I for one love that the Daytona has no date function and never will, symmetry is one of the characteristics I love on the Daytona and I really don't want to see it with a cyclops.

And to those who wants a blacked out Sub, Tudor (company owned by Rolex) has a Blacked Out Black Bay. In-house movement, close to Rolex quality for around ~$4k? And this one is easier to get on a discount too? Hard to beat that.

Tudor also has a fluted bezel watch, comes in 28mm, 34mm, 38mm and 41mm.

Daytona would look terrible with a cyclops.
Anyone notice Tag is destroying their watches. Not liking anything they have come out with recently.

Tag sucks, and they are royally screwed next year when the new rules for labelling a timepiece as "Swiss-made" come into effect.

Is that endlink supposed to be like that? Looks terrible with such a wide gap

^ ^ ^ Yes because it comes with an extra leather strap and it'll be difficult to switch if the bracelet were integrated like Rolexes.
And no problem @Three00ZeeX, glad to help if I could.
There's still some tags that sings to my heart, like the Monaco and the Calibre 18 Carrera.

Some off the older ones are nice, but everything the last couple years and the baselworld 2016 watches don't look good. Too busy for my taste.

The novelties they have at Basel this year does look bad, the skeleton face was just executed badly, it looks like a cheap Fossil but they have some nice ones and they did lower the price on the brand so it is more affordable.

Wasn't there that whole beef a while ago with Omega and Costco? I recently seen a bunch of Omegas for the low at my local Costco. I was tempted!

Yah, Omegas sued them but Costco won.

Finally got that black alligator strap I ordered from Oris. Much better.

And then I find out one strap's stitching is damaged. Back to the service center it goes... Oh well. :\

I seen Ben Baller on twitter pretty much scared about Costco selling rolexes now and making it seem as if they're about to put all the authorized dealers out of business, anyone know how true that is?

Looking to cop a Cartier, know it's not NT type of watch, but do they hold value similar to Rolex?

I don't know about that, Costco doesn't have a huge selection plus they aren't considered an authorized dealer so Rolexes new 5-year warranty aren't going to be any good. I'm just an enthusiast though and not on the other side so there might be something going on in that we don't know. If Costco becomes an official authorized dealer and start carrying plenty of stock then I could see it being a huge problem.
Cartier doesn't hold value as well as Rolex, Patek is pretty much the only one that holds value similar to Rolex. Cartier is trying to their best to keep stores from discounting Cartier though to be eventually be like Rolex but I just don't see it happening.

Hey great to hear from you!! Things are good. Family and work keeping me busy. Hope things are well with you. If you want to get into Rolexes the Submariner is classic and usually most people's first.
Costco's randomly sell Rolexes but not regularly or widespread. Basically a non-issue as it's been the same way for years. If nothing else, Rolex is pulling accounts left and right, so that the number of authorized dealers has decreased dramatically.

Soooo these Costco Rolexes....anybody knows the ticket on them?
