I just picked up a Jupiter at the swatch store at Northpark Dallas. They said they have several.

He's wearing a Whoop band which is a fitness type tracker.

OK, all. At the risk of ridicule from some posters on here, in the words of Dave Grohl, "I've got another confession to make" about this watch: I don't think it's for me.

Couple things that are making this a no-go for me:
1. Main one: the hands are too skinny for my old eyes. Hard for me to see the time quickly/easily. and
2. Can't get used to the band. Yes, I know I can change that out but think that would take away the overall aesthetics and point of the watch.

So, before I post this elsewhere, anyone interested in a trade or purchase?

Don't be embarrassed. Be proud you're better than some $200 Swatch.

yeah, I didn't love the band included with the Swatch collab.

You could always throw on the Omega Velcro that they sell for the Speedmaster (assuming it fits), but it might be a little silly to spend nearly as much on a replacement band as the watch itself.

The hand issue looks to be worse with the burgundy version because of the two-tone color scheme with the lighter outside.

I put mine on this Crown & Buckle strap and it's a pretty good match to the bezel:

Dammit! Put me in line, but I doubt it makes it this far. My daughter would love it to go along with my Speedy.

I have an early 1970s Rolex Datejust with original box and all papers. Is there anywhere I can go to get it appraised and see what a value might be for insurance purposes?

Sorry to ask and not search, but this thread is 200+ pages long...

TIA

Ok, I'm looking for thoughts on my next watch. Right now my only "high end" watch is a 3861 Moonwatch. I'd like to add a nice blue face watch. Options below. Thanks for any thoughts and convo!

Considerations:
- price
- movement
- availability (obviously)

Rolex OP41


Rolex DJ41


Omega AT41




And a Moonwatch shot...

So, I recently got my Monaco back from servicing from TAG and they pretty much rebuilt the movement and now, I am pretty sure it is 2 minutes fast a day. It took 6+ months to get serviced last time. Anyone have any idea if someone local could regulate it for a more reasonable time and cost?
