I really want one but I'll wait until they come out. Unfortunately zenith get no respect and their value plunges like a rock, so you can get some amazing deals.

Really like the new Zenith Chronomaster sport.

that is super sharp. definitely a better option than a daytona, imo.

They are awesome watches and that new chrono is legit, but their value will drop like a bad habit. Its a shame because they are such great watches and easily make the best chronograph. I know its about double but you will be better served going with the Daytona knowing you will damn near always get back what you paid if not more. I tell my wife its just a hedge against inflation...

i buy watches because i like them, not because i'm using them as a store of value. if there is a good deal on the used market to be had, i'll definitely look at it, though.

i'd rather get a zenith i really like than chase a daytona for double or more the price.

120hz is the true hi-beat.

I can appreciate that. I just cannot in good conscience buy something that I likely will not keep for more than five years then take a bath on it-knowing there is something similar (Daytona) that will hold it's value.

You may as well just buy/trade sport cars. Would probably be more fun.

why only keep it for 5 years or less?

Unless I consider it a "grail" watch (I hate that term) I get fixated on the latest and greatest or maybe just one I have always thought was really cool and trade towards it. I have 5 Rolex, 3 Tudors, and a Cartier. A year from now I am sure this will not look the same.

If you can buy it used for 50-60% of retail, I'd consider it

Great store. And I gave you credit for the referral, now you'll just have to convince them you are NRD09 haha.

Tony did a great job of explaining the history of GP which is a hugely pedigreed and renowned watch maker that flies under the radar. The watch really felt quality and is obviously like nothing else I've got in my collection (not a lot of glass carbon fiber hybrids out there) so I had to go with it after he offered a 15% discount

Ha nice thanks! Wonder what they do for referrals? Guarantee if i walk in those doors they will come out ahead!

Haha, I don't know if they do anything, but they asked how I heard about them and I showed them the thread.

Anyone have thoughts on the Chopard Mille miglia GTS power control? Don't have much experience with Chopard other than by reputation.

I've never heard of the gts power control but the Chopard Mille Miglia is a highly respected watch

Really a horrible advertisement. The watch doesn't look good, and Aaron looks like crap and annoyed

finally got around to seeing Ford V Ferrari last night, and now I want Shelby's watch.

What would a reasonable price be for this bad boy? They look to be all over the place
