Apparently @Swaye and @PurpleBaze exude both power and dangerously attractive nonchalance:

Pro-tip boys: If you want to push the look (of the Daytona) to its limit, try wearing it with one of this season's structured menswear-inspired shirts—and leave a few buttons strategically undone.

I do not own this, but have been poking around H Moser lately. Nice watches.

You are not an Arab but you are hairy as fuck like swaye.PurpleBaze said:Swaye's other thread about his blue dial Rolex inspired me to take a picture of my Oris Aquis in the sun. The picture turned out well. I sexted this picture to Swaye, @YellowSnow, & @UW_Doog_Bot earlier, but figured I should share it with the rest of the class.

Rolex watches and Ducati motorcycles...
Went for a nice ride this afternoon. I've ridden three days in a row and the Daytona has been on my wrist for all the rides. This is a fantastic watch and I love wearing it.
Yes, the blue dial Datejust gets enough love and attention too. -

I'm not really one for the aged look, but there might be a few here who can appreciate this and the asking price.

Lots of truth to that. But I do own two APs, and while they are without question a better watch (finishing, movement, etc.), a strong case can be made for Rolex depending on your needs. APs and PPs can be delicate, particularly PP, while Rolex are bulletproof. For a really active sporty lifestyle, I'd rather have a Rolex than either of the others if I could only have one watch. But yeah, sole Rolex owners are often douchbags who honestly think they just bought the best in the world and wouldn't know a Patek, Audemars, Lange or FPJ if it bit them in the ass.USMChawk said:For @Swaye and @ PurpleBaze

Rare watch. What is going on with the bezel insert is called ghosting. People pay huge money for inserts that are old and weathered like that. Impossible to replicate that look. It takes decades to achieve. Kind of surprised the dial and hands don't have more patina. Might be service parts. Here is an old pic of a beautiful 16750 (like world class) I owned for awhile before I let a good friend talk me out of it as it was his dream watch.BleachedAnusDawg said:I'm not really one for the aged look, but there might be a few here who can appreciate this and the asking price.

Now that is patina! And totally original and totally unpolished original state. Extremely rare in this condition. And yes, it was extremely expensive for a GMT.

Dude, that FPJ is so next level I can't even explain it. I will probably never own a nicer watch. This is peak for me. And I got lucky and picked it up before they exploded in price. So lucky. That fucker would go for 60K+ now. The salmon is the rarest configuration of this watch (Centigraphe), and only 16 were ever made. Crazy.Doogles said:

@Swaye thoughts on this 1600 dollar gshock
https://www.ablogtowatch.com/casio-g-shock-camo-titanium-gmw-b5000tcm-1/
I’m basically in love with it, but am really struggling to justify the price. I want it at 800-1000. I’m bored with the constellation (the ex gave it back after the breakup and it’s too feminine for my wrist) and I could see myself trading for it.
Titanium DLC with laser print camo looks nice to me.

Terrible admission but I have never owned a G Shock. Most of my hardcore watch collector buddies have at least one, and sometimes multiple. Lots also have Garmin Fenix watches. Nobody has an Apple Watch, because those are for fags.Doogles said:@Swaye thoughts on this 1600 dollar gshock

If I ever bought a G-Shock, and I probably should, one like that is what I would gravitate towards. I think that thing is funky cool. I need to go look at G-Shocks, and Garmins. I should probably own one because doing yard work in a 12K Rolex is sort of stupid. I am known as a stupid person.
I'd say get it. I am surprised at the price. I thought most top of the line G Shocks were a grand. But, as stated, I do not know the market. -
Update to say I bought a G-Shock. Called the CasiOak because it looks sort of like an AP Royal Oak. Fun watch. Also nice to not have to change my oil wearing a Rolex.
Also picked up a REALLY nice independent watch during the lockdown. Urban Jurgensen. The finishing on this thing is next level. Only 50 made, with a champagne dial. Classic 3 hander with Breguet numerals, from a legendary boutique hand made brand. Covid also helped bring pricing down to reasonable numbers. UJs are hardly ever sold on the secondary market. They only make something like 300 watches per year, by hand. So when collectors get them they usually keep them. I was VERY fortunate to get this.

How am I, of all people, the one to revive this thread? Picked up a Golden Turtle. Extremely comfortable and I have a mega boner for the gold case. Still working on my shitty photo skills. NTD, BB.
-
Mega boner engaged! Thats a sweet watch! I suppose I should show my new diver as well. Well, if you count a bad ass vintage diver from 1987 as new. The Steve McQueen Rolex 5513 Submariner!
Love the Golden Turtle buddy. Great looking watch!
