TBH think both cases it's minimal and pretty much personal preference. If I had a perpetual calendar or some **** I think a watch winder would be a must simply for convenience.

I've read much of the same, although there seems to be a consensus that modern oils don't really have these issues.

Stumbled across a beauty on a hodinkee video yesterday.

As AP is may favourite brand, this beauty really stood out to me, a stark contrast from todays models.

Asymetrical Audemars Piguet From The 1960s

Top 5 laundry detergents in the game (don't judge my opinion):

1.Tide (delivers a clean and fresh style of)
2.Oxi clean (attacks dry stains like a monster)
3.all (deserves a spot in the top 5 but not the best)
4.wisk (I respect the stain spectrum tech. But needs to fight harder for that top 3)
5.purex (up and coming in the game)

I've binged on blue dialed beauties! Got 3 new blue dials

Will post decent pics later






Saving the best for last: an ultra rare two-tone with bark motive on the steel. The bark really makes it pop like no other!

Hi guys! long time no see. How has everybody been?

Im about to sell the Daytona and the ROC (trying to anyways).

Gonna change everything up if I can unload them.

Thinking about a 116515 and/or a VC 49152/49150. So many possibilities!

I think Im done with AP for a while unless I can find a 2nd hand (2nd gen) Navy, Panda or a bumblebee that hasnt rounded out.

Will update again once a change has been made. Hopefully I can get this done before my bday

Pics (not the best quality; my legit camera's got a dead battery):

The fact that you haven't posted anymore close up pics just confirms that you're a fraud, you're the reason rep owners are looked down on.
fuark, you just went in balls deep. gotta say ive repped him a few times before for watches and never thought he would be frauding. I think the fact he has vanished says all we needed to know. Stay safe Frauders, there is a new Sheriff in town and his name is Chase02

****ing customs I swear. My watch has been sitting there for almost 2 weeks now with no signs of movement. I sent an email to the seller to see if there is anything they can do. It is a goddamn watch people, nothing more.

That sucks, Last time I was able to pay duty/VAT whilst it was still in flight so there wasnt any delay at all. May be worth contacting the courier with a tracking number if you have it to see what the hold up is

Sorry, I completely forgot about this. Anyway, here is a photo of my "replica" 5980R and in the background is a "replica" of the inside of my home





and for good measure, my "base model BMW"



oh and some "base model range rovers"



and my "replica tax returns"



as well as my "replica bank statement"



The crown wasn't screwed down all the way because I had just finished setting the time and wanted to take the photo before anyone saw me. I have no reason to buy fake **** nor do I need to impress anyone.

I hope this answers your concerns and don't ask me about it again.

Not really a watch guy; what do you guys think about this deal? The model appears to be some store exclusive so I can't find any additional info by searching up the number. The currency is Canadian dollars.

Citizen makes decent watches; great value.

That is a good price…not as great of a "deal" as advertised but given our chitty dollar that is still a solid watch for a solid price; if you like it get it as long as you don't have tiny wrists.
