The Watch Thread - Part 10

[yattokame]

Morning everybody!

Decided to go out with this 48yo today! Old is gold

wow this is GORGEOUS!

 

[TeenTitan01]

Yeah regret big big. Partially because I found Lug to lug length too long and bracelet couldn't adjust to get perfect fit ( doesn't taper enough).

wah, liddat your wrist must be rather skinny...

anyway, there's always nato/leather strap...

you want the uncomfortable truth?

the rich remains rich because they wear a $10 watch instead of spending $50,000 on a full gold rolex day-date 40. doing that means they're poorer by $50k already.

the very rich don't need a $50k gold rolex to tell others they're loaded. they know that they are - and that is good enough for them already! only some of the insecure not that rich need a full gold rolex to signal to others that they are loaded. in fact the very rich doesn't like to broadcast that they are that rich in public. it makes them an uncomfortable target. in private gated communities and closed door events with security present - well that's an entirely different story - they flash it to their peers till blingdom comes. after all, pointless to have it and not show it off, right?

nevertheless, the very rich who indulge in expensive toys do so not to flaunt. they don't have to. it's just that their toybox budget is bigger and they just want to have fun. that's all. just ask dai dai kor iceflight.

ps. apologies if i inadvertently offend anyone here. not aiming anyone. just my personal general observation. most important is we enjoy our watches within our means. cheers!

Bought from seiko boutique vivo sept 2014, sold to private seller 2 months ago at big loss . Lesson learnt don't buy locally for grand seiko, markup by agent too high Liao. Buy from Japan , go boutique try on watch only

Finally got the Hamilton MR watch fixed. Always been my goal to pass my MR watch to our son when he enlists. Still some time to go so I'll have to keep it going.

Staff at SWATCH were very nice

If any of u wanna sell your "swiss army" MR watch pls let me know. I prefer the new design for casual days.

By the way, how much is the price difference between buy from local and buy from japan for the GS. Previously was considering to get GS or not for their craftsmanship.
