    500-700k for an unworn, safety deposit Rolex with all papers and receipts like Paul Newman used to wear ... nice.

    BleachedAnusDawg decided he wanted to buy an automatic diver and you'll never guess what happened next!

    Watch won't arrive until next week. It's not a Rolex or anything, but it was on a killer sale for $188, so what the hell? Seiko SRPD95. I guess this is the replacement for the SKX. *Not my hand.*

    Oh yeah, almost for to show my favorite watch again.



    36 years old, but currently in LA getting serviced.

    Oh yeah, picked up this gem a few months ago as well:



    That's 5 of my current watches. No plans to flip any of them. I have 8 watches in total right now, and I am very happy with the collection.

    I know AUDEMARS PIGUET is a very high end watch but I find them to be ugly as sin. I’m just boring I suppose.

    Its an acquired taste but once you "get it" they are super super nice. Unreal finish and the most comfortable bracelet in the business. I love it. And that watch is very hard to get a hold of. The Jumbo 15202.

    out of those five watches the only one I would be able to tell the time on would be the Panerai - it at least has numbers for some of us that challenged in the o'clocks.

    I have just don't have a good sense of time - I need my cheap ass watches that I can read in an instant and know I am late to whatever

    Something about the Audemars says "Tesla truck" to me.

    Why should Preston have one and not Swaye?

    1) LOVE the FP JOURne watch! I’ve always loved their aesthetic.

    Journe are some of the finest watches made today. I simply love them, and his story. Only downside is he's French, but his watches are sublime.

    2) Dig the Piguet. I like how it has a very industrial (for lack of a better word) feel. Very unique.

    AP is in the Holy Trinity, and this watch is Gerald Genta's masterwork in my mind.

    3) “Oregon Ducks” Daytona? Really @Swaye?

    Where's my bleach?

    4) People still make friendship bracelets?

    My niece sends them to me from the reservation.

    I have it on good authority a baller watch may be showing up in this thread soon. Not mine either.

    @Swaye - I really want this Chronometre Bleu:



    What do you think of the FP Journes vs. A.Lange Sohne watches?
  • Moderator, Swaye's Wigwam Posts: 41,739 Founders Club

    I don’t understand what is happening.
    The two watches I showed are around 85K brand new, so don't try to understand. It will only hurt you in the end by freakishly tall friend.

    It’s good that I excel at sucking up to my relatives for hand me down luxury Swiss watches. Otherwise, I’m too pour to be in the watch game.
    If you're looking for a deal on a Vincero, I know a guy
