Mine got delivered yesterday. Probably will get a different strap. Pretty decent piece for a relatively low price (around 200 delivered)

for the Seinfeld fans: looks like i have a bad gasket, like a terrible gasket.
this was just from sitting on the bathroom counter while I showered. damnit

2 points to mention... 1. Waterproof is not the same as steam proof. 2. Replace and test gaskets regularly. Replacement and testing usually isn't all that expensive. I think I paid 20-30 bucks last time with testing.
hey guys, where did yall say a legit place to buy a used watch was? I'm looking for a watch for the wife for her 40th birthday but haven't found anything I like around here.
probably Breitling or maybe a Tag, possibly Rolex if it was just right and a great buy.
For a used Rolex (they do not sell new) try Sant Blanc watches located in Branson, Missouri. They have one of the largest inventories of used Rolex’s in the US and there stuff is legit no fakes.
Most of his watches would pass for new and prices are market competitive.
Ask for John he’s a straight shooter and trustworthy.

Thank you. I'm a big fan of Omega also and I forgot to mention that one. Not sure about Cartier. I just don't know anything about them really.

damnit, are we the same person? Wife's 40th is coming at the end of this month, she wants a nice watch and ive been looking all over.
she's found a Rolex she likes but i have a mental block on them, they seem pretentious but maybe I'm wrong
yeah, I'm just not sure the wife would actually be happy if I spent 10k on a watch for her. she'd be a lot more happy with a 2500 ish maybe 3500 watch. I'd be cool with her having a Rolex but I legit think she'd not like it that much and would always be scared to wear it.
Recently tried to get my wife to love the IWC
So I could get a new watch too
The IWC wasn’t quite girly enough so she ended up with an Omega Seamaster.
i did today. vintage, one of a kind from the 70s
I was so impressed with the time keeping of the Seiko I've been wearing for the past month, I bought another. Got a turtle today.
I don't have the amount of disposable cash like some of you dark web organ harvesting heathens here. After my POS Luminox took a crap, I ended up with a Tacline M1000. Seems to be built like a tank with an alleged lifetime warranty. 150m waterproof iirc. Analog / digital, luminous & i can actually read it without glasses.

Rolex founder was suspected Nazi spy
MI5 suspected that the German founder of Rolex was a Nazi spy, the Telegraph can reveal.
Just Great…wearing blue jeans meant you were a nazi & now this.

I have a thread going on another forum. Member reached out to me to check over a Speedy he bought. It was running perfectly so I told him I'd just freshen up the case and bracelet. Didn't go full restoration, just cleaned it up a bit....
thats what I'm looking at too for mine, also the ConstellationView attachment 8743853

so the Rolex i bought for the wife came with only a leather strap, which i think is the way it originally came, but the leather is new, they put the correct Rolex clasp on it. anyone know where i can get a 19mm gold or gold/steel metal bracelet for it as an alternative?
I have a thing for British watches…
Broke out my Bremont Supermarine today… lovely and built like a tank.

I think it was just a rose gold AP, but good eye…I was just amazed at his collection of Patek’s.
he had another two cases like that but sold them for his sons college
I have an MBIII 10th anniversary, its great. Their customer service was awesome when I contacted them after purchasing it.
