The Watch Thread - Part 7

[Beta_Tester]

Over here I see grey dealers offer $17+K, but ADs going at $20K+-.

But 14K really can consider man, worth it.

The profit margin for Grey ppl also quite good. I only see black ones. 2 shops has it.

Bro, mind to share AD?

Yeah man.

DSSD blue my local AD have current stock and is selling at list price. $16080.00

Good price for local buy.

Wow, that's a good price!

HG walk-in price is $20K I think, didn't bother to ask best price from my friend as I'm not interested, but just tempted to get one and resell if I find in Europe.

Same here. If got 2 i hoot liao. I was thinking wether to get both the Hulk to sell. lol.

Ordered it from a buyer called great_tool . Took about 1.5 weeks to arrive.

Direct Link: 7 Pieces THK 5 Gram Diamond Polishing Lapping Paste Pastes Compound 0 25 5 0 | eBay

I thought it was moderately (don't know if this helps) deep. Could feel the scratch if I ran my fingernail over the crystal.

After using this, it's gone. Smooth again.

may i know which micron size did you use to polish your watch?
thanks

Starry starry night.....

Just amazing what a simple change of colour does to the watch

Tag Heuer latest luxury brand to tweak prices on forex

BASEL, Switzerland (Reuters) - Tag Heuer, French luxury group LVMH's (LVMH.PA) biggest watch brand, said on Wednesday it planned to freeze prices in some markets while it cuts them elsewhere in a move to balance out the impacts of the recent jump in the Swiss franc.

Prices will drop an average 8 percent in Switzerland, China, the United States, the Caribbean, and Central and South America, 7 percent in the UK and 13 percent in Hong Kong, but Tag Heuer said it would not raise prices in the euro zone, Japan or Singapore.

"Tag Heuer is seizing the opportunity of the recent appreciation of the Swiss franc to rebalance its international price policy," it said in a statement.

just notice they ****** up the typography for the hi beat. its different from the everything else. not fond of plated stuff in the indices and hands if its plated. at 7k they better use gold. no doubt it will sell like hot cakes being 700 pieces limited ed.

This is a diver’s watch worthy of a fifty year anniversary. Its design echoes that of Seiko’s very first hibeat diver’s watch from the 1960’s, but its specifications are the most advanced in the field. It has a one-piece titanium case and, thanks to this, the L-shaped gasket and other features, it is impermeable to helium and suitable for saturation diving. The rotating bezel is securely fixed to the case with four screws next to the 12 and 6 o’clock positions. It has the new Lumibrite for enhanced legibility. The 8L55 movement is specially optimized and adapted for use in a diver’s watch with this structure. This caliber beats at 36,000 vibrations per hour and has a power reserve of 55 hours, and it is also assembled by Seiko’s leading craftsmen at the Shizuku-ishi Watch studio. Each watch comes with both a titanium bracelet with extender, and a black extra-strength silicone strap. Offered in a special presentation box, just 700 pieces will be made, each with its own serial number.

The usual HI-BEAT font is in San Serif which is different from the rest IIRC.
