I have the 2018 42mm Hamilton Intra-Matic 68 Auto Chrono LE, so know it's sized OK.
I had a Speedmaster triple date chrono with the silver dial, but it was too hard to make out the hands if I didn't have reading glasses on, so I finally sold it 2 weeks ago after having it 10 years.

Also in4 pics of the obnoxiously sized speedy professional box when it arrives. Just now noticing they include a loupe as well. Kind of hilarious when there's fuk all for dial detail on the speedy pros and it's a closed caseback but cool to have i'll admit.
Edit: I wonder if anyone has ever put a steel bracelet on the Grey Side of the Moon… something tells me that would look sick as fuk.
You can get one with a sapphire crystal and clear caseback

All I could think to say. I don't like it, but it's patek and steel so everyone wants it and therefor expensive.
The standard Royal Oak is a visual orgasm of sorts whereas I always thought the nautilus just looked weird.

Listen. We all know Rolex >>>>>>> Everything else. Lettuce be real tea here.
You almost have to laugh at how inept they are on releasing anything desirable on leather. To the point where their best selling dress watch is a steel watch lol (Datejust obvi). Honestly it's as bad as Jaeger Le Coultre making a desirable steel watch. JLC steel watches always look SO fuking retarded for some reason. Funny how each brand has mastered the opposite but cant buy the other to save their life.
Looking at the other major brands, it's kind of interesting though. I don't care what anyone says, if the nautilus was made by Breguet or Blancpain, no one would look twice at the fuking thing. It's a goofy lookin watch and sells strictly because PP is on the front. This theory is solidified by how potato looking the aquanaut is. Patek is a dress watch master as far as i'm concerned.
Audemars Piguet is the opposite with the royal oak obviously running things, and I think this is why I have to give a little more credit to A Lange. I was chitting on the odysseus when it initially came out, but even though it's not as quirky and unique as the sky-dweller or as sexy as the Royal Oak, if you look at actual vids as opposed to photos… it's kind of perfect???? i dunno, looking forward to what else they release on steel eventhough i can't buy one.
Poor vacheron, never getting love despite making god-tier watches across the board. Sorry about the rant. My monday night evening glass of whisky turned into 3

The blnr jubilee would be the best watch to get as it would give me the jubilee wrist presence and satisfy my need for a gmt and date function. The DJ41 would look nice, but it's the exact same price as an omega grey side of the moon which i think i would fawn over more.
I could go on davidsw and get the DJ41 right now for retail (when you consider the additions of tax), but due to who my girlfriend knows, I feel like i actually have a chance at getting the blnr at retail. So i'll play the game.
to your point though, i think rolex hype gets so ridiculous at times. I have almost negative desire to own the new "kermit" but it's already listing at 20k. u w0t m8?

The hulk had more of a presence compared to the kermit. But I still think I'd go with the BLNR.
The DJs have been growing on me as well. I really like the Jubilee DJ with the black dial or Rhodium. One of those or the BLNR which would be a grail watch for me.
Gonna be a few years at least before I manage to get one though. Hopefully you guys get yours soon.

I can't justify paying $14K for the Ed White, but it's the perfect size for me and I've been drooling over it ever since I first saw it. Hnnnnng

Don't ask me why he did this to himself, but he uploaded the video he put on a SE asia dating website to youtube. You will find nothing more difficult to watch on the internet. It's so cringy.

The omega has those beveled edges which looks to be 2 to 3 mm, then the tachymeter itself makes up some of the case so that's another 2mm shaved off. Despite a 42mm case size, your eyes are only processing 38mm of dial.

Can't go wrong with a speedy, IMO.
Edit: This AD is also the Rolex dealer im chatting with now that im in VA. So it would only help on that end.

Let's see how good you all's eye is. My girl follows nobody celebs on ig and she just sent me this screen shot of Scott Disick with the caption "what is this abomination?". Honestly it took me a solid 60 seconds of staring at it before i figured out what it was. I'll put results in the spoiler, but what did you think it is?
Spoiler!

Mind nuked, but pretty sure this is the first Iced out Tudor (GMT). Fuking embarassing, but the giveaways:
- the hour markers at 10 and 11 are visible enough to see they're of the "dive" variety. so could be omega too but the case says otherwise
- no crown guard
- gmt hour hand kind of sticks out, and the bezel is really particular.
- finally the bracelet and lugs are particular, googled tudor gmt annnnnd yup. bingo
