grawk Posted March 10, 2016 Report Posted March 10, 2016 The only time I've seen anyone wear a real one was a picture of Steven Tyler wearing one. There's a replica that made the rounds on a replica forum I used to participate on tho, people were hillarious in it.
Grand Enigma Posted March 10, 2016 Report Posted March 10, 2016 Engraved rehut even... its the current crappy version of the Daytona with their in-house movement.

Fitz Posted March 12, 2016 Report Posted March 12, 2016 Why is the 12'o'clock marker flipping the bird?
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 12, 2016 Report Posted March 12, 2016 I thought it was supposed to be a frank and beans, meatballs and man sausage, twig and berries...
Grand Enigma Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 They have some nice looking watches. Do they do their own manufacturing cases/movements?
Grand Enigma Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 Cool. Nice Snoopy btw. I am sensing someone likes Omega a bit, that's what, about a dozen now?

Dreadhead Posted March 15, 2016 Report Posted March 15, 2016 Glad you are excited Larry and happy birthday. For *me* that is a shit at load of watches.

One less watch today - I sold my Aqua Terra 2503.33 to a deserving buyer, after it came back from Omega for a movement service, and made money on the sale. I had the Snoopy mostly paid for, and the sale went a long way to finishing it off. Gave up one white dial watch for another.
Hopstretch Posted March 16, 2016 Report Posted March 16, 2016 Haven't bought a watch in years now. Which is odd considering I still religiously spend at least a half hour a day checking the grey dealers, forums and Chrono 24 to keep up with what's out there. Might just sell the lot to create some impetus and start from scratch again under the pretense of building a "rational collection." 5

I just have nothing I am all that interested in purchasing. I haven't even been into the safe in half a year and have been switching out the same two beater watches everyday.
VPI Posted March 16, 2016 Report Posted March 16, 2016 I have an old Nautilus. It is okay but I am not a huge fan of the looks and would not even think of paying that much for one. 1

Dreadhead Posted March 16, 2016 Report Posted March 16, 2016 I was all set on buying the Seiko 55th Anniversary Spring Drive but then I learned that that it was no lume and my interest waned. We'll see if I can find something that interests me. I sort of like the Tag tourbillon but I'm not sure I want to spend that much.
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 16, 2016 Report Posted March 16, 2016 Watchvaultnyc has a couple of 145.022 69-ST watches for sale, if you want a pre-moon Speedmaster. 1
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 My next watch shipped today after being on a 6 week back order. Then I have another watch that should ship on Friday, that I pre-ordered back in October last year. So they don't count when I say I won't buy more for a little bit, since they were already on order

Augsburger Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 Jacob, can you provide a few more close up shots of the Everest strap for that Explorer?
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 Here are a few of my Blue Everest strap.
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 18, 2016 Report Posted March 18, 2016 INCOMING! Next one is here tomorrow (NOMOS Ltd Ed). And then my last watch purchase (of the 1st quarter) will be here on Tuesday... 2
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 18, 2016 Report Posted March 18, 2016 NOMOS Orion Timeless Midnight Limited Ed arrived - pre-ordered in October 2015.
