoughts on em. Unfortunately I don’t have a stockist in my part of the world. Closest dealer for me is a 5 hour flight away
