What's the story on Revue Thommen watches? They typically list for >$2,000 on the manufacturer's website, but they're all over the internet for $600. It looks like they use SW200 movements in their dive watches, and there are other examples that use those near the manufacturer's price. This is the one that jumped out at me, but the big discounts make me worry it's a junk watch.
I'm guessing the msrp is a bit of a farce. $600 seems around the price you'd pay for a sellita movement with decent other features for a no-name microbrand.
they're not junk watches but they have appropriated their marketing style. Much like Invicta, they claim several thousand dollar MSRP's but always sell for 70% off or so.
the real RevueThommen was an esteemed aircraft instrumentation manufacturer and made watches for the Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe, twenty years or so ago they licensed the name to a swiss watchmaker so they could just focus on airplane instrumentation.

I assumed that the no-name nature of the brand had something to do with it, but at $600 it's still a good bit cheaper than CW C60 or Oris Sixty-Five.

How dare you disparage Invicta watches! You can't buy watches like these anywhere else! Watches like these are pure class.
This 60mm horological classic is only $7,700 and comes with over 3.4 carats of diamonds AND a signed certificate of authenticity by Eyal Lalo. Top that.

I mean, where are you going to find watches like this anywhere else?

Holy **** their website is designed like their watches. Now I feel like I smell like mall kiosk Gypsy
Ah, so y'all are into that kind of real estate…
I don't see any diamonds on that watch.
That looks like something cardi bs even more hoodrat cousin would wear.
Just received this sexy ref1680 submariner. Dial and hands have perfectly matching patina. It dates to 1975.
Is this the kind of thing that sells at a discount to current models? Or on par or more?

Much more I think, about $20k
I think I'm going to have to pass on this one.
Vintage is all over the place. Literally the same exact model can range anywhere from 10-40k. It depends on condition, polish history, patina on bezel, hands, dial, bracelet condition and matching year clasp, and more.
So many factors.
This one in particular.. positives: the hands and dial patina match perfectly which mean the hands were never swapped in a service. It has a "ghost bezel" which is the faded black which is sought after as well. The lugs are thick and evenly shaped. Negatives: the og oyster bracelet is not with it (I have a super cool and rare joske jubilee bracelet that came with it), it has been polished before, and it does not have the box and papers.
Silian would be spot on if some of the negatives were moved over to the positives but this one is a little less. I value it at 15k

Speaking of "vintage," I've always like this Omega heritage seamaster.
Me too. I like it much more than the normal seamaster.
If I was going to get an Omega, it would be that or the Bond titanium Seamaster.
Ed White 321 Speedmaster for me, just for the movement.

Great minds
Saw this dude at a concert in Dallas tonight. Not seen this before, but admittedly I'm mostly into Panerai. He said it's pretty high end. Wtf is it?
Can't see it

That one in bronze gold is awesome
Don't know what happened. This is the watch
If it's real it's a 6 figure Patek
Had a fun time at some Rolex stores in Singapore today but none of them had anything to sell
What's that mean
I think this is it:

The maker is Patek Philippe and it costs about $100k
All I know is that really nice watch looks way too small on that guys enormous wrist
