I have really nice watches and a beat up pickup with fading paint job.

Thank you! And thanks for putting up with my kiddos! I hope you love your rock! Haha

Also here's the sky flake. I didn't snag a photo of the 1926 but it was a great combo



Another exception I would make. Dislike gold on my watches but this is beautiful.

lol. I guess that's why I really like it then. It's not actually gold.

That's what caught my eye first in your pic.
But we did use the Bronco heated seats last week....ironically an upgrade over the old LR4

Finally got my Neptune MoonSwatch last week in Vegas, along with the Earth Phase and White Snoopy Moon Phase. Took 2 years to find the Neptune, but they seem to be more available now. Next step is to get some new bands for some of the ones I wear more often.

What did you get?!
A skyflake and tudor 1926 with opaline dial. Was going to get a black bay, but impulse-bought a black-dial breitling superocean chronograph (white subdials) as a daily last weekend so when FTAC responded with info on the skyflake and black bay, I switched up the black bay for something a little different. Watch addiction is new and wanted variance.

Absolutely love the skyflake. Thought about getting one a few months back, but went with a Toge, instead. Might eventually still get the skyflake one day, especially with that blue alligator strap. That strap is non-OEM, correct? I don't think I've seen one like that before.

That's the oem strap that comes on the skyflake. Blue crocodile leather.

I guess the lighting I always see them in online makes the strap look black. Regardless, looks great.

Serious question... Why all the hate for Tag Heuer watches? I found one I absolutely love, but if they're junk I'll get something else.

They are not junk, they are just in the lowest tier as you get into luxury watches (but still a luxury watch and better than what the vast majority of watch wearers wear), and they received flak for some of their designs over the past decade plus that looked a little "mall watchy".

But I believe they have picked up their game in the past few years and make some great watches. They have great history. Get your Tag.

I have an aquaracer, and while I like it generally, it does have some sharp edges on the clasp that would be cleaned up on a nicer watch.

Tag claims the first Swiss watch to orbit the earth.







And no, I did not wake up today expecting I'd spend it defending Tag Heuer...

Dude, the new Skipper looks great! That's on the short list of watches I have my eye on.

Is it possible to buy a new Rolex Date just in a store in Houston without the ridiculous wait or cat and mouse game they like to play about inventory?

Or is everyone just buying from Chrono24?

Hi, nice to meet you. I'm your local Aggie watch dealer. I come in trench coats with cash, watches, and diamonds in the pockets.

Just kidding…. but on a serious note pm me, I can help you find what you want.

Chrono 24 can be a good place to look to get a general idea of what price you're looking at for any watch model, but absolutely PM FTAC2011 and let him see what he can find before buying anywhere else.

Love the skyflake! Fun watch. Congrats!


Thanks, OC!

Never used imgur.give it a shot here. The watches from FTAC and random Breitling from chrono24. Re the poster on the band - blue is standard as I understand. Will most likely get a metal band and/or a tan leather also.

Are you really kidding, cause when you posted this pic I could definitely envision a trench coat involved somehow...

My guess is its still quite difficult and unlikely to walk in and find what you are looking for. FTAC is probably your best bet for something like a DJ.

Most people are probably not buying from Chrono24. Some are, but not most.

Some folks like myself have a long-standing relationship with an AD, some people have great contacts like FTAC, some people buy and sell on here, some people are looking for "higher end" (precious metal) pieces that have higher price tags and are thus easier to obtain due to less demand, etc

I didn't know Ralph Lauren made watches. I assume they really don't and it's outsourced. Never seen one. Is it really considered luxury and on par with something Grand Seiko? I find that hard to believe.

You can buy a Rolex Datejust on Amazon.

Why would anybody put up with BS from a brick and mortar store?
