Love that Seiko.

Hate that FP Journe. Abstract fairy tale looking crap. $100K?! Yuck.

Villain from "No Country For Old Men" except the last name was modified so that it pronounced like the most prevalent racial slur in this country.

Anton YT?

His newest one is still up. It doesn't take much to understand it's along the same lines.

Can someone fill me in on the discussion? Whose username are we talking about?

I was going to post the South Park wheel of fortune gif/meme, but I don't think I'm going to

Two new usernames incorporating thinly veiled uses of the N word popped up in the thread.

Once there were brook trout in the streams in the mountains. You could see them standing in the amber current where the white edges of their fins wimpled softly in the flow. They smelled of moss in your hand. Polished and muscular and torsional. On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again. In the deep glens where they lived all things were older than man and they hummed of mystery.

Is this from a Rolex commercial?

Interesting. Why are these not on the Seiko site?

They doing a Genesis/Hyundai thing here?

From what I've seen Seiko markets Grand Seiko and Seiko separately, I suppose it very similar to a car manufacturers main vs luxury line.

Here's the link to that site:

Had no idea Seiko made $185K watches!!

I love this one, but I have an affinity towards titanium watches. My primary watch before my Rolex was a titanium Seiko. Light as air.

Great primer video in general.

Now I really want a Grand Seiko.

Yeah YouTubers and their microlense cameras can be dangerous for a watch budget.

That video just drives home how dumb I am when compared to the guys who create these movements.

For a certain milestone my wife is buying me a watch and I'm really struggling between a sea master and an IWC pilot. I already have a speedmaster. Anything else I should Consider in the 5-7k range?!

Maybe a Santos de Cartier or Glashutte Original Sixties if you are looking for something a little more dressy.

Breitling Navitimer
Omega Aquaterra
Omega Speedmaster moonwatch
Cartier Santos

Those are 2 very different watches. What about them do you like? What is your planned usage? Preferred color / metal combo?


Maybe that will help us narrow something down.

The moonwatch looks great on almost anything. Such a monster.

It's a sickness.
