VPI Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Got tired of watching watches randomly spin so I started on my traveling watch case project. Can't decide if I will just use the foam in the straps or put them all on the pillows they came on. Also can't decide which others to add to to case for this big three day Vegas trip.

VPI Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Maybe I should pick up this rare Swiss watch. My link
tyrion Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I was thinking more like this. It would look good next to that Panerai:
VPI Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I got one of those for High School graduation. Now everyone and their dog has one so it never gets any wrist time. The Anal is much rarer.

Duggeh Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I got one of those for High School graduation. Now everyone and their dog has one so it never gets any wrist time. The Anal is much rarer. I'm the opposite. I never remove my Rolex. I also like that it never gets noticed.

deepak Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I am still drawn in by the 2010 Explorer. It has such a classic timeless (lol) look. I will cave in some time
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I have a Rolex that was handed down to me when my grandfather passed away (which fortunately didn't spend any time hidden in anyone's anus). I keep it locked up in a safe to pass on to my son someday I believe it's the same as this model I'm pretty happy just sticking with my 6th gen Nano as a watch, or wearing my Casio or Invicta if I need waterproof. I worry too much about an expensive watch getting damaged or lost, or people trying to take advantage of me because I have a nice watch and they think I'm made of money.
tyrion Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I got one of those for High School graduation. Now everyone and their dog has one so it never gets any wrist time. The Anal is much rarer. Neither I nor my dogs have one. Send to us, all three of us will make sure it gets wrist time.
Dusty Chalk Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Posted March 17, 2011 Are you sure you wouldn't rather receive the anal? I think even your dogs would have an opinion on that.

I have one from my grandfather as well though it's not working and needs to be rebuilt/refurbished and has no watch band. It's going to be really expensive.

It's going to be really expensive. Yes is is. I sent my working Zenith to get serviced and it came back $700+ later. That said it looked brand new which is one of the advantages of getting them serviced with the company.
VPI Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Yeah typical service charges can be pretty shocking at first. I honestly think the makers base their service charges on the price of the watch sometimes. My what watch are you wearing shot for the day. B&R on NATO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Voltron Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 What's the low > high thing all about? Radiation?
VPI Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Power reserve. I evidently have not moved enough today.
Dreadhead Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Power reserve. I evidently have not moved enough today. I was going to ask if you'd just put it on. Time to do some hand winding on that one.
laxx Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Probably picking up a Planet Ocean soon to complement my Speedmaster since a friend just started working at Omega and I hear the discount is 50%. =] Makes me kind of sad that I could have saved ~$1000 on the Speedy.
tyrion Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Damn, I need a friend that works at Omega. I love my P.O.
VPI Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Okay, I am set for my travels. If I buy anything in Vegas then Colin will just have to ditch his stuff and transport the watches back for me in his bags.
