Also anything wrong with going on the used market on a website like crown and caliber? The reviews seem good, just don’t want to get screwed.

For my longines hydroconquest, i basically asked if there was a cash discount. They gave me like $250 off a $1700 watch i believe. For most others, eh.

Always ask for a discount. Stainless Rolex, Patek, AP, forget about it. Pretty much anything else is game. Something like Omega, I'd shoot for at least 20%. Go in person; they don't like quoting prices over the phone.

So i finally put something on my wrist that isn’t a watch. I sort of put it together based on random pieces from wristbands.
Hooks from Hermès
https://cjluxury.com/products/copy-o...-hook-bracelet
Center piece from a William Henry dinosaur fossil bracelet that broke years ago (long story).
https://www.tribalhollywood.com/prod...hoCCzkQAvD_BwE
I’m usually no fan of excess stuff on a man, but I kinda like it brahs
What do you say misc wristwatch crew? Yay or nay?

idk I've never been crazy about bracelets. I could see it looking cool in like a dark bar or somewhere like that. I have this David Urman one I got a few years ago as a gift, but don't think I've ever wore it out. Maybe I should..

^Looks fine by me
A lot of whether or not something works depends on who you are and how you make it work.
Reminds me of one of my favorite articles on the subject.
https://www.askmen.com/fashion/mens-...history-2.html
“Your problem, of course, is that you lack the strength of your convictions. Let me give you the best advice anyone is ever going to give you. Never be half-hearted about what you like and don't like…..There is absolutely nothing more suffocatingly dull, pedantic and uninteresting than unvarying good taste.“

Has anyone ever sold to an online retailer?
Im looking to sell my Seamaster Aqua Terra and wanting to upgrade to an Air King, Explorer or Speedmaster. The one place I have been looking at is Bobs watches. They seem to be a legit operation. Was thinking about sending in my info and getting an estimate on what I could get for it. Im not really that motivated to sell to an individual. I don't have boxes or papers for the watch but also don't have a ton of money in it, so wouldn't be looking to get a crazy amount for it. Any other places I should look to sell?

I think we're getting to a point of not giving a **** about complications. **********s used to be a thing and now they're just some retarded feature that doesn't do ****. Gyro ********** was at least amazing to look at.

If it were My money i'd be looking at the oyster perpetual, or explorer 1 if I was replacing an aqua terra in that price point. But hey if you rarely do fancy stuff, fuk it, buy what you want.

to play devil's advocate though, one can make the argument that watches in general are dumb as fuk because we can all just look down at our iphones for the time *shrug*

Just ordered a used excellent condition “skyfall” edition omega aqua terra with box and papers. After taxes came out to right at 4k.
Hope I don’t regret it later on! But looks like a beautiful watch. And always been a huge James Bond fan so kind of cool to have the one he wore in the movie.

Went to that that restaurant with the watch guy owner again. Dude hit me with some new game. Unbeknownst to me, Tudor released the Black Bay 58 with a blue bezel and blue dial and he picked up 1 of the 3 available in our city evidently. He was cool enough to let me try it on.
The shade of blue wasn't to my liking but it was my first time trying on a BB58 and now i TOTALLY get the hype behind the watch. Way thinner than the rest of the BB's and it's just perfect proportionately. I was genuinely surprised
Also chatted to him about what he thinks rolex will be releasing September 1st and he said "a friend" suspects a couple new datejust configurations. He keeps trying to tell me that the fluted bezel is the only way to go on a datejust, and if i'm going to go smooth bezel i may as well get the oyster perpetual in a white dial which he think is a perfect watch and i'd save 3k. Again though, if i'm gonna go that far i may as well save another 3k, and pick up an aqua terra. Definitely gonna be one of those purchases that comes down to seeing them all side by side and on wrist.
good job dave man. James bond associations aside, I do think that's the best configuration of the aqua terra. date window at 3 ocklock, vertical "teak deck" dial as opposed to the horizontal newer ones. Perfect watch, think you'll love it.

That seamaster is a stunning watch
Cheapie watch I bought for work. I wore my good watch a couple times but I didn't feel comfortable that it wouldn't get seriously damaged.
Seiko V SNZG13. About as cheap as you can get for a reliable automatic outside of Orient.

Haven't had my morning coffee yet. Took me awhile to key on "
PATEL
Philippe"
Then I'm like who was date function? Who was Jubilee bracelet? But I dunno, everyone who has said that makes a lot more money than me and has handled way more rolexes than I have. December/January will be an interesting month. The fluted config pushes the watch into BLNR/BLRO money (msrp of course). But then you're playing the "we'll put you on the list" game. Then that also would kill the purpose of what i want my second watch to be, which is something that cane be dressy as well as casual. At this point in the game, I don't know wtf i'll be walking out with.
