That platinum moon watch is beautiful. This is saying ~60k, def not in my range.

Wouldn't be buying an Omega for $60k, that's for sure.

Just picked up a DD40. As much as I love the 15300OR, it doesn't feel that substantial on my wrist and I find myself wearing my old GMT way more.

Very nice Rolex. How much do those usually cost ?

I'm looking to get a fake sky dweller next week

Man...I need that.

Worn and Wound’s Shell Cordovan strap is official. If anyone was on the fence about their offerings, just buy it. Quality for the price point.

I've gotten to be friends with a watch dealer and fam told me that every piece that you want is just at the back. Dude sells as much as 40 watches a month mostly Rolex's and Pateks.
Blue face Sky Dweller's and other sport rolex's are just at the back.

Got the call for my blue 15500st last week and went to pick it up on Sunday. After getting it sized, I like the dimensions a bit better than on my ROC. Slightly more comfortable and less top heavy. When they sized the watch they took off the hang tag and when I got home it wasn't in the box. I have to call and see if they still have it, I really hope they didn't throw it away.

They always have more than what's in the showcase. I wouldn't say they have every single watch in the back but they will hold a lot for either VIP customers (celebrity) or people willing to bundle a high dollar piece in order to get some candy.

Y’all insuring your watches or no?

Your gold Rolex? Yes I would.

Congrats on the pickup. Hang tag shouldn't affect resale.. It's not a Rolex

This is true. The bundles to get the hyped pieces are crazy these days. Offered to purchase a Lange to get a Patek from my AD recently... still no dice. They'd welcome the sale of the Lange but not a chance for the Patek. I hate the watch game these days.

Anyway, while we wait their shenanigans out... Picked this up yesterday. Should keep me occupied while waiting for the ceramic one.

Watches are insured under my homeowner policy.

Nice pickups on this page.

Currently in Vegas. Always remembered the Rolex boutique at the Wynn having rare pieces (leopard Daytona, etc.). They literally have nothing but a handful of DJ36s and a couple of flooded DD40s. Such a sad sight. The SAs didn't look too happy--I bet they are selling hardly anything.

does your policy specifically include your watches or are they just under personal property? i actually just bought my first house and your post reminded me that on my insurance it just has an amount for personal property.

Finally figured out how to make a leather strap onto the Elegante 48. Journe doesn't make any other than the nice factory rubber strap (yet). Dresses up the piece nicely. Working on different strap ideas soon.

is the dial on that porcelain?

 

[zk1mpls]

is the dial on that porcelain?

No. The company describes it as luminescent sapphire. The glossy finish does look similar to porcelain, come to think of it.The whole dial glows in the dark. Pretty neat approach to illumination.

that is sick!

id put it on my night stand and use it as a clock at night
