It looks pretty fancy, but it's actually a VW/Porsche collaboration for their new Jetta.

They should learn from Omega. Dummies.

Agreed. Someone is doing well enough in life that they have the time to wait in the typical Friday morning CFA line.

I put them below Omega and at or slightly above Tudor.
Where do you guys put Blancpain? Does anyone have a Villeret? Thoughts on that model?

Great watchmaker, not sure about that model but I'd love a Fifty Fathoms someday.

Just a four door hatchback. Needed something practical

On another note, anyone have any recommendations in Dallas for watch appraisals? I want to switch up my insurance coverage and need someone who is up on market trends for vintage and limited pieces beyond the Rolex world.

Great watchmaker indeed but perhaps its most famous fan is Vlad Putin so there's that....

I don't - but have you posted a picture or sampling of your watch collection in this thread yet?

(Also - if I change my TexAgs handle to "ftac--" is that going to somehow magically elevate my watch collection in the coming years?)

I wouldn't say I have much of a collection. I think I've posted 3 of my 4 "nice" pieces on this thread.

Actually got a new one delivered today but I haven't opened it yet. Pulled the trigger on a Tissot Powermatic 80 in green. I have been wanting a green face and thought of this as a $650 investment to prevent me from buying the new mint green Breitling

I saved money buying a Seagull 1963 this week after deciding to pass on a Milgauss. Fun watch so far...

Happy Masters weekend. I love this thing and there's no way there's another sub $1k watch I would recommend over one of these.

Expanding my search on from Rolex, my dealer thinks he can get one of these for me:


Ethical conundrum: my dealer got one for me. But I also have my hand up for the new lefty GMT. Probably can't afford both. Need to let them know on the Breitling by tomorrow.

Want to keep my DJ41 either way.

nice problem to have.

If you think you'll get the GMT then I'd vote to hold out for that. I feel like you can always get the Breitling in the future, but the GMT won't be close to retail.

I'm seeing them pop up online with a bit more frequency so I'm wondering if they did another run of them.

The color is BEAUTIFUL! Scratches the Daytona itch for me, just hate dropping that much for a Breitling.

Need to get my watch serviced and battery replaced. Movado only has a few authorized service locations and I don't see any in Houston. Since I don't want to mail it in, does anyone have a preferred place they trust for a full servicing? Curious what that would cost as well.
