The Watch Thread - Part 4

[yattokame]

Always wanted a PP but it's beyond me now. Have been spending too much on my boys. Must also save for rainy day! Will wait till they are older before getting a PP.

新年快乐， 万事如意， 恭喜发财， 身体健康， 龙马精神， 事事顺利, 年年有余， 心想事成。

Huat ah!

pal, spending on children is way better and more meaningful than spending on a watch

I have seen pre own shop listing rolex w sg receipt bought 1 day ago.. Offer price was Immediate 15% discount from receipt price. So the seller probably even took a bigger hit when he sold to shop. But he prob just wanted to 'encash'

15% dep in a day... Just abt right

 

[socketer]

The watch prob already bought w a discount by original buyer, who sold it to pre-owned shop on the same day. Pre-owned shop gave additional 15% discount over the receipt price which means the original buyer probably sold to shop at least 50% off his receipt price.

I don't think pre own shop if buy direct fr THG will present the receipt for resale. They will just list as BNIB.

THG got this 40mth interest free promo... Maybe the buyer just needed this interest-free loan with 40% administrative charge? Works out to be a better deal than compounding monthly at 24%PA

Google it and found out it is the 214270 explorer 1, 39mm.

Any thoughts on this rolex model? My take that it is simple yet classy. Kinda tempted liao, seeing how my relative carry it off

 

[slow_mo]

That's a handsome piece of metal!!

 

[Jeremy1]

No doubt it's Rolex sport model but it more toward a dress watch as what i feel.

 

[aerolord]

[tpmmark]

HUAT AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TeenTitan01]

Here more and more people getting PP, thanks to Bro yattokame poisoning............................

why no love for ap here, lol?

got nautilus alr must also share the love with ap ro mah...

only the jumbo ultra thin blue petite tapisserie dial in 39mm will do!

 

[TeenTitan01]

PP will always be a fantasy for me

Btw any bros can advise on the new Rolex Explorer 1, think is 39mm one. Saw my relative wore it. seem quite classy

Rolex Explorer, 36mm

do note that there's NO LUME on the hour markers at 3,6,9 positions which mars the lume appearance imo.

There is one mint Exp 2 now selling at $5.6K.

hmmm... that's the older model with the spindly red GMT hand which looks too thin to carry off the arrow head (do not like). the newer one is has the MAXI dial and beefier ORANGE hand (now we're talking!).

but... the king of explorer IIs is still the ref 1655 "steve maqueen" of the 70s imo.

Precision Watch Enterprise :: 1974 Rolex Steve McQueen EXPLORER II with Mark II dial Ref 1655
