I used to care about this stuff a long time ago, but my muscle / sports car doog died a good 10-15 years ago. I'm just another pathetic middle-aged loser now. I have an SUV, which Yella makes fun of anyway. He reminds me that it's a mom car. Yella can be a real hurtful jerk sometimes.BleachedAnusDawg said:
Muscle car hawt talk is in short supply around here. Sad. I would think with all the rich people on this bored there would be more interested in the car scene.
I have a solid rear axle in my ride, like @Swaye -

That's totally inaccurate. I don't have an AK-47.YellowSnow said:PurpleBaze said:

What are good sites to shop used watches? I check eBay occasionally but there are a bunch of seemingly random sites I've never heard of that I find myself going down the rabbit hole on. I don't know that I'd be comfortable pulling the trigger if I found my deal on any of them.Swaye said:
Every man should have a nice watch. Doesn't have to cost a thousand bucks (or tens of thousands). Just something nice that suits you. Good luck in your hunt. Take a look at Oris. Touch more expensive, but absolutely stellar entrance into "real" watches.BleachedAnusDawg said:
This one, while nice, is a little busy for my taste. I think I prefer just a basic face without extra marks or dials, etc.USMChawk said:This is a good deal for a Hamilton Jazzmaster.

Appreciate the input, Watch Sensei. I have, quite literally, never owned or worn a watch in my life. Probably will never buy anything high-end, but am thinking about something that looks nice enough for work that can still be worn casually on occassion. Needs to be 36-40mm range in size because I do not have big, meaty rowers wrists.Swaye said:Tissot and Hamilton are considered entry level "nice watches." My first "nice" watch was actually a Hamilton many years ago. I love them. I have never bonded as much with Tissot, but they make a fine watch at their price point.
edit: And don't be afraid to buy used. Some fantastic deals to be found on used timepieces. You can find watches that were originally 3 grand for less than half that.
It's not made anymore, but I've been half-assed shopping this one on and off for years;

I feel like used Omegas are a good value in the $2K to $3k give or take range. Does that sound about right @Swaye ?minion_doog said:

@BleachedAnusDawg check out Seiko presage for a classy kick ass automatic. Here's a link it took me a few seconds to look up for one at Macy'sBleachedAnusDawg said:I could not find a general watch thread (I'm too lazy to search) so I'll ask here. For my watch whores, is this an ok watch as far as being on the cheap end? There are several variations on color/strap.

Edit: that link is broken, but here is another I found on eBay on a leather strap so it's more similar to your original pic at a better price, used though.

Omegas are beautiful watches that aren't in a bubble which is nice.Doogles said:
